Lyrics

I heard somebody playin a tune

I heard someone playing a musical composition.

And it flowed throughout the room

The music spread throughout the entire room.

From their lungs, a breath, a river of gold

From their breath emerged a beautiful and valuable stream (metaphor for music).

And it was warm, but it made me feel cold

The music was warm, but it evoked a cold feeling in me.

It reminded me of the days when you'd play for me

This music brought back memories of the times when you used to play music for me.

When we'd be laughing together and talking about harmony

We used to share laughter and discuss harmony during those moments.


Weird to think one day you'll be an old memory

It's strange to consider that one day you will become a distant memory.

And I think that day is today

And it seems that day has arrived today.

Strange to know our time was so temporary

It's peculiar to realize that our time together was brief.

Cause I never wished it away

I never wished for our time together to end.

And I'm reminded no one can stay

I'm reminded that nobody can stay forever.

Not for comfort, not for pleasure, or praise

Not for comfort, pleasure, or praise.

And so, if nothings forever

So, if nothing lasts forever,

I'll let the changes begin

I will embrace the changes that come.

Even good things always end

Even good things inevitably come to an end.


Good things, all good things

All good things eventually conclude.

They all come to an end

This repetition emphasizes the idea that everything has an end.

(Good things always end)

(Reiteration of the concept that good things always come to an end.)

Good things, all good things

Once again highlighting the inevitability of good things ending.

Good things always end

Reiterating the theme that good things always come to an end.

(Good things always end)

(Repetition emphasizing the certainty that good things always end.)
