Lyrics
Don't look so sad, I know it's over
Encouraging the listener not to appear so unhappy as the relationship is ending.
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning
Life continues despite the breakup, and the world keeps moving forward.
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together
Reflecting on the joy of having shared time together and finding contentment in that.
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning
Suggesting there's no benefit in dwelling on the damage caused by the relationship ending.
So lay your head upon my pillow
Inviting the listener to find comfort by resting their head on the singer's pillow.
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Describing the intimacy of holding each other closely.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowin' soft against the window
Noticing the soothing sound of raindrops against the window, creating a tranquil atmosphere.
And make believe you love me one more time for the good times
Asking the listener to pretend to love the singer one more time for the sake of the pleasant memories.
I'll get along, you'll find another
Assuring that both will move on, suggesting the listener will find someone else.
And I'll be here if you should find you ever need me
Offering support if the listener ever needs the singer in the future.
Don't say a word about tomorrow or forever
Advising against discussing what might happen in the future, focusing on the present.
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me
Emphasizing that there will be time later for sadness once the separation is definite.
So lay your head upon my pillow
Reiterating the offer of comfort and solace by laying one's head on the singer's pillow.
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Reaffirming the closeness and warmth of physical contact.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowin' soft against the window
Reveling in the serene ambiance created by raindrops against the window.
And make believe you love me one more time for the good times
Requesting the listener to pretend to love again for the sake of cherishing past happy moments.
For the good times, for the good times
Expressing a longing for reliving the good times experienced together in the past.
