Lyrics
Who'd ever thought that this summer would last forever
Expressing surprise that the summer seems unending.
Who'd ever thought that I could cry so many tears
Surprised by the depth of emotions, experiencing a lot of tears.
But now I'm all alone, standing by my phone
Feeling alone, waiting by the phone, uncertain of what to say if given another chance.
Wondering what to say if you ever call to say that we'll give it another try
Contemplating what to say if the person calls to suggest giving the relationship another try.
Who'd ever thought that I was strong enough to carry on
Unexpected strength found to continue despite difficulties.
I never thought that I was built to face this fight
Realizing one's own strength to face and endure challenges.
When you call my name it's just the same reasons for me to doubt
Doubting the sincerity when the name is called, questioning motives.
You're just here to say the things I want to hear
Expressing skepticism that the words spoken are genuine.
I stand by you like the river needs the rain
Committing to stand by the person like a river needs rain, indicating support.
I die for you, you know that it's true
Professing a willingness to sacrifice for the person because of true love.
I stand by you like the fire needs the flame
Reiterating the commitment to stand by, comparing it to the essential nature of fire needing flame.
In good times and in bad times I stand by you
Promising loyalty in both good and bad times.
I try to face the fact that life is moving on
Trying to accept the reality that life is moving forward.
I try to face the fact, you're in love with someone else
Acknowledging the painful truth that the person is in love with someone else.
Now it's washed away like a castle of sand
Comparing the situation to a castle of sand, emphasizing its temporary and fragile nature.
There's nothing left to say
Expressing that there's nothing more to be said in the face of the situation.
Why can't this story end like we said that it would
Wishing the story could end as previously agreed.
You know that
Stating the enduring commitment to stand by the person.
I stand by you as long as my heart is beating
Linking commitment to the beating heart, symbolizing unwavering loyalty.
I would die for you
Reiterating the willingness to die for the person as a testament to deep love.
You will never see me leave
Emphasizing a promise never to leave, reinforcing commitment.
I die for you
Reiterating a willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice for the person.
