Fall Apart
Embracing Love's Pain: Mavericks' "Fall Apart" Meaning
Lyrics
The story of you and I has beautiful memories
The tale or history of our relationship holds beautiful and cherished memories.
'Til lonesome and weary sighs start keepin' them company
Until feelings of loneliness and weariness start accompanying those memories.
As soon as they all gather 'round, along comes misery
Once these emotions gather around, misery follows shortly.
Then here we go again, here we go again
This situation repeats or cycles, suggesting a recurring pattern of emotional turmoil.
So if an old friend of mine comes knockin' upon my door
If an old friend visits, there's nothing new I can share because they've heard it all before.
All I could tell him now, he's already heard before
It's expressed that experiencing love, even if lost, is preferable to not experiencing it at all.
It's better to love and lose, to never have played at all
It's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved.
For sometimes losers are the only ones who win
Sometimes those who lose in love gain valuable experiences and lessons.
I'd rather fall apart than never knowing loving you
Preferably, experiencing emotional breakdown is better than never having loved you.
For every broken hearted lover, love was once anew
Every person who has suffered a broken heart once felt love anew.
And that will be the hope that gets me through eternity
Hope in enduring love and memories sustains through eternity.
Along with all the memories that belong to you and me
Cherished memories form an integral part of this hope and eternity.
A fortunate man I am that you were a part of me
Expresses gratitude for being fortunate to have had you as a part of life.
The game has been played and I'm just shy of a victory
Implies that despite participation in the "game" of love, victory is yet to be achieved.
The heartaches that carry on will soon be history
Belief that the ongoing heartaches will eventually become a thing of the past.
Let's hope the world is full of losers in the end
Expresses a wish for a world where those who experience loss in love are abundant.
I'd rather fall apart than never knowing loving you
Reiterates the sentiment that falling apart due to love is preferable to never experiencing it.
For every broken hearted lover, love was once anew
States that every person who has a broken heart once experienced love renewed.
And that will be the hope that gets me through eternity
Hope for enduring love and memories to provide strength for eternity.
Along with all the memories that belong to you and me
Emphasizes the significance of memories intertwined with eternal hope.
I'd rather fall apart than never knowing loving you
Repeats the sentiment that falling apart due to love is preferable to never experiencing it.
For every broken hearted lover, love was once anew
Every person who has a broken heart once experienced love renewed.
And that will be the hope that gets me through eternity
