Retrograde
Eternal Longing: The Resilience of Love in 'Retrograde' by The Lost Tapes
Lyrics
Well tired of feeling alone
Expressing fatigue from loneliness
But I ain't afraid
Asserting lack of fear
And I am the one that you know
Identifying oneself as the familiar entity
To come back again
Promising a return
But I'm only dealing with time
Dealing with the concept of time
But I ain't awake
Not fully awake or aware
I know all the friend that you know will come back someday
Acknowledging the return of known friends
But I'm begging on you
Pleading or relying on someone
You want love, the one that you need forever
Desiring everlasting love
You want me, the kind that you've had before
Expressing a desire for a familiar kind of love
You want love, the kind that's like nasty weather
Describing love as unpredictable and stormy
You want me, you want me to bring it to you
Expressing readiness to deliver the desired love
You want love, the kind that you need forever
Reiterating the desire for enduring love
You want me, the one that you've had before
Desiring a return to a past relationship
You want love, the kind thats like nasty weather
Comparing love to turbulent weather
You want me, you want me to bring it to you
Expressing readiness to provide the desired love
Cuz I am the one that you've heard
Confirming being the one heard about
But I ain't afraid
Reiterating lack of fear
And I am the one that you know
Repeating identity and promise of return
That comes back again
Reiterating the commitment to come back
And I am the one that you need
Emphasizing being the needed one
Cuz I am the way
Declaring a unique path or method
And I am the one that you know
Reiterating being the known entity
That comes back today
Stating the return today
But I'm begging on you
Pleading or relying on someone (repeated)
You want love, the kind that you need forever
Desiring enduring love (repeated)
You want me, the one that you've had before
Desiring a return to a past relationship (repeated)
You want love, the kind that's like nasty weather
Describing love as unpredictable and stormy (repeated)
You want me, you want me to bring it to you
Expressing readiness to provide the desired love (repeated)
You want love, the kind that you need forever
Reiterating the desire for enduring love (repeated)
You want me, the one that you've had before
Desiring a return to a past relationship (repeated)
You want love, the kind thats like nasty weather
Comparing love to turbulent weather (repeated)
You want me, you want me to bring it to you
Expressing readiness to provide the desired love (repeated)
