Much Too Soon
Learned Lessons: Much Too Soon's Heartfelt Reflections
Lyrics
She was there just sitting at the table
Describes a woman sitting at a table.
Thinking now that things won't be the same
Reflects on the realization that things have changed.
And wouldn't you like to go with me?
Asks if the listener would like to accompany the speaker.
And she answered, "No" to me
She declines, answering "No" to the speaker.
But I guess I learned my lesson much too soon
Expresses the speaker learning a lesson too soon from the experience.
I never thought she'd leave me here forever
Speaker never expected her to leave permanently.
But who knows just what the future brings
Reflects uncertainty about the future.
And wouldn't you like to go with me?
Asks again if the listener would like to go together.
And she answered, "No" to me
She again declines, saying "No" to the speaker.
But I guess I learned my lesson much too soon
Reiterates the realization of learning a lesson prematurely.
Take away this never ending sorrow
Expresses a desire to end persistent sorrow.
Take this lonely feeling from my soul
Wants to alleviate the lonely feeling from the soul.
If only I knew what things bring tomorrow
Expresses a wish to know what the future holds.
She'd be sitting here beside me
If aware, she would be sitting beside the speaker.
And my heart would dimly go
Implies a sense of loss and longing in the speaker's heart.
"Da-da-da-da-da-uh"
Non-verbal expression, possibly conveying emotion.
I hope to make a change now for the better
Hopes for positive change, avoiding being controlled by fate.
Never letting fate control my soul
Expresses determination not to let fate dictate the speaker's life.
And I'm hoping that my prayers will see
Hopes that prayers will bring her back to the speaker.
The day that she'll come back to me
Anticipates the day when she might return.
But I guess I learned my lesson much too soon
Repeats the realization of learning a lesson prematurely.
Yes, I guess I learned my lesson much too soon
Reiterates the speaker's acknowledgment of learning a lesson too soon.
