Separated
Unraveling Heartache: Deciphering The Hollies' 'Separated' Message
Lyrics
Why, why ignore me
Feeling ignored and excluded
And keep me out all of the time
Being kept away consistently
Do you think i don't love you
Questioning the reciprocation of love
It's only in your mind
Emphasizing that the lack of love is a misconception
You don't give me your reason
Seeking explanation for the partner's behavior
You don't explain all your ways
Expressing confusion over the partner's actions
It must be the change of the season
Attributing the situation to seasonal changes
That's all i can say
Limited explanation due to the perceived impact of seasons
Was it something that i said
Wondering if something said caused a loss of love
That made you stop loving me
Expressing a desire for continued love
I only want for the best
Seeking the best for the partner, even if not in their life
Not to see you in my life
Stating that the absence of the partner diminishes importance
Makes me so unimportant
Feeling insignificant without the partner
I can't live with myself
Struggling with self-worth due to the separation
Gone, gone is tomorrow
Acknowledging the uncertainty of the future
I'm only living for today
Embracing the present as the primary focus
I never thought you'd ever leave me
Expressing surprise at the partner leaving
Now you have gone away.
Reflecting on the partner's departure
