Fadeaway
Ephemeral Love: Embracing the Beauty in Fading Moments
Lyrics
Why does it have to be tomorrow?
Expressing a sense of impatience or urgency, questioning the need for waiting until tomorrow.
I'd like to stay here just one more day
Desire to prolong the current moment, reluctant to leave.
I haven't got the time you need to borrow
Unable to spare the time requested for borrowing.
So I'll give you all I've got
Offering what little is available, emphasizing the limited resources.
Though I haven't got a lot
-And you know the things you love most fade away
Reflection on the transient nature of cherished things, implying a potential loss.
Sometimes the things that you love most fade away
Reiteration of the idea that beloved things can fade away over time.
Like a shadow disappearing in the night
Using a metaphor, likening the disappearance of something cherished to a shadow vanishing in the night.
Sometimes the things that you love most fade away
Repeating the theme of the ephemeral nature of beloved things.
But now is not the right time
Suggesting that the present moment is not suitable for certain actions, possibly related to love.
'Cause loving you would only bring us both a lot of pain
Highlighting the potential pain associated with expressing love at the current time.
Don't let the morning come between us
Advising against letting morning, or a new day, create distance or issues in the relationship.
Always be together anyway
Commitment to staying together despite potential challenges.
Memories can never really leave us
Emphasizing the lasting impact of memories.
So I'll give you all I've got
Repeating the willingness to give what is available, despite limited resources.
Though I haven't got a lot
-And you know the things you love most fade away
Reiterating the theme of the transient nature of cherished things.
So until I have to go
Anticipating a future departure or separation.
Let's pretend that we don't know
Suggesting a desire to ignore or deny the impending separation.
That sometimes the things you love most fade away
Repeating the idea that beloved things can fade away over time.
Sometimes the things that you love most fade away
Reiteration of the transient nature of cherished things, using a shadow metaphor.
Like a shadow disappearing in the night
Continuation of the metaphor, emphasizing the disappearance of cherished things like a shadow in the night.
Sometimes the things that you love most fade away
Repeating the theme of the ephemeral nature of beloved things.
But now is not the right time
Reiterating that the present time is not suitable for expressing love.
'Cause loving you would only bring us both a lot of pain
Highlighting the potential pain associated with expressing love at the current time.
Sometimes the things that you love most fade away
Reiterating the theme of the transient nature of cherished things.
Like a shadow disappearing in the night
Closing the song with a repetition of the shadow metaphor, emphasizing the disappearance of cherished things in the night.
