Toxic Lover
Lost Love Across the Sea: A Tale of Heartbreak by Parov Stelar
Lyrics
Seems like the other day (ahh)
Reflecting on a recent past event.
My baby went away
Expressing the departure of the speaker's romantic partner.
He went away 'cross the sea (why?)
Indicating that the partner went overseas.
Oh no, oh no no, oh no no, oh no no
Repeating the emotional reaction to the partner's departure.
Oh no no, oh no no, oh no no, oh no no
-Oh no no, oh no no, oh no no, oh no no
-Seems like the other day (ahh)
Reiteration of the recent departure of the partner.
My baby went away
Reaffirming the partner's departure.
He went away 'cross the sea (why?)
Reiterating the partner's overseas journey and questioning why.
It's been two years or so
Stating the duration since the speaker last saw the partner.
Since I saw my baby go
Reflecting on the time elapsed since the partner's departure.
And then this letter came for me (why?)
Mentioning the receipt of a letter, indicating communication from the partner.
Oh no, oh no
Expressing distress or surprise.
It said that we were through
Referring to the content of the letter, declaring the end of the relationship.
He found somebody new (who?)
Revealing that the partner has found someone else.
Let me think, let me think, what can I do?
Contemplating the situation and considering possible actions.
Seems like the other day (ahh)
Recalling the recent departure of the partner.
My baby went away
Reiterating the partner's overseas journey.
He went away 'cross the sea (why?)
Restating the time since the partner left.
It's been two years or so
Reflecting on the time elapsed since the partner's departure.
Since I saw my baby go
Expressing the receipt of another letter from the partner.
And then this letter came for me (why?)
Questioning the reasons behind the partner's communication.
(Oh no no, oh no no, oh no no, oh no no)
Repeating emotional responses or reactions.
(Oh no no, oh no)
-Seems like the other day (ahh)
Reiteration of the partner's recent departure.
My baby went away
Reaffirming the partner's overseas journey.
He went away 'cross the sea (why?)
Reiterating the time since the partner left.
It's been two years or so
Reflecting on the time elapsed since the partner's departure.
Since I saw my baby go
Repeating the receipt of a letter from the partner.
And then this letter came for me (why?)
Questioning the reasons behind the partner's communication.
Oh no
Reiterating a distressed or surprised emotional state.
