Bridges
Navigating Love's Storm: Thomas LaVine's Bridges Unveiled
Lyrics
Wherever you’re going
Encouragement to move forward in life.
Wherever you’re at
A reminder that progress is possible from any starting point.
Don’t get stuck while it drags you
Caution against getting trapped in the past.
Wrapped in the past
Reference to being entangled in historical events or memories.
Wait for summer to find you
Advice to be patient and let positive changes come in their own time.
‘Cause it’s going to work itself out
Belief that issues will resolve naturally.
When hurt somehow finds us
Recognition that pain is inevitable.
It comes like a storm
Comparison of emotional turmoil to a storm.
Washes up on the beaches,
Imagery of emotional turmoil washing ashore.
Lays on the shores
Depiction of emotional struggles laid bare.
Like a candle stopped burning
Metaphor for extinguished passion or hope.
A lighthouse went out in the night
Symbolic reference to a lost guiding light.
I need a place to start
Expression of the need for a fresh start.
Left with a broken heart
Feeling of being left emotionally shattered.
But love somehow finds you
Optimistic view that love can find individuals anywhere.
Wherever you are
Affirmation that love transcends location.
Who gave you the straw
Rhetorical question about facing overwhelming challenges.
To drink up the sea?
Metaphor questioning the ability to handle vast difficulties.
Who gave you the fire,
Question about the origin of one's inner strength.
To burn down the trees
Question regarding responsibility for destructive actions.
To be left to the ashes
Resulting consequences leading to desolation.
And choke all the weeds?
Consequence of destructive actions affecting the surroundings.
I need a place to start
Reiteration of the desire for a fresh start.
Left with a broken heart
Emphasis on the emotional aftermath of a broken heart.
But love somehow finds you
Reassurance that love can still find individuals.
Wherever you are
Confirmation that love is not bound by location.
Face yourself
Encouragement to self-reflect.
Leave it up to no one else
Call to take personal responsibility for one's actions.
Burn down the bridges
Metaphor for cutting ties with the past.
And leave them behind
Suggestion to move forward without looking back.
And I don’t know why
Expression of confusion or uncertainty about personal struggles.
I try to fight this fight
The internal conflict in trying to overcome challenges.
There’s something in me
Recognition of an inner force urging resilience.
That tells me to be
Call to embrace one's innate nature or strength.
I need a place to start
Reiteration of the need for a fresh start.
Left with a broken heart
Highlighting the emotional aftermath of heartbreak.
But love somehow finds you
Assurance that love can still find individuals.
Wherever you are
Confirmation that love transcends geographical boundaries.
