A Few More Years
Reflections on Lost Time: Mighty Big Rig's 'A Few More Years'
Lyrics
When you think you want it
Expressing desire or inclination towards something
When you've earned it all
After achieving or gaining everything
When you think you've got it
Believing to possess what is desired
You'll deserve to fall
Implying that a fall or failure is deserved at that point
We're still here
Emphasizing the present moment of existence
A few more years
Acknowledging the continuation of existence for a limited period
When you know you've lost it
Acknowledging the realization of losing something
With no one standing round
Being alone in a moment of loss
When you feel forgotten
Experiencing the sensation of being forgotten or overlooked
When you're falling down
Describing a state of decline or failure
We're still here
Reiterating the ongoing nature of existence
A few more years
Stating the continuation of existence for a limited time
I know I've been here
Acknowledging a prolonged presence in a certain situation
Far too long
Admitting to an extended duration in a particular state
It's time I move on
Expressing the need for a change or departure
Cause you've been gone
Referring to someone's absence as a reason for change
I know I've been here
Recognizing an extended stay in a certain circumstance
Far too long
Acknowledging a prolonged duration in a specific condition
It's time I move on
Expressing the necessity of moving on
Cause you've been gone
Attributing the need to move on to the absence of someone
