Lyrics
Long days turn to years
Reflecting on the passage of time, suggesting a sense of duration.
We know it from the start
Acknowledging awareness of a situation from the beginning.
And as the colours faded away
Describing a fading of colors, possibly symbolic of a loss or change.
We were dancing in the dark
Recalling a moment of dancing in the dark, implying a shared experience.
Long nights oh why'd you run
Expressing lament or questioning why long nights have passed.
You knew you had my heart
Acknowledging that the person understood they held the speaker's heart.
I'd still throw it all away
Willing to give up everything for the chance to be with the person again.
Just to be right where you are
Desiring to be in the presence of the person despite sacrifices.
We were dancing on the tables
Recounting moments of joy and freedom, possibly metaphorical.
We were trippin' through the night
Describing a carefree and adventurous night.
We were livin' like a fable
Living life in a way that seemed like a tale or story.
Never thought we'd say goodbye
Expressing surprise at the unexpected farewell.
Tell me why
Pleading for an explanation or reason behind the goodbye.
We say goodbye
Reiterating the act of saying goodbye, emphasizing its significance.
It's do or die
Highlighting a critical decision or moment of importance.
One more night
Expressing a desire for one more night, possibly to reconcile or relive.
One more night
Repeating the plea for one more night, emphasizing the longing.
Still feels like yesterday
Continuing to feel a recent event as if it happened just yesterday.
We were kids so far from home
Recalling a time in youth when the speaker and the person were far from home.
We try to run but we can't escape
Attempting to escape but unable to forget the memories.
The memories that we hold
Referencing memories that are still held onto.
Was it LA or London
Mentioning specific locations, possibly where significant events occurred.
Where'd you go? Oh
Expressing uncertainty about the person's whereabouts.
I'm haunted by you
Feeling haunted or persistently affected by the memory of the person.
I feel you close, yeah
Sensing the person's presence despite physical distance.
We were dancing on the tables
Repeating the description of joyous moments of dancing on tables.
We were trippin' through the night
Recalling a night of adventure and exploration.
We were livin' like a fable
Emphasizing the fantastical nature of their shared experiences.
Never thought we'd say goodbye
Reiterating the unexpected nature of saying goodbye.
Tell me why
Seeking an explanation or understanding for the farewell.
We say goodbye
Repeating the act of saying goodbye, indicating its lasting impact.
It's do or die
Highlighting the gravity of the situation, suggesting urgency.
One more night
Expressing the desire for one more night, potentially as a final chance.
One more night
Reiterating the plea for one more night, reinforcing the emotional appeal.
