Lyrics

(Since I saw you last there's been many a sunset)

Reflecting on the passage of time since the last encounter

(And every day we're apart seems like a week)

Expressing the prolonged feeling of separation

(Oh, but I know you would love to hear when we first met)

Nostalgia for recalling the initial meeting or moments together

(But every day we're apart seems like a week)

Reiteration of the sentiment regarding the extended duration of being apart


Since I saw you last there's been many a sunset

Reiteration of the reflection on time passed since the last meeting

(You don't need to break it)

Suggesting there's no need to disrupt or alter something

And every day we're apart seems like a week

Reiterating the sense of elongated separation

(Gold is all you see)

Implying a fixation on material wealth or possessions

Oh, but I know you would love to hear when we first met

Recollection of a desire to share the story of the initial meeting or relationship start

(I don't even understand)

Expressing confusion or a lack of comprehension

Every day were apart seems like a week

Restating the feeling of time passing slowly due to separation


Draped in monotony

Sensation of being wrapped in sameness or routine

What's my life gotten me?

Questioning the fulfillment or purpose of one's life

Hard to be glorious when two minds meet in the corner

Difficulty in feeling exceptional or splendid when minds converge but go unnoticed

And a story is being told

Describing the act of storytelling between individuals

By me to you, take another hit, what else to do?

Suggesting an alternative escape or method of coping (possibly through substance use)

Think about leaving the house

Contemplation of leaving home but hindered by persistent fears

But my fears aren't letting up

Struggling with fears that prevent taking action


We'll always love you but, that's not my fault

Affirmation of continual love despite potential faults

We'll always love you but, that's not the point

Reasserting the everlasting affection without focusing on culpability

(It's all our fault, and and it's on me you're in pain)

Acknowledging responsibility for someone else's pain and its impact

We always loved you

Reaffirmation of constant love


(We'll always love you but, that's not the point)

Reiteration of everlasting love with a divergence from the main point

Night time, I'm fine dreaming of another life

Repeated expression of being content during nighttime, dreaming of an alternate life

Night time, I'm fine dreaming of another life

-

Night time, I'm fine dreaming of another life

-

(We'll always love you but, that's not the point)

Restating the persistent love while acknowledging a deviation from the main subject

Night time on fire dreaming of another life

Reiteration of nighttime thoughts about an alternative existence, possibly a longing for change

Night time, I'm fine dreaming of another life

Repeated expression of being content during nighttime, dreaming of an alternate life

Night time, I'm fine dreaming of another life

-

Night time, I'm fine dreaming of another life

Continued expression of contentment during the night while dreaming of a different life
