Nova's Cosmic Yearning: A Love Unattainable
Lyrics
How can I look away now that I've seen you
Expresses difficulty in looking away after seeing someone.
Do you really know, is it fading or does it grow
Questions whether understanding deepens or fades over time.
I know you've tried and I'm trying too
Acknowledges mutual effort in trying to make the relationship work.
But timid hearts long to break, long to find their muse
Suggests a desire for breaking free and finding inspiration.
And if I can reach the stars
Expresses a desire to reach ambitious goals symbolized by stars.
Maybe I can reach you
Links reaching the stars to connecting with the person.
After all you gave all I do is give into you
Reflects on giving in the relationship.
This love is nova
Describes love as explosive and intense like a nova.
This love is tempted
Indicates that the love is alluring or tempting.
This love wants so much more than taken for granted

This love wants something

Conveys a yearning for everything in love, despite limitations.
Ooh
A vocal expression, possibly conveying emotion or longing.
I feel so betrayed
Expresses a feeling of betrayal.
By a universe that led me back to you
Reflects on being led back to someone by the universe.
And I can't help feeling ashamed
Admits to feeling ashamed after saying something untrue.
After what I said was useless, now it's just not true
Reflects on the previous statement being rendered useless.
And if I can reach the stars Maybe I can reach you
Reiterates the desire to reach the stars and connect with the person.
After all you gave let me return it to you
Acknowledges the giving in the relationship and returning it.
