Embracing Farewells: Navigating Regret and Resilience
Lyrics
So this is how
Expressing surprise or realization about the current situation.
We say goodbye
Acknowledging the farewell moment.
I didn’t see this coming
Indicating unexpectedness or lack of anticipation.
I did not think I’d cry
Unexpectedly feeling emotional and shedding tears.
I hope that you find
Wishing the person well in their quest or journey.
What it is you’re looking for
Hoping the person discovers what they are seeking.
I fare thee well, my darling
Bidding farewell with a sense of sincerity and warmth.
But I’ll let you close the door
Allowing the person to leave and accepting the closure.
It’s times like these
Reflecting on a specific period, possibly a challenging one.
That I have no regrets
Expressing contentment with past decisions or actions.
I sit here in the mirror
Contemplating one's own reflection for insight or understanding.
Searching for a clue
Expressing relief or positivity about the person going home.
I’m glad you’re going home, dear
Acknowledging the need for departure or parting.
I should be leaving too
Recognizing the necessity to leave as well.
My heart says this ain’t over
Emotionally feeling that the connection is not entirely over.
But my mind knows I’m a fool
Rationally understanding that holding on may be unwise.
Because I have seen you grow away
Reflecting on the distance or change observed in the person.
There’s nothing left to do
Accepting the inevitability and realizing there's no further action.
It’s times like these
Reiterating the satisfaction and lack of remorse in certain moments.
That I have no regrets
Affirming contentment and peace with the past.
