For the Good Times
Embracing Memories: Finding Joy in Past Love
Lyrics
Don't look so sad, I know it's over
Expressing awareness of the end of a relationship, acknowledging sadness.
But life goes on and this ol' world will keep on turning
Life continues despite the breakup, emphasizing the ongoing nature of the world.
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together
Reflecting on the positive aspects of the shared time and expressing gratitude for it.
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning
Discouraging dwelling on the past and the consequences of the separation.
Lay your head upon my pillow
Inviting physical closeness and comfort.
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Encouraging intimacy and connection through proximity.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window
Creating a sensory atmosphere with raindrops, setting a scene of emotional tenderness.
And make believe you love me one more time
Suggesting a moment of pretending or reminiscing, desiring to feel loved once more.
For the good times
Repeating the title, emphasizing the plea to relive the good moments.
I'll get along, you'll find another
Expressing resilience and the belief in finding new love.
And I'll be here if you should find you ever need me
Offering ongoing support if needed in the future.
Don't say a word about tomorrow, or forever
Discouraging discussions about the future or permanence, focusing on the present.
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me
Emphasizing that there's time for sadness later, encouraging a focus on the current moment.
Lay your head upon my pillow
Repeating the invitation for physical closeness and comfort.
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Reiterating the desire for emotional and physical closeness.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window
Continuing the sensory atmosphere with raindrops, reinforcing emotional intimacy.
And make believe you love me one more time
Echoing the earlier plea to pretend or recapture the feeling of being loved.
For the good times
Repeating the title, emphasizing the longing for reliving the positive moments.
For the good times
Repeating the plea for reliving the good times, concluding the song.
