Yesterday
Love's Fading Echo: The Bittersweet Tale of Yesterday
Lyrics
Because we love we have to lose
Love often involves experiencing loss; it's an inherent part of loving.
Those are the rules
Loss is a fundamental aspect governed by certain established principles or norms.
Because we never seem to learn
We tend not to grasp the lessons from past experiences.
We endlessly return
Despite experiencing loss, we find ourselves repeatedly going back to the same situations.
We had the whole world between us, a wide open sky
Despite being separated with vast distance, the world was ours to explore.
Love was so easy, we didn't even try
Love was so natural and effortless that we didn't need to make an effort.
Gold in our hands that no time could take away
We possessed something valuable that seemed immune to the passage of time.
Oh that was yesterday
All of this belonged to the past; it's no longer the present reality.
When all was love and love was all
At one point, everything revolved around love; it was the core of our existence.
We sang our song
We expressed our affection through music or words.
How silver sweet we sound by night
We sounded melodious and pleasant during nighttime, but that's a thing of the past.
It's gone with the light
Our melodious connection disappeared along with the fading light.
The leaves are falling past the window
The changing seasons are evident through falling leaves outside the window.
We drink our coffee with no sound
We share a moment together without speaking.
The sun is shining but it's still cold
Despite the presence of sunlight, there's a lingering coldness in our relationship.
And you say, Why are you still around?
Your question implies puzzlement at why the connection persists despite difficulties.
Now we have the whole world between us, a wide open sky
Similar to before, we're distanced by a vast world and an open sky.
Love gone so easy, we didn't even try
Love departed effortlessly without any conscious effort from either of us.
Gold through our hands and now we both have to pay
The valuable thing we possessed slipped away, and now there are consequences to face.
Only for yesterday
Consequences or payment are solely associated with the past, particularly 'yesterday'.
