It's Not Over
Embracing Time's Echoes
Lyrics
The years go by, drawing lines across my face,
The passage of time is evident on my face, marked by experiences.
But I don't mind, because my best parts stay the same
Despite aging, the core aspects of myself remain unchanged.
I reminisce infatuations from a past I won't repeat,
Reflecting on past infatuations that won't be repeated.
But it's not over
Despite past experiences, the journey is ongoing, not concluded.
Are you okay? Been meaning to ask you for a while,
Expressing concern about someone's well-being over a period.
Cause you don't seem okay, & I wish you'd let me help,
Desire to assist someone who seems troubled and reluctant to accept help.
With what could've been, or should've been, in this past you won't repeat,
Reflecting on missed opportunities and choices in the past.
But it's not over, you can't let it end this way
Emphasizing that the situation is not a conclusive ending.
&, it's not over
Reiterating that the situation is ongoing and not finalized.
I should've said,
Expressing a realization of a missed opportunity for communication.
Please, please don't go, as you were walkin' away,
A regretful plea to prevent someone from leaving.
But how could I have known, it'd turn out this way?
Reflecting on the uncertainty of outcomes despite intentions.
& it's not over, we can't let end this way,
Stressing the importance of not letting the situation end negatively.
No, it's not over, to me
Affirming that, for the speaker, the situation is not concluded.
& these long drives, man, they really take me back,
Long drives evoke memories of a possibly better time in the past.
To another time, maybe the best I'd ever had
Reflecting on the significance of past experiences during drives.
& these photographs & conversations, from a past I won't repeat,
Mentioning the impact of photographs and conversations from the past.
But it's not over, I can't let it end this way
Emphasizing the ongoing nature of the situation despite past memories.
No, it's not over
Reiterating that the situation is not concluded and should continue.
I should've said,
Repeating the regretful plea to prevent someone from leaving.
Please, please don't go, as you were walkin' away,
Expressing a sense of powerlessness in foreseeing the future outcome.
But how could I have known, it'd turn out this way?
Reflecting on the unpredictability of how things turned out.
& it's not over, we can't let end this way,
Stressing the importance of not concluding the situation negatively.
No, it's not over, to me
Reaffirming that, for the speaker, the situation is not over.
No, it's not over to me
Emphasizing personal investment in the ongoing nature of the situation.
I should've said,
Repeating the regretful plea for someone not to leave.
Please, please don't go, as you were walkin' away,
Expressing the difficulty in predicting the future outcome of a departure.
But how could I have known, it'd turn out this way?
Reflecting on the uncertainty of outcomes despite intentions.
& it's not over, we can't let end this way,
Stressing the importance of not letting the situation end negatively.
No, it's not over, to me
Reiterating that the situation is not concluded and should continue.
No, it's not over to me
Affirming personal commitment to the ongoing nature of the situation.
