Some Good Things Never Last
Eternal Echoes: Embracing Love's Transience
Lyrics
It's three in the morning
Addressing the specific time, emphasizing a sense of longing.
You're nowhere in sight
Not finding the person being sought or expected.
And all that I wanted was
Desire for companionship or closeness.
To be with you tonight
Expressing the primary wish to be together on this night.
I've watched love get closer
Observing the ebb and flow of love, nearing and receding.
And then fade away
Experiencing the disappointment as love fades away.
I've seen you believe in me
Acknowledging belief and faith in the relationship.
I've seen you try to stay
Witnessing efforts to maintain the connection.
But what good is holdin' on
Questioning the value of holding on when thoughts lean towards letting go.
When you know that all you
Highlighting the internal struggle of conflicting emotions.
Can think about is letting go
Considering the inevitability of releasing someone from a relationship.
They say if you love someone
Quoting a common saying about love, suggesting freedom for the loved one.
Then set them free
Explaining the condition that if they return, it was meant to be.
If they come back again
Emphasizing the potential for reconnection and destiny.
Then in the end it was meant to be
Reflecting on the ultimate outcome of love.
I thought we were lovers
Expressing initial beliefs about the nature of the relationship.
I thought we were friends
Perceiving the impact of reality on idealized notions of love and friendship.
I guess when reality steps in
Realizing that dreams and illusions dissolve in the face of reality.
The dreaming ends
Highlighting the contrast between expectation and reality.
We live for the future
Emphasizing a focus on the future despite present challenges.
We learn from the past
Embracing the lessons learned from past experiences.
No matter how hard we try
Conveying the difficulty in preserving certain positive aspects.
Some good things never last
Stating a realization that some good things are transient.
And all you can think about is letting go
Reiterating the theme of contemplating letting go.
Be true to yourself my love
Encouraging authenticity and self-loyalty in love.
That's all I ever wanted you to be
Expressing a simple desire for the loved one to be true to themselves.
Just don't forget to smile
Suggesting that maintaining a positive memory is important.
When you think of me
Encouraging a positive emotional response when thinking about the speaker.
I reached for the stars
Reaching for ambitious goals or aspirations.
I have got them in sight
Confirming the proximity of achieving personal goals.
There's someone who really needs me
Recognizing the existence of someone who relies on the speaker.
Out there in the night
Highlighting the presence of support or love from another person.
We live for the future
Reiterating a focus on the future and drawing lessons from the past.
We will learn from the past
Emphasizing the importance of learning from previous experiences.
No matter how hard we try
Stating the difficulty in preserving certain positive elements despite effort.
Some good things never last
Repeating the acknowledgment that some good things are fleeting.
Why can't they last?
Pondering the ephemeral nature of positive aspects and expressing a wish for prolonged existence.
