When Mountains Fall
Love Endures, Even When Mountains Fall - Exploring the Meaning Behind Stratovarius' Lyrics
Lyrics
It was just like yesterday,
Reflecting on a past moment, feeling like it was recent
When you chose to leave and I to stay
Recalling a decision where one person left and the other stayed
It was a warm and sunny day
Describing the weather as pleasant, contrasting with inner emotional turmoil
But my heart felt as heavy as stone
Feeling emotionally burdened despite outward conditions
Never told me where you went,
Not being informed about the departure, lack of communication
Then again I never tried to ask
Admitting to not actively seeking information
Now I know in life you have one chance
Realization of life's limited opportunities and the need to seize them
And you better use it well
Emphasizing the importance of making good use of opportunities
When the mountains fall and the oceans flood
Using grand natural events to illustrate the ongoing search for someone
I'm still in search of you
Continued pursuit of the missing person despite monumental challenges
Only thing I want to say -
Expressing the primary message being conveyed
I'm still in love with you
Declaring enduring feelings of love despite circumstances
Finally I found your place,
Discovery of the person's final resting place after a significant delay
Sadly I came three summers late
Regretting arriving too late to connect with the person
Now I am sitting by your grave
Presently being at the person's grave, expressing grief
And I sing this song for you
Dedicating a song as a tribute to the departed individual
When the mountains fall and the oceans flood
Reiterating the ongoing search despite immense challenges
I'm still in search of you
Reaffirming persistent feelings of love amidst adversity
Only thing I want to say -
Reiterating the primary message of enduring love
I'm still in love with you
Stating unwavering love despite circumstances and time
One last thing I have to say -
Expressing a final sentiment of continued affection
I'm still in love with you
Reiterating the ongoing love toward the departed individual
