Before You Go
Tender Kid's "Before You Go": A Poignant Tale of Love, Loss, and Moving On
Lyrics
Fearlessly I hurry to your door
Fearlessly rushing to your door, facing the situation boldly.
I won’t ask you how long I’ve got
Not questioning how much time is left before your departure.
Till you go
Anticipating the moment when you leave.
It seems as though I’ve got a
Feeling a heavy burden of sorrow.
Mountain of sorrow
Experiencing a significant emotional pain.
You’re leaving me something
Receiving something unexpected or unanticipated from you.
I never thought I’d know
Encountering emotions or situations previously unimaginable.
I know
Acknowledging the emotions and situations experienced.
You know you’ve got the power
Acknowledging your ability to influence the situation.
You know you’ve got the time
Acknowledging your availability of time to handle the situation.
I know I’ll stay here for ever
Expressing a commitment to stay in this situation indefinitely.
You know you’ve got the time
Acknowledging your ample time to deal with the circumstances.
At least
Emphasizing the importance of time.
Free me before you go
Pleading to be liberated before your departure.
Counting all the reasons
Reflecting on various reasons in challenging conditions.
In the snow
Considering circumstances in a metaphorical snowy environment.
No reason for me to end up
Feeling there's no justification for ending up alone.
All alone
Expressing the fear of being left in isolation.
Calling out my friends for
Confronting friends for their actions or behaviors.
What they’ve done
Questioning the actions of friends.
Ain’t no reason for me to hang on
Finding no reason to hold on or continue enduring.
Hang on
Reiterating the struggle to hold on.
You know you’ve got the power
Acknowledging your influential power in the situation.
You know you’ve got the time
Acknowledging your ample time available to manage the situation.
You know I’ll stay here forever
Reiterating a commitment to stay in this challenging circumstance.
You know you’ve got the time
Acknowledging your sufficient time to handle the circumstances.
At least
Reemphasizing the importance of time.
Free me before you go
Pleading to be liberated before your departure, reiteration.
You know you’ve got the power
Acknowledging your influential power in the situation, repetition.
You know you’ve got the time
Acknowledging your ample time available to manage the situation, repetition.
You know I’ll stay here forever
Reiterating a commitment to stay in this challenging circumstance, repetition.
You know you’ve got the time
Acknowledging your sufficient time to handle the circumstances, repetition.
At least
Reemphasizing the importance of time, repetition.
Free me before you go
Pleading to be liberated before your departure, repetition.
