Torch Song
Eternal Flames: Todd Rundgren's Torch Song
Lyrics
When you say goodbye
Expressing the act of saying goodbye.
To the love that we knew
Referring to the end of a past romantic relationship.
This you can be sure of
Emphasizing certainty in the aftermath of the breakup.
I will torch on for you
Committing to continue feeling love and passion despite separation.
I will carry my torch for you
Promising to persist in carrying the emotional torch for the ex-partner.
When you break somebody?s heart
Describing the emotional impact of breaking someone's heart.
Nothing much left to do
Highlighting a sense of helplessness or lack of recourse after causing heartbreak.
Howsoever sadly,
Introducing a tone of sorrow or regret.
I will torch on for you
Reiterating the commitment to maintain emotional connection despite the circumstances.
I will carry my torch for you
Reaffirming the determination to carry the torch of love.
Somewhere in the back of my heart it?s there
Acknowledging the persistence of feelings in the depths of the heart.
And every day it finds me and reminds me
Describing a daily reminder of the emotions associated with the past relationship.
I will bear my cross
Expressing a willingness to endure challenges and hardships.
I will bear your cross too
Pledging to share the burdens and difficulties of the ex-partner.
I will pine forever
Committing to long-lasting feelings of yearning or sadness.
I will torch on for you
Repeating the commitment to persist in carrying the emotional torch.
I will carry my torch for you
Reiterating the determination to carry the torch of love despite separation.
