Avalanche
A Symphony of Lost Love: Unveiling the Hidden Meanings in 'Avalanche' by The Midnight
Lyrics
You were a whisper in the night
You were a subtle presence during the night
And I loved you for a summer
I cherished our love for a brief period like a summer
But now that garden of delights
However, that delightful experience is now buried beneath the snow
Lies under snow cover
The once beautiful memories are now covered and hidden
Sail on in my memory
Retain a place in my recollections
I'll wave from the shoreline
I'll signal farewell from the edge of the water
A ship so grand you could not believe
An impressive ship beyond belief
Disembarking on an avalanche
Embarking on a destructive and overwhelming force
From butterfly wings
Origins of a major change from small actions
Saw my last chance
Witnessed the final opportunity
In a faded dream, when it's gone
In a fading dream, when it vanishes
Wherever you land, sing your song
Wherever you end up, express yourself
Take this dance, avalanche
Engage in this dance, be part of the overwhelming force
We were the star-crossed fantasy
We were a doomed romantic fantasy
That was never gonna hold us
That was destined to fail
Or our future histories
As well as the stories of our future
But maybe it was just to mold us
Yet, perhaps it was meant to shape us
Sail on in my memory
Remain in my memories as you sail away
I'll wave from the shoreline
I'll bid farewell from the edge of the water
A ship so grand you could not believe
An unbelievably grand ship
Disembarking on an avalanche
Setting off on a destructive and overwhelming force
From butterfly wings
Arising from the small and delicate actions
Saw my last chance
Saw my final opportunity
In a faded dream, when it's gone
In a fading dream, when it disappears
Wherever you land, sing your song
Wherever you end up, express yourself through your song
Take this dance, avalanche
Engage in this dance, be part of the overwhelming force
If I'd have known you, I'd have told you
If I had known you, I would have informed you
Would've skipped this and missed this
Would have avoided this and missed out on this
Waterfall in slow motion, devotion of a love
A gradual and steady descent, commitment to a love
Unsuitable but beautiful
Unsuitable but remarkably beautiful
If I'd have known you
If I had known you
I'd have come back a thousand times
I would have returned countless times
Just for the ride, avalanche
Just for the experience, the overwhelming force
From butterfly wings
Arising from the small and delicate actions
Saw my last chance
Saw my final opportunity
In a faded dream, when it's gone
In a fading dream, when it disappears
Wherever you land, sing your song
Wherever you end up, express yourself through your song
Take this dance, avalanche
Engage in this dance, be part of the overwhelming force
Avalanche, avalanche (from butterfly wings, say my last chance)
Overwhelming force, overwhelming force (arising from small actions, my last chance)
Avalanche, avalanche (in a faded dream, when it's gone)
Overwhelming force, overwhelming force (in a fading dream, when it disappears)
