Thank You
Gratitude in Goodbye: A Tribute to Love's Bittersweet Journey
Lyrics
Ever wish upon a star and have the dream come true?
Reflecting on past wishes upon a star and dreams coming true.
That's the way it was with me the day that I met you.
Describing the memorable day of meeting the person being addressed.
We fell in love, how could we see
Expressing the beginning of a romantic relationship and the blindness to future challenges.
That there would come the day
Awareness of an impending day when a stronger love would replace the current one.
A greater love would take my place, and leave me but to say..
Acknowledging the inevitable shift in affections and the need to express gratitude.
I thank you for your love,
Expressing gratitude for the love received.
Thank you, that's all that I can say.
Reiterating thanks as the primary sentiment.
As for me, it's hard to just become a memory of our love.
Acknowledging the difficulty of becoming a mere memory in the context of love shared.
Thank you for your touch.
Grateful for the physical closeness and connection experienced.
Thank you for when you needed me.
Expressing thanks for being needed and valued in the relationship.
Please just go, and leave with my love,
Requesting the person to leave but to carry the speaker's love.
The only love I know.
Emphasizing that the departing love is the only one the speaker understands.
Our love.
Repetition of the importance of the shared love.
Seasons come, and seasons go,
Observing the cyclic nature of seasons and the inevitability of change.
The night must turn to day.
Highlighting the necessity for night to turn into day, symbolizing change and progression.
It would be so, so wrong of me to try to make you stay.
Acknowledging the wrongness of attempting to prevent the natural course of separation.
All I gave you was my best,
Claiming to have given the best in the relationship, with tears being the only hidden emotions.
My tears are all I hide.
Admitting that tears are the only emotions concealed by the speaker.
There's just one thing that I must say,
Expressing the need to convey a crucial message before stepping aside.
Before I step aside.
Preparing to express a significant sentiment before parting.
I thank you for your love,
Reiterating gratitude for the love received.
Thank you, that's all that I can say.
Emphasizing thanks as the primary response to the shared love.
As for me, it's hard to just become a memory of our love.
Reiterating the difficulty of becoming a memory in the context of shared love.
Thank you for your touch.
Expressing gratitude for the physical closeness and connection experienced.
Thank you for when you needed me.
Thanking for being needed and valued in the relationship.
Please just go, and leave me with my love,
Requesting the person to leave but to carry the speaker's love.
The only love I know.
Emphasizing that the departing love is the only one the speaker understands.
Our love.
Repetition of the importance of the shared love.
