Letting Go
Nostalgic Echoes: Letting Go of Youth's Embrace
Lyrics
Far enough away you got me feeling
Expressing a sense of distance that evokes emotions.
Sometimes I just think I must be dreaming
Contemplating the surreal nature of the situation, possibly feeling disbelief or awe.
About the days we were young
Nostalgia for the days of youth.
Just getting pissed and known that our lives had just begun
Reflecting on carefree times of being young and carelessly starting life.
Before the 9th of September we'd already won
Referencing a significant date (9th of September) and the idea of winning before a major event.
Without a care in the world, we'd done
Recalling a time without worries or responsibilities.
The best game that us two could played
Describing a game played together, metaphorical or literal, as part of their shared experience.
That day that we had fallen back
Remembering a moment of falling back, possibly reminiscing about shared challenges.
By letting go to to late!
Reflecting on the consequences of letting go too late, implying missed opportunities.
Letting go, letting go
Repetition of the phrase "Letting go," emphasizing the theme of release or detachment.
Letting go, letting go
-Why's it gotta be us, I want it all back
Expressing a desire to regain something lost, questioning the fairness of the situation.
There's nothing that can be done
Acceptance of a situation with a recognition that nothing can be changed.
Before the night is gone!
Highlighting urgency or finality before the night ends.
Letting go, letting go
Repetition of the theme of letting go and the sense of irreversibility.
Letting go, letting go
-Why's it gotta be us, I want it all back
-There's nothing that can be done
-Before the night is gone!
-Far enough away you got me leading
Feeling compelled or forced to lead a life of pain at a distance.
A life of pain I knew I did not wanna keep
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current painful life.
Livin, Livin the worst time of my life
Acknowledging the difficult period and the impact of being without a significant other.
Without you by side I'm coming up with all these lies
-Tables turned when I looked you in the eye
Describing a turning point when facing the truth.
I lost all faith but I knew I had to try
Experiencing a loss of faith but deciding to persevere.
You came around not long after we split
Recalling the aftermath of a split and expressing satisfaction for not giving in.
I'm glad I never gave in
-You're the diamond in my empty heart
Symbolizing the person as a valuable and positive force in the speaker's life.
Letting go, letting go
Repetition of the theme of letting go, emphasizing the struggle before the night ends.
Letting go, letting go
-Why's it gotta be us, I want it all back
-There's nothing that can be done
-Before the night is gone!
-Letting go, letting go
Continuation of the theme with variations in expression.
Letting go, you already know
-Why's it gotta be us, I want it all back
-There's nothing that can be done
-Before the night is gone!
-Keeping hold, keeping hold
Introducing a new theme of "Keeping hold," implying a desire to retain something valuable.
Keeping hold, keeping hold
-You know it's gotta be us, we got it all back
-There's always something to be done
-Before the night is gone!
-Keeping hold, keeping hold
Continuation of the theme of holding onto something precious and finding peace.
Keeping hold, keeping hold
-I can't believe you light the fire in my heart
-Now were finally a peace I'll say
-Before the night is gone!
