Catch Me
Embracing Shadows: A Tale of Love, Loss, and Waiting
Lyrics
He stood with her waiting for the train
He was standing with her, waiting for the train.
Saw her eyes trying to hide the pain
He noticed her trying to conceal her pain in her eyes.
He had to look away
He had to avert his gaze or look away from her.
Funny to think that they once felt the same
Reflecting on the irony that they once shared similar feelings.
He watched the train slowly pull away
He observed the train gradually departing.
Thought he heard the diesel engines say
He thought he heard the train's engines conveying a message.
Every day you'll pay
There's a cost to be paid every day.
Remembering what she would always say
Recollection of something she used to frequently say.
Catch me if I fall
Asking for support in case of a fall.
Hold me when the night is dark
Requesting comfort during dark nights.
And the world is cold and I feel all alone
Expressing loneliness and feeling isolated when the world seems cold.
I remember waking seeing sunshine flowing in
Recollection of a moment waking up to sunshine and seeing the person next to them.
Shining on your messy hair as you
Describing the sunshine illuminating the person's tousled hair.
Slept there next to me not so long ago
Reflecting on the proximity of the person who used to sleep beside them.
See the stars high above the tracks
Observing stars in the sky above the train tracks.
You can wait but she's not coming back
Realizing that waiting won't bring the person back.
She is yesterday
She belongs to the past.
That won't stop you waiting anyway
Despite knowing she's from the past, the waiting continues.
Waiting for a light that never shines
Waiting for something that never materializes.
Hoping for her voice on the line
Longing to hear her voice, yet it remains a hope.
But the days go by
Days pass by, life moves on.
From time to time you'll think of what she said
Remembering occasional moments of her words.
Catch me if I fall
Reiterating the plea for support in case of a fall.
Hold me when the night is dark
Seeking solace during dark and lonely times.
And the world is cold and I am all alone
Expressing isolation and feeling alone when the world is cold.
