Sorry
Apologies in the Rain: Youth Group's Reflections on Unfound Desires
Lyrics
Did you find what you were looking for in room 13 of the 16th floor?
Asking if a specific place, room 13 on the 16th floor, provided what was sought
Did it all become suddenly clear to you?
Questioning if everything suddenly made sense
Did you find what you were looking for in the silence between his snores?
Asking if the desired answer was found amidst someone else's sleep sounds
Did you find it there at 3am?
Questioning if the answer was discovered at 3 am
Here's a new dress, do you fit it?
Offering something new, questioning if it suited or matched
Did you find it? Oh, you didn't?
Asking if what was sought was found, realizing it wasn't
Well I'm so sorry.
Expressing regret and apology
So sorry.
Reiterating deep sorrow and regret
I'm so terribly, terribly sorry.
Intensifying the expression of profound regret
Did you find what you were looking for, looking out onto Rue Balfour?
Asking if what was sought was found while observing Rue Balfour
Don't you know these streets are so romantic in the rain.
Highlighting the romantic nature of the streets, possibly questioning if that context helped in finding what was sought
Do you find these European handball players beautiful?
Asking about appreciation for beauty in a specific context, relating to European handball players
I can't help it, I'm just the same as you.
Admitting a shared human inclination or weakness
I held a candle and you lit it.
Describing a symbolic action of offering support, asking if it was acknowledged
Did you find it? Oh, you didn't?
Realizing the sought-after answer wasn't found despite efforts
Did you find what you were looking for? Oh, I just don't care anymore.
Expressing indifference towards whether the answer was found or not, suggesting a release from caring
It's a free world. Go out and be an artist.
Encouraging freedom to pursue personal passions and interests
