Lyrics
Before you left to go away
Expressing a moment before a departure.
I wrote down what i couldn't say
Unable to articulate feelings verbally, resorting to writing.
I bet you read it on the road
Anticipating the recipient reading the written message during the journey.
With foggy lights and fingers cold
Imagery of a journey with challenging weather conditions.
Now you drove so far but now you know
Acknowledging the distance covered and the difficulty of letting go.
How rough it is to let me go
Highlighting the emotional challenge of separation.
And let me recommend that you think twice
Suggesting reconsideration before making a decision.
And i always give the best advice
Asserting a reputation for giving sound advice.
Now come on back to where you know i'll be
Inviting the person to return to a familiar place.
Lets' go sit under the apple tree
Suggesting a peaceful and nostalgic setting under an apple tree.
You can floor that thing, let the engine roar
Encouraging a fast return with enthusiasm.
The wheels they'll spin, the rain it pours
Depicting a dynamic scene with spinning wheels and pouring rain.
There's regret that you feel
Acknowledging feelings of regret.
About the choice you've made
Describing the emotional weight of a made decision.
You'll just have to deal
Encouraging dealing with the consequences.
Before it goes away
Emphasizing the temporary nature of the emotional state.
You ask me how i feel
Responding to a query about emotions.
And here's what i'll say
Expressing a positive and resilient attitude.
I'm doing fine, just fine
Reiterating a state of well-being.
I'm doing fine
Emphasizing the stability of emotional state despite circumstances.
