Three Steps
Navigating Love's Crossroads: Melen Kälē's Journey
Lyrics
Where do we go when we can't go no further?
Reflecting on a point of no progress or options.
Where do we turn when the road splits in two?
Contemplating choices when faced with a diverging path.
What do you do when you're promised forever,
Questioning how to cope when promised eternal commitment.
and then she gave that to somebody new?
Expressing betrayal when a commitment is given to someone else.
You really got me good this time
Feeling deeply affected or hurt in the current situation.
I'm done for good this time
Deciding to end a situation definitively.
Can't let it happen again
Resolving not to let the same situation happen again.
I knocked on wood this time
Expressing a hopeful gesture, possibly superstition.
Said you gon' stay away for good I think you should this time
Encouraging someone to stay away for their own good.
Yeah we may have split but you still live inside my head rent free
Acknowledging a lingering emotional connection despite a split.
Thank god I decided not to bend that knee
Grateful for not committing to a serious relationship.
No matter how many steps we took forward
Highlighting setbacks despite efforts to move forward.
We always went back three
Emphasizing recurring setbacks and difficulties.
Well I wear my heart on my sleeve and my poker face is see-through
Being emotionally transparent, struggling to hide true feelings.
I'm convinced that true love is too good to be true
Doubting the existence of genuine love.
A broken heart's easy to hide till it bleeds through
Noticing the challenge of concealing emotional pain.
But when have you ever been there when I need you
Expressing a history of absence in times of need.
Where do we go when we can't go no further
Repeating the theme of being stuck with limited options.
Where do we turn when the road splits in two
Reiterating the dilemma of facing a split in the journey.
What do you do when you're promised forever
Revisiting the emotional challenge of broken promises.
And then she gave that to somebody new
Expressing the pain of someone else receiving promised commitment.
Where do we go when we can't go no further
Reflecting on a point of no progress or options (repeated).
Where do we turn when the road splits in two
Contemplating choices when faced with a diverging path (repeated).
What do you do when you're promised forever
Questioning how to cope when promised eternal commitment (repeated).
And then she gave that to somebody new
Expressing betrayal when a commitment is given to someone else (repeated).
