Getting Started
Longing for Unfinished Chapters
Lyrics
Those dreams came true
Expressing that previously envisioned dreams have become a reality.
The ones we talked about
Referring to shared aspirations discussed earlier.
When we would laugh
Recalling moments of laughter and daydreaming together.
And daydream on your couch
Reflecting on shared moments of imagination on a couch.
Nobody told me there'd be this much pain
Expressing surprise at the unexpected pain experienced.
From knowing I won't feel your touch again
Acknowledging the sorrow of knowing the absence of physical contact.
Why couldn't you stay a little longer
Expressing a desire for a longer presence from the departed person.
We were just getting started now
Stating that the journey was just beginning when the departure occurred.
I wish you would've stayed a little longer
Expressing a wish for a longer stay from the departed person.
We were just getting started
Emphasizing that they were only starting to explore their journey together.
Getting started now
Reiterating the idea that they were in the initial stages of their journey.
I tried to call
Describing an attempt to communicate.
Cause you believed in me
Highlighting the departed person's belief in the speaker.
But no ring at all
Noticing the absence of a response (ring) as the person is asleep.
Cause you've fallen fast asleep
Describing the person's deep sleep, hindering communication.
I don't understand
Expressing confusion or inability to comprehend the situation.
Nobody told me there'd be this much pain
Reiterating the unexpected pain from the absence of touch.
From knowing I'll never have your touch again
Accepting the reality of never experiencing the person's touch again.
I just want to know
Expressing a desire for understanding and clarity.
Why couldn't you stay a little longer
Repeating the desire for a longer stay from the departed person.
We were just getting started now
Stressing that they were just starting their journey together.
I wish you could've stayed a little longer
Expressing a wish for a prolonged presence from the departed person.
We were just getting started
Reiterating that they were in the initial stages of their journey.
Getting started now
Emphasizing the beginning of their journey.
But I'll never have your touch again
Affirming the irreversible loss of the person's touch.
Why couldn't you stay a little longer
Repeating the wish for a more extended stay from the departed person.
Why couldn't you stay a little longer
Continuation of the desire for a prolonged presence and lamenting the departure.
Why couldn't you stay a little longer
-I wish you would've stayed longer
-Why couldn't you stay a little longer
-I wish you would've stayed longer
-Why couldn't you stay a little longer
-I wish you would've stayed longer
-Why couldn't you stay a little longer
-I wish you would've stayed longer
-Why couldn't you stay a little longer
Stressing the early stage of their journey together.
We just getting started now
Reaffirming the statement that they were just starting their journey.
Why couldn't you stay a little longer, yea
Expressing the desire for a longer stay.
We were just getting started now
