Just To Remember
Longing for Closure: The Tale of Love's Illusions
Lyrics
Been other places but they don't get you off my mind
Reflecting on being in other places but unable to forget someone.
Walked into bars but can't seem to turn back the time
Entered social spaces, yet unable to reverse or relive past moments.
Handwritten letters I know will never see the light
Acknowledging that certain feelings expressed in letters may remain undisclosed.
Over and over you say need to take some time
Repeated advice to take time for oneself in the face of difficulties.
I don't wanna hold on just to remember
Expressing a desire to avoid clinging to memories.
Fell in love with such a good pretender
Falling in love with someone skilled at pretending or hiding true emotions.
Don't you think that I deserve much better
Asserting a deservingness for a higher quality of love or relationship.
Much better
Reiterating the desire for something better.
I was more than just a part-time lover
Claiming a more significant role than a casual lover in the relationship.
Said I'd leave but you know I would never
Despite promises to leave, expressing an enduring commitment.
Fell for when you said it was forever
Recalling falling for the idea of a forever-lasting connection.
Forever
Emphasizing the concept of forever in the context of the relationship.
Thursday your mine but by Monday we fall apart
Highlighting the fragility of a relationship that appears solid on Thursday but crumbles by Monday.
So close yet so far now we go back to the start
Despite closeness, facing the reality of restarting the relationship.
What's it gonna take for you to open up your heart
Pleading for emotional openness from the partner.
You see your flaws but believe me they're a work of art
Acknowledging flaws but considering them as unique and artistic.
I don't wanna hold on just to remember
Reiterating the reluctance to hold on to memories.
Fell in love with such a good pretender
Reemphasizing falling in love with a skilled pretender.
Don't you think that I deserve much better
Asserting the deservingness of a better relationship.
Much better
Reiterating the desire for something better.
I was more than just a part-time lover
Asserting a more substantial role in the relationship.
Said I'd leave but you know I would never
Stating the commitment despite previous indications of leaving.
Fell for when you said it was forever
Reflecting on the belief in a forever-lasting relationship.
