Brown Eyes
Unraveling Love: Brown Eyes Speak of Heartbreak
Lyrics
Oh your big brown eyes used to make me feel so safe
Expressing a sense of security and comfort from the past associated with the person's big brown eyes.
As you held me tight I thought I’d found my place
Feeling a strong connection and a sense of belonging while being embraced, believing it to be a significant place.
April fools I thought you were the one
Reflecting on a moment of realization that the person may not be as ideal as initially thought.
All the should have and the could have and the would have
Acknowledging missed opportunities and regrets in the relationship.
Oh leave it in the past now
Encouraging to leave the past behind and not dwell on the things that cannot be changed.
I know that I can’t change our path
Accepting the inability to alter the course of the relationship.
Though I wish I’d have another chance
Expressing a desire for a second chance to make things right and restore understanding.
To make it all alright and make you see the light again
Yearning to rectify the situation and bring clarity to the other person.
But in the end there’s nothing I can do
Realizing the limitations and powerlessness in changing the outcome.
It’s up to you
Highlighting the responsibility lying with the other person to decide the course of the relationship.
Oh those big brown eyes they haunt me in my sleep now
Expressing the haunting effect of the memories associated with the person's eyes, even in dreams.
Make me feel alive
Describing the contradictory emotions of feeling alive and then broken upon waking up.
Then break me as I wake up
Addressing the emotional pain and scars inflicted by the person.
Oh you hurt my heart and left some scars
Acknowledging the irreversible impact of the emotional hurt caused.
You can’t take back
Stressing the inability to undo the emotional damage.
Made me feel a pain like one I’d never felt before
Describing an intense and unprecedented emotional pain caused by the person.
Baby look into my eyes again and remember me for who I am
Pleading with the person to see and remember the true self.
There’s so much left to say
Expressing the existence of unspoken words and unresolved feelings.
Holding on is probably not best for me
Acknowledging the difficulty of holding onto the past and its impact on well-being.
Still it weighs on me
Despite recognizing the potential harm, feeling the weight of emotional attachment.
I gotta break it gotta get away
Deciding to break free from the emotional burden and take control of the situation.
It’s up to me
Emphasizing personal responsibility for the decision to move on.
But somehow something about us so unfinished
Expressing a sense of incompleteness and lingering emotions about the relationship.
Got me needing more
Feeling a need for closure or resolution despite the intention to move forward.
Haven’t seen your face in months now
Not physically seeing the person for an extended period, but their presence remains in thoughts.
Still the thought of losing you don’t make sense in my head
Expressing the confusion of still caring deeply despite logical understanding.
I know I can’t put a time stamp on when I’ll be over you
Acknowledging the uncertainty of when the emotional healing process will occur.
But I’ll be happy somewhere down the road
Anticipating eventual happiness and relief from the emotional burden in the future.
Without the load
Envisioning a future without the weight and emotional baggage.
I know that I’m not over you
Admitting the ongoing emotional attachment and difficulty in moving on.
Doesn’t matter what I do
Expressing the futility of efforts to escape reminders of the person.
Everyone just looks like you
Feeling that everyone resembles the person, making it challenging to forget.
Wish i would have recognized
Expressing regret for not realizing the impact of the person's eyes earlier.
That your big brown eyes won’t leave my mind I fell in love
Stating that the memory of the person's big brown eyes persists, indicating a lasting love.
