Lyrics
Don't look so sad
Encouraging the listener not to appear so sorrowful.
I know it's over
Acknowledging the end of a relationship.
But life goes on
Expressing that life continues despite the breakup.
And this old world will keep on turning
Reflecting on the ongoing nature of the world.
Let's just be glad
Suggesting gratitude for the shared moments.
We had some time to spend together
Reminiscing about the time spent together.
There's no need to watch the bridges
Advising against dwelling on past conflicts.
That were burning
Referencing bridges that have been irreversibly damaged.
Lay your head upon my pillow
Inviting the listener to find solace by resting on the speaker's pillow.
Hold your warm and tender body
Encouraging physical closeness.
Close to mine
Emphasizing intimacy by keeping bodies close.
Hear the whisper of the rain drops
Noticing the sound of raindrops, possibly as a metaphor for sadness.
Blowing soft across the window
Describing raindrops softly touching the window.
And make believe you love me
Suggesting a desire for the listener to pretend to love the speaker again.
One more time
Repeating the plea for one more instance of shared affection.
For the good times
Reiterating the desire for good times and positive memories.
I'll get along
Expressing the speaker's ability to cope and move forward.
You'll find another
Anticipating the listener's ability to find a new relationship.
And I'll be here
Committing to being there if the listener ever needs support.
If you should find you ever need me
Offering ongoing assistance without expecting reciprocation.
Don't say a word about tomorrow
Discouraging discussions about the future or permanence.
Or forever
Acknowledging the potential for separation.
There'll be time enough for sadness
Emphasizing the importance of dealing with sadness when it arises.
When you leave me
Recognizing the inevitability of parting.
Lay your head upon my pillow
Repeating the invitation to find comfort on the speaker's pillow.
Hold your warm and tender body
Reiterating the importance of physical closeness.
Close to mine
Reaffirming the intimacy of bodies being close.
Hear the whisper of the rain drops
Recalling the sound of raindrops as a backdrop to emotions.
Blowing soft across the window
Describing the soft touch of raindrops on the windowpane.
And make believe you love me
Repeating the plea for the listener to pretend to love the speaker.
One more time
Emphasizing the desire for one more instance of shared affection.
For the good times
Concluding with the wish for more positive and cherished moments.
For the good times
Reiterating the desire for good times and positive memories.
