if only
Longing for Another Time
Lyrics
We don't go back that very far
We don't have a long history together
But when I think of you I feel like
Thinking of you takes me on a journey
I'm on a long ride
Feeling like I'm on a prolonged adventure
My hand out of the Porsche
My hand is reaching out of a Porsche (symbolic of luxury or desire)
And my hand makes it's way to you
Trying to connect with you
No matter where I look I can't find you
Struggling to locate you
I could really do with just a night with you
Desiring a night with you
If only I could've seen you in another time
Expressing regret for not meeting you in a different time
If only you were never so damn far from mine
Wishing you were not so far away
If only you were never so damn hard to find
Expressing difficulty in finding you
If only I could've seen you in another time
Reiterating the desire to meet in a different time
I need six beers
Expressing the need for alcohol
Maybe seven more
Emphasizing the desire for more drinks
And I don't even drink the things
Not a regular drinker, but compelled to for emotional reasons
'Cause if I don't I'll fall down the rabbit hole
Fearing getting lost in emotional turmoil without drinking
Trying to find a way out
Struggling to find a way out of emotional difficulties
Trying to find a way out
Repeating the difficulty of finding a way out
No matter where I look I can't find you
Continued struggle to locate you emotionally
I could really do with just a night with you
Reiterating the desire for a night with you
No matter where I look I can't find you
Continued difficulty in finding you emotionally
I could really do with just a night with you
Expressing the ongoing longing for a night with you
If only I could've seen you in another time
Regret for not meeting in a different time
If only you were never so damn far from mine
Expressing the distance between
If only you were never so damn hard to find
Highlighting the challenge of finding you
If only I could've seen you in another time
Reiterating the wish to meet in a different time
I cannot find you
Struggling to find you
I cannot find you
Continued difficulty in finding you emotionally
If only I could've seen you in another time
Repeating the regret for not meeting in a different time
(Seen you in another time)
Reiteration of the desire to meet in another time
If only you were never so damn far from mine
Emphasizing the distance between
(So damn far from mine)
Reiterating the challenge of finding you
If only you were never so damn hard to find
Continued difficulty due to your elusive nature
(Too hard to find)
Highlighting the challenge of finding you
If only I could've seen you in another time
Repeating the wish to meet in a different time
Seen you in another time
Reiteration of the desire to meet in another time
