Lyrics
All of the things you wanted were just outside your atmosphere
All the things desired were just beyond one's reach, outside their immediate environment.
And if you could just have them you would be happy apart from me
If the person could attain those desires, they would find happiness, even if it meant being separate from the speaker.
And it took a while but it was more than worth the wait
After a considerable wait, the outcome or result was more valuable than the time invested.
The rain was falling when you said "I'm leaving"
The moment of departure was marked by rain, creating a poignant atmosphere.
I had to watch you go
The speaker had to witness the departure of the person they are addressing.
I want this fall to change
The speaker desires a transformative change during the fall season.
I never heard you say that you were wrong
The person never admitted fault or apologized; the speaker never heard them say they were wrong.
You picked out your path but didn't you ever wonder if I was ok?
The person chose their own path, and the speaker wonders if they ever considered the speaker's well-being.
And doesn't the guilt eat up your mind? I just thought I'd ask
The speaker questions whether guilt consumes the person's thoughts and casually asks about it.
And it took a while but it was more than worth the wait
Reiteration that the wait, although prolonged, was ultimately worthwhile.
This year October came
Refers to the arrival of October this year, possibly signifying a change or significant event.
All these questions hid in me so long
The speaker harbors unanswered questions within them for a considerable time.
I just want to hear you say you were wrong
The speaker longs to hear an acknowledgment of wrongdoing from the addressed person.
