You're Still Here
Eternal Echoes: Navigating Love's Unanswered Goodbye
Lyrics
My whole life changed that Friday night
Reflecting on a significant change in life that occurred on a Friday night.
I still remember how you smiled and hugged me tight
Recollection of a moment when the person smiled and hugged tightly.
I gave it my all
Expressing effort and commitment.
But you gave up the fight
Noting that the other person gave up the fight, possibly in the relationship.
You said I wasn't in your plan
Quoting the other person saying they were not part of their plan.
As you held tightly to my hand
Describing a moment of physical closeness despite the rejection.
But I will never understand why
Expressing confusion about why the other person didn't say goodbye.
You never said goodbye
Highlighting the absence of a farewell from the other person.
So I close my eyes
Repetition of closing eyes, possibly for introspection or coping.
I close my eyes
-I close my eyes
-And you're still here
Emphasizing the lingering presence of the other person despite their absence.
You're still here
-Found your shirt in my drawer
Finding a physical reminder of the person in the form of a shirt.
Took me back to that September
Triggering memories associated with a specific September.
Scanning pictures of our life
Engaging in the painful process of revisiting and remembering shared moments.
Cutting through me like a knife
-Always bumping into things
Experiencing difficulty moving on and hoping for the person's return.
Hoping it's you when my phone rings
-Please tell me what to do
Seeking guidance on how to handle memories of the person.
With all of my memories of you
-All I do is close my eyes
Repetition of closing eyes, indicating an attempt to escape or find solace.
I close my eyes
-I close my eyes
-And you're still here
Reiterating the persistent presence of the person in thoughts.
You're still here
-The sun is setting for you and I
Describing a symbolic sunset in the relationship.
My love, my love is this goodbye
Pondering if the current moment signifies a final goodbye in the relationship.
My love, my love, my love
Repeating the theme of farewell, questioning if it's indeed goodbye.
My love, my love this is goodbye
-I close my eyes
Repetition of closing eyes, suggesting a struggle to accept the reality.
I close my eyes
-I close my eyes
-Cos you're still here
Reiterating the continued presence of the person despite the apparent goodbye.
I close my eyes
-I close my eyes
-I close my eyes
-You're still here
-You're still here
Affirming that the person's presence is still felt even after their departure.
You're still here
