Broken Engagement
Love Lost: A Tale of Silent Longing
Lyrics
They were standing by the window
They were together, possibly in a contemplative moment.
On the night he kissed her cheek
He kissed her gently on the night in question.
He had waited long in silence
He waited in silence for her to express herself.
Waited long for her to speak
She took a long time to respond or share her feelings.
When at last he whispered softly
Finally, he softly spoke as a cool breeze touched her.
As the cool breeze kissed her head
Her response was delayed, possibly holding something important.
She had waited long to tell him
She waited a long time to reveal something about what others claimed he said.
What they told her he had said
Referring to rumors about him loving someone else.
Oh they say you love another
Addressing the accusation of loving someone else.
That you never did love me
Questioning the authenticity of his love.
If these words be true my darling
Expressing that if the accusations are true, she will let him go.
I'll forever set you free
Offering freedom if he indeed loves another.
They are true he hardly answered
Confirming the accusations, but with a minimal response.
As the sun and stars above
Comparing the truth to the vastness of the sun and stars.
When they told you my intentions
Referring to the revelation of his true intentions.
Then they told you of my love
Mentioning the disclosure of his love.
He turned deathly pale and angry
He reacted with intense emotion, a mix of paleness and anger.
Left her standing by the gate
He abruptly left her, leaving her alone by the gate.
Sent a message by her sister
He communicated through her sister, possibly with regrets.
But the message came too late
Unfortunately, the message arrived too late to make a difference.
God in Heaven sent an Angel
A metaphorical intervention, an Angel sent by God to alleviate her pain.
To relieve her ache and pain
She peacefully departed to Heaven on the Angel's wing.
She went drifting off to Heaven
Her journey to the afterlife is described as graceful and divine.
On an Angel's snow white wing
She ascended with purity, symbolized by the snow-white wing.
He was standing by her casket
He faced the reality of her death beside her casket.
As he looked upon her face
Gazing at her lifeless face, he may have felt remorse.
Then he realized he loved her
Realizing too late that he truly loved her and no one can replace her.
And no one could take her place
Understanding the depth of his love after her demise.
