Lyrics

A chili wind is blowing

A cold and harsh wind is blowing.

And I'm all covered up

The speaker is covered in despair and desperation.

With despair and desperation

Expressing the overwhelming emotions that won't subside.

And it just won't let me up

The struggle to overcome the emotional burden persists.

It's come in time to face the truth

Acknowledging the need to confront and accept the truth.

And somehow I got to find the strength to move

Seeking the inner strength required to move forward.

I gotta get up and get over you

Expressing the determination to rise above the emotional pain.


Another dawn it breaking

A new day is beginning.

And the people pass me by

Observing people passing by, seemingly unaware of the speaker's struggle.

And they don't know how hard I'm making

Highlighting the difficulty of hiding the internal turmoil.

And there ain't no place to hide

No refuge or escape from the emotional distress is apparent.

I've got to find some resistance, forgetting your existence

Expressing the need to resist and forget the person causing pain.

I've got to get up and get over you

Reiterating the determination to overcome the emotional turmoil.

If I could have one more chance

Expressing a desire for another opportunity.

With you by my side

Imagining being together again.

You know I would take back that moment

Regretting a specific moment when farewells were exchanged.

When we said goodbye ooh yeah

Reflecting on the pain of saying goodbye.


A chili wind is still blowing

Reiterating the presence of a harsh wind.

And the sun it going down

Describing the sunset and the approaching darkness.

And the streets are all in tears

Symbolizing the sadness in the streets.

And there not a soul around

Isolation and loneliness with no one around.

It's coming time to face the truth

Reiterating the need to confront the truth.

And it's so hard to say I I gotta to do

Expressing the difficulty of acknowledging what needs to be done.

Somehow I got to get up and get over you

Reiterating the resolve to overcome the pain and move on.

Ooh man ooh hey get over you hey get over you

Additional expressions of determination to get over the person.

I gotta get over you I gotta get over you oh

Final emphasis on the commitment to move past the emotional distress.
