Just A Friend For The Night
Nocturnal Echoes: Embracing Shadows of Lost Love
Lyrics
When I close my eyes
Reflecting on memories or experiences with closed eyes.
I can still recall at night
Recalling events from the past, possibly emotional in nature.
I just close my eyes and turn –
Seeking solace by closing eyes and turning away from reality.
Turning out the light
Symbolic act of ending or distancing from something (turning out the light).
Darkness brings you back in sight
Darkness metaphorically brings back the person or memories.
Why did you have to go?
Expressing the pain of separation and questioning the departure.
Woke memories of the night
Memories of the night with the departed person resurface.
Sure I feed a dream that won't come true
Fantasizing about an unfulfilled dream related to the departed.
Things all lovers do can make me
Alluding to shared experiences of lovers that evoke emotions.
Just a friend for the night
Accepting the role of being just a friend for the night, not a lover.
Till darkness turns into light
Hoping for a transition from darkness (pain) to light (happiness).
How can I hide my tears when I cry?
Questioning how to conceal emotional pain and tears.
When I close my eyes
Repeating the act of closing eyes, suggesting a recurring emotional process.
I hear you voice call my name
Hearing the departed person's voice in the mind.
I just close my eyes and try –
Attempting to recreate the auditory experience by closing eyes.
Try to hear again
Struggling to hear the voice again, emphasizing the emotional challenge.
Deep inside words remain
Deep emotions persist despite efforts to move on.
Now when you are gone
Acknowledging the absence of the person and the impact on life.
Three words have left my life
Three significant words are no longer part of the speaker's life.
I only use ‘em when I write a song
Using those words only in the creative expression of songwriting.
Words all lovers use can make me
Words associated with love contribute to the feeling of being just a friend temporarily.
Just a friend for the night
Acceptance of being a friend for the night amid emotional turmoil.
Till darkness turns into night
Anticipating a transformation from darkness to a better state.
How can I hide my tears when I cry.
Reiterating the challenge of hiding tears and emotional distress.
