never could imagine life without
from the moment you walked into my world
never knew how long a loving flame would burn
but losing you has forced me to learn
that we cant change the way we feel inside
and every try at love never turns out right
we both know its better if we just let it go

so lets have
one last kiss
one last touch
one last tender moment between us
one last dance
to our first song
while pretending theres nothin wrong
lets lay here for a while and cherish every moment we're in denial
we both know its better if we just let it go

everytime i try to make a stand at all
i see your face again and i fall
in the middle of the night theres a scent of a rose
the smell of your perfume i suppose
but we cant change the way we feel inside
and every try at love never turns out right
we both know its better if we just let it go

so lets have
one last kiss
one last touch
one last tender moment between us
one last dance
to our first song
while pretending theres nothin wrong
lets lay here for a while and cherish every moment we're in denial
we both know its better if we just let it go

maybe if we met each other under a different sky
maybe then things would be much better between you and i
(we could hold)
we can always hold on to this one special thing we share
but it would be to much for us to bare

so lets have
one last kiss
one last touch
one last tender moment between us
one last dance
to our first song
while pretending theres nothin wrong
lets lay here for a while and cherish every moment we're in denial
we both know its better if we just let it go
let it go let it go

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
