Just Before The Morning
Dawn of Regret: Love's Retreat in the Night
Lyrics
You were mine
You were once in a romantic relationship with me.
Your surrender was a perfect rhyme
Your willingness to commit was harmonious and perfect.
And in the night I whispered you were mine
During the night, I affirmed our connection by telling you that you belonged to me.
And I sang you a lullaby
I expressed my love through a lullaby, a soothing and gentle song.
Now my head swims with
My mind is now filled with
Every careless word you said
Recollections of every thoughtless remark you made.
In between the rhythm of your breath
Amid the cadence of your breathing, these memories linger.
My heart bled so tell me when did love
My heart suffered, so tell me when did our love experience pain.
Turn into anther soil dug
When did love transform into a buried, neglected ground?
How did we forget to open up
How did we overlook the need to be open and vulnerable?
Where did we mess this up
Where did we make the mistake that led to this?
And why did I leave
Why did I depart
Just before the morning, oh oh
Right before the break of dawn, symbolizing a missed opportunity or realization.
Just before the morning, oh oh
Repetition for emphasis on the timing of departure.
Just before the morning, oh oh
Just before the morning, oh oh
-And this can't be real
This current situation seems unreal.
This is something you pretend to feel
It feels like you are pretending to experience emotions.
When a broken heart is cold as steel
When a heart is broken and emotionless, how can it ever recover?
How can it ever heal give me pain
Request for pain, a genuine experience to reconnect with feelings.
Give me something I can feel again
Yearning for something tangible to revive emotions.
Lead me to surrender, I'll give in
Guide me to surrender, and I will give in to the emotions.
And I'll let you win
I will let you win in this emotional connection.
Why did I leave
Reiteration of the question about the departure.
Just before the morning, oh oh
Repetition for emphasis on the timing of departure.
Just before the morning, oh oh
Just before the morning, oh oh
-Just before the morning, oh oh
-Why did I leave oh, why did I leave
Reiteration of the question about the departure.
Just before the morning
Emphasizing the specific moment of departure before the morning.
Just before the morning
Repetition for emphasis on the timing of departure.
Just before the morning
