Closer But Far
Yearning for Unattainable Love: Nowhere Boys' Melodic Reflection
Lyrics
The way you smile,
The subject admires the person's smile.
For the way you shine on me,
The person's radiance has a positive impact on the subject.
I stole a song for you,
The subject has created or chosen a song for the person.
And changed to something new.
The song has been transformed into something new, possibly reflecting a change or evolution.
I'll be your valentine,
The subject expresses a willingness to be the person's valentine, specifically on a day in Christmas time.
For a day in Christmas time.
The subject acknowledges being defeated or overwhelmed.
But I'm beaten to the ground,
The hands of others have caused the subject to be brought down.
By the hands that hold you down.
Despite challenges, the subject will attempt to move forward.
And I will try, to walk on by,
The subject is still aspiring to achieve a dream, despite difficulties.
but now still I'm dreaming to become,
The subject acknowledges a desire to become someone different.
Someone I'll never be.
Reference to an unattainable identity, expressing a sense of longing.
If you close your eyes,
If the person closes their eyes, the subject promises to bring joy and vibrancy to their life.
I will bring colors to your skies,
A commitment to add colors to the person's world through positive actions.
There won't be wrong or right,
A recognition that there is no clear right or wrong in the situation.
But they faded in the darkest night.
In challenging times, the positive aspects may fade away.
If you want me to, I will be that somebody too,
Subject is willing to be there for the person, but acknowledges a distance.
Closer but far from you.
Expressing a desire to be closer but acknowledges a distance from the person.
And I will try, to say goodbye,
A commitment to attempt to say goodbye despite difficulties.
but now still I'm dying to become,
The subject still yearns to become someone different.
Someone I'll never be.
Reiteration of the desire to become someone else, despite challenges.
If you close your eyes,
If the person closes their eyes, the subject promises to bring positivity.
I will bring colors to your skies,
A commitment to add colors to the person's life, with an acknowledgment of uncertainties.
There won't be wrong or right,
The absence of clear right or wrong is emphasized, fading in difficult times.
But they faded in your diamond eyes.
In the person's eyes, positive aspects may fade away.
If you want me to, I will be that somebody too,
Subject offers to be there for the person, acknowledging a distance.
Closer but far from you.
Reiteration of a desire to be closer but acknowledging a distance from the person.
