Sometime Love
Yearning Shadows: Robben Ford's Sometime Love Saga
Lyrics
When you fall for a love that you'll never possess
Being in love with someone you can never have leads to unhappiness.
It only bring unhappiness
This situation brings only sorrow and dissatisfaction.
How can it ever be right
Questioning the morality or correctness of the situation when feeling lonely.
When you're finding yourself alone at night?
Feeling alone during nighttime despite the emotions involved in the unattainable love.
I am waiting
Expressing a state of anticipation.
I'm just a sometime love
Identifying oneself as a love interest that is only occasionally acknowledged or reciprocated.
I am waiting, yeah
Continuing to wait patiently despite the circumstances.
I'm just a sometime love
Reiterating the status of being an intermittent or irregular love interest.
Says that other man doesn't mean a thing
Dismissing the significance of another man in the person's life.
She's under the weight of a diamond ring
Emphasizing the weight or importance of a commitment represented by a diamond ring.
How she longs to be free
Expressing a desire for freedom from the current situation.
We'll be together, just wait and see
Believing in the possibility of being together in the future despite obstacles.
I am waiting
Repeating the state of waiting.
I'm just a sometime love
Reiterating being a love interest with inconsistent attention or commitment.
Yes, I am waiting, waiting
Continuing to wait with a sense of anticipation.
I'm just a sometime love
Stressing the intermittent nature of the love involved.
Long my days and dark my nights
Describing long and difficult periods marked by sadness.
Tick tock of the clock with the lights up bright
Highlighting the passing of time with a sense of brightness but also a reminder of its continuous movement.
Shades of the blues to come
Anticipating future sadness or difficult emotions.
You givin' your love, she's gettin' it on the run
You're giving your love, but the recipient isn’t fully embracing it; they're evasive or avoiding commitment.
I am waiting
Repetition of waiting.
I'm just a sometime love
Restating the intermittent nature of the depicted love.
Yes, I am waiting, waiting
Continuing to wait with an ongoing sense of anticipation.
I'm just a sometime love
Reiterating the sporadic or inconsistent nature of the love involved.
Oh, I am waiting, yeah
Reaffirming the state of waiting.
I'm just a sometime love
Emphasizing being an occasional or sporadic love interest.
Yes, I am waiting, waiting
Continuing to wait with a persistent sense of anticipation.
I'm just a sometime love
Reiterating the intermittent nature of the depicted love.
