When This Night Is Over
Rediscovering Love Amidst Christmas Reminiscence
Lyrics
Weather forecast says there’s only rain in sight
Anticipation of continuous rain based on weather forecast
Would it matter if the holiday was white
Questioning the significance of a white holiday (snow-covered)
Would the dirt and things unsaid be covered in the snow
Speculation on whether snow can conceal unresolved issues and unspoken words
Would it matter if we didn’t know
Contemplating the impact of ignorance or lack of awareness
Who we were and how we wanted it to be
Reflection on identity and desired life path
Now it seems life itself got in between
Acknowledging life's interference in personal aspirations
Look at us, two strangers feeling lonely side by side
Two individuals, once close, now feeling estranged and alone together
We let it slip away no reason why
Regret over letting something valuable slip away without a clear reason
But when this night is over
Expressing hope for clarity after a challenging night
Can we see things clear
Questioning the possibility of gaining insight after the night passes
And wish for all we once were
Desiring a return to the past and all its positive aspects
Now that christmas time is near
Linking these sentiments to the approaching Christmas time
See the kids you know they’re growing up so fast
Observation of the rapid growth of children
A still reminder of how many years that passed
Children serving as a reminder of the years that have passed
All the joy and expectations glowing in their eyes
Noting the joy and expectations reflected in children's eyes
There’s no time for empty words or lies
Emphasizing the importance of sincerity and truth, no time for empty words or lies
So when this night is over
Reiteration of the hope for clarity after the night
Can we see things clear
Questioning the potential for clear vision post-night
And wish for all we once were
Desiring a return to past positive qualities as Christmas approaches
When christmas time is near
Linking these sentiments to the approaching Christmas time
Where did we go wrong we used to have it all, wouldn’t fall
Reflecting on a lost past and the questioning of where things went wrong
Somehow we got lost along the way
Acknowledging getting lost along life's journey
So give us every holy star and christmas bliss, all there is
Seeking solace and completeness through Christmas symbols (holy star, bliss, wise men, Santa)
Wise men and Santa with his sleigh
Specifically mentioning wise men and Santa with his sleigh
So when this night is over
Repetition of the hope for clarity after the night
Can we see things clear
Raising the question again about the possibility of clear vision post-night
And wish for all we once were
Reiterating the desire to return to positive aspects of the past as Christmas approaches
When christmas time is near
Linking these sentiments to the approaching Christmas time
And wish for all we once were
Final repetition of the desire to return to past positive qualities as Christmas approaches
When christmas time is near
Final connection of these sentiments to the approaching Christmas time
