One Day Away from You
A Dance of Regret: One Day Adrift from Love
Lyrics
One day away from you, left on my own
Expressing the experience of being separated from someone special for a day and navigating life alone.
I list the changes that
Reflecting on personal transformations or developments during the time apart.
I swear I'm gonna make
Promising to make positive changes but struggling to fulfill those promises upon returning home.
But never do when I get home
Acknowledging a pattern of not following through with intentions.
One day away from you, each unkind word
Expressing the impact of unkind words spoken during the separation, causing internal pain.
I spoke in anger hurts me more than when in
Highlighting the enduring emotional effect of words spoken in anger, even after the initial heated moment.
The moment's heat it first occurred
Emphasizing the lasting hurt caused by spoken words, extending beyond the heat of the moment.
One day away from you, each thoughtless deed
Conveying the repercussions of thoughtless actions during the absence, reopening emotional wounds.
That was my fault opens the wound and rubs
Exploring the self-inflicted pain resulting from personal faults and actions that cause emotional distress.
In salt and stings and makes me bleed
Describing the ongoing pain and bleeding caused by one's own thoughtless deeds.
One day away from you is like a week
Comparing a day without the loved one to an extended period, emphasizing the profound impact of the separation.
A week is like a blue moon month of dreary
Creating a vivid image of time dragging on slowly, akin to a month of dreary Sundays, intensifying the sense of weakness.
Sunday afternoons and leaves me weak
Expressing the emotional toll of the separation and its draining effect on the individual.
One day away from you is all it takes
Stating that even a single day away is enough to feel the impact, underscoring the intensity of the emotional connection.
You'd think by now I'd learned
Reflecting on the failure to learn from past mistakes despite the passage of time.
The lessons of the past
Expressing a recognition of the need to learn from past experiences but admitting a lack of progress in doing so.
But haven't yet from my mistakes
Admitting the persistence of mistakes and the struggle to break free from established patterns.
One day away from you, I do deceive
Admitting to self-deception regarding the ability to cope without the loved one during the separation.
Myself to thinking I could cope without you
Expressing a realization of the self-deception and the difficulty of managing without the presence of the loved one.
Pity on this fool, what webs I weave
Expressing regret for the webs of deception woven and the consequences of fooling oneself.
One day away from you, I do deceive
Reiterating the theme of self-deception and the struggles of coping without the loved one's presence.
Myself to thinking I could cope without you
Reemphasizing the difficulty of managing without the loved one and the consequences of self-deception.
Pity on this fool, what webs I weave
Expressing pity for oneself, acknowledging the self-inflicted challenges and webs of deception.
