Slow Pace of Time
Love's Melancholy Echo in Slow Pace
Lyrics
I find it hard to just compare to
I find it challenging to make comparisons
The way that you love me, you love me
Describing the profound nature of the love received
That's all that I had ever ask
Expressing a simple desire for love, nothing more
But in time, you realize the violins have stopped playing at the bottle's end
A realization that the romantic or sweet moments have ended
And yet, it lingers on and finds its way through
The feeling persists, making its way through despite challenges
Maybe I won't be, won't be
Considering a potential unfulfilled version of oneself
All that I could've been
Reflecting on missed opportunities or unfulfilled potential
But each time it begins to rhyme
When a situation becomes familiar or predictable, declaring it's over
I pick up my things declaring it's the end
Deciding to end things when a pattern repeats
Here it comes, here it comes don't let it blow you down
A warning to not let a challenging situation affect you
Here it comes, here it comes to overtake you now
An impending challenge that might overwhelm
I find it hard to just confront you
Finding it difficult to directly address or deal with someone
Lately I don't see, I can't see the kindness that you always have
Not perceiving or acknowledging the kindness the person has
It's still mine, but I hope that time
Expressing ownership of the current state but hoping for healing
Will heal the wounds of the past
Anticipating that time will mend past emotional wounds
Here it comes, here it comes to blow you down
A repetition of the warning about an approaching challenge
Here it comes, here it comes don't you hear it sound
A repetition of the warning, emphasizing the sound of the challenge
Here it comes, here it comes and you just stand around
Reiterating the impending challenge and observing passivity
