Three Lonely Days
Longing for Tomorrow: Three Days of Hope and Promise
Lyrics
I knew it wouldn't last
I anticipated that the relationship wouldn't endure
But three lonely days have passed
Three days of loneliness have transpired
Another week or two and I
If given more time, things might have improved
Might have been fine
Now facing a challenging situation
Now there's an awful lot to think about
There's a lot on my mind
And it's so hard to sit and wait it out
Waiting is difficult with so much to ponder
It's been three lonely days
It's been three days of loneliness
And three nights but it's okay
Despite the nights, I'm coping
I'm pretty sure that I
I believe I can figure things out
Can sort out everything
Confident about resolving issues
And I don't know if it'll be the same
Uncertain if things will return to normal
But I promise I'll be back again
Promising a return in the future
One day next summer, I'll be back for you
Assurance of reuniting next summer
And all those days will be gone
All the current difficulties will pass
One day next summer, I'll be back for you
Reiteration of the promise to return next summer
(Woah oh oh)
(Vocalization indicating emotion or emphasis)
Hold on to everything everything turns gray
Hold on to everything, as everything turns gray
Hold tight, and still it slips away
Despite efforts, things still slip away
Watch days pass by so quickly
Observing the swift passage of time
Like so many dreams so little time together
Little time together, like fleeting dreams
And I'd hate to have to say I barely knew you
Expressing reluctance to barely know someone
One day next summer, I'll be back for you
Reiteration of the promise to return next summer
And all those days will be gone
Emphasizing that the current difficult days will pass
One day next summer, I'll be back for you
Reassurance of returning next summer
(Woah oh oh)
(Vocalization indicating emotion or emphasis)
And all those days will be gone
Confirmation that the challenging days will eventually be gone
