Restaurant
Yearning Hopes and Heartfelt Dreams in a World of Ambition
Lyrics
I worked so hard for that man
I worked hard for a man.
And he worked me to the bone
He made me work excessively.
Said success wont belong
He claimed success would come.
He bought that old factory
He bought an old factory.
Cause the rich are born free and thats how you want to be
Believing the rich are born free, and that's the desired lifestyle.
So I looked down from the rooftops one night
Observing from rooftops, realizing potential with constant support.
And I knew I could go far if you never left my sight
Believing in personal success if someone special stays close.
But this will never be what I want in some fancy restaurant like now.
Expressing dissatisfaction with current circumstances, not desiring a fancy restaurant lifestyle.
This will never be what I want, and all I ever wanted was you.
Reiterating that the desired life doesn't involve luxury but revolves around the person.
He was a beggar on a horse, he was another brave man
Describing someone as a beggar on a horse, possibly referring to someone with contradictions.
?? our jobs get sold
Unclear line, possibly about the loss of jobs.
He took the drinks from our hands so I took you in
Taking someone in after a disappointment, watching the sun set together.
my arms we watched the sun go down
Realizing being deceived, taking someone for granted.
Then I knew I had been taken for a fool
Reflecting on foolishness and regret.
I took you for granted I took fate as a rule
Acknowledging taking things for granted and accepting fate.
But this will never be what I want in some fancy restaurant like now.
Repeating dissatisfaction with the current lifestyle.
This'll never be what I want and all I ever wanted was you.
Reiterating that the desired life centers around the person, not luxury.
I need you now more than before
Expressing an increased need for someone.
I need you now more than before
Repeating the intensified need for someone.
I need you to be there true and fair
Expressing the need for true and fair support.
If I prove myself here I'll prove it anywhere
Linking personal success to proving oneself anywhere.
But this'll never be what I want in some fancy restaurant like now.
Repeating dissatisfaction with the current lifestyle.
This'll never be what I want and all I ever wanted was you.
Reiterating that the desired life centers around the person, not luxury.
This'll never be what I want. [x4]
Emphasizing the persistent unfulfillment of desires.
