So You're Gone
Embracing Transience: Reflections on Love's Departure
Lyrics
Take it in
Expressing the idea of taking a moment in.
I never thought a view like you could exist
Surprised by the existence of someone or something with a remarkable view or essence.
But I could feel you slipping
Sensing the gradual loss or departure of the mentioned presence.
Sun's already setting
Noting the setting of the sun, possibly symbolizing an ending or closure.
Down below the water
Describing a location below the water, suggesting a deep emotional state or change.
Makes me start to wonder
Expressing a sense of curiosity or contemplation about the situation.
Can't be like this forever
Recognizing the impermanence of the current state.
If I knew any better
If the speaker had better knowledge, they would understand the situation differently.
I'd know I couldn't try
Acknowledging the impossibility of trying to change the situation.
This is it
Indicating a realization that this is the decisive moment.
Losing grip
Experiencing a loss of control or connection.
There's nothing left that I could do
Feeling powerless, with no further actions to take.
But man it hurts to feel you slip
Expressing emotional pain at witnessing the gradual departure of the significant other.
I guess that I'll get over it
Anticipating eventual healing and moving on from the hurt.
You were always meant to move on, on
Acknowledging that the departure was inevitable, and the person was meant to move forward.
So you're gone, gone
Confirming the departure of the significant other.
You exist
Affirming the continued existence of the departed in memory.
Now only as a memory I miss
Highlighting the departed's status as a missed memory.
Replay you when I'm lonely
Replaying memories of the departed during moments of loneliness.
Remembering the only
Recalling the significant moment and the only time strong emotions were felt.
Time that I felt something
Describing the intensity of the past emotion, almost elevating it to a sacred or holy level.
So real it's almost holy
Emphasizing that such intense emotions are not everlasting.
Can't be like that forever
Reiterating the impermanence of intense emotions, now with better understanding.
Now that I know better
Acknowledging that the moment was a final goodbye.
I know that was goodbye
Realizing that the goodbye was definitive.
That was it
Confirming the completion of the departure process.
Lost my grip
Expressing the feeling of losing control.
There's nothing that
Reiterating the absence of any possible actions.
I could've done
Feeling the pain of the gradual departure.
But it still hurt to feel you slip
Acknowledging the lasting pain of witnessing the departure.
And no I'm still not over it
Confirming that the healing process is ongoing.
But you were always meant to
Reiterating that the departed was destined to move on.
Move on, on
Affirming the final departure of the significant other.
So you're gone, gone
Repeating the acknowledgment of the departure.
Gone
Emphasizing the state of being gone.
Gone
Repeating the emphasis on the departed state.
Gone
Further emphasizing the departure.
Gone
Continuing to highlight the absence of the departed.
And though my heart is breaking
Acknowledging the heartbreak caused by the departure.
Just know I'd never change it
Expressing gratitude for the experience, despite the pain.
I'm thanking God for showing
Being thankful for the revelation of the beauty in a fleeting moment.
The beauty of a moment
Acknowledging the transient nature of all things.
No nothing lasts forever
Reflecting on the inevitability of change and impermanence.
But I'll always remember
Committing to always remembering the significant moment.
That Arizona sky
