Natalia Zukerman – Sweet Time Lyrics 16 years ago
This song is heartbreaking. It's a very sad song about letting the one you love go. though "I have been taking my sweet time," it has been inevitable, and now is the time to let go of her love. She still loves her partner, but she knows it's time to go. It's the right thing to do, even if you know they're going to be the one that got away.......

Damien Rice – Sleep Don't Weep Lyrics 17 years ago
These people have been through a lot together. He still loves her so much, but knows he must let her go. She must explore other things, herself, other people, the world around her, before she is truly happy, and he understands that. He loves her so much and is so supportive of her needs. She was unhappy in the relationship, and probably sad to leave it. He also struggled with sadness and grief, but he has finally found his place, and he is able to forgive and accept.

This song is definitely about forgiving and accepting what has happened/is happening. It is incredibly symbolic that it is at the end of the album, too, because acceptance is the final stage in recovery of a huge loss such as this relationship.

Ani DiFranco – The Arrivals Gate Lyrics 17 years ago
I think she's lonely, and living vicariously through the joyful people she sees at the arrivals gate.

And there's a little riff from "Angry Anymore" I think the arrivals gate is part of her healing process, therapy for her lonliness, to see others so happy.

Ani DiFranco – Carry You Around Lyrics 17 years ago
A relationship has definitely ended. This song expresses the recovery process. Imagine life on the other side of those emotions, of this whole process, will everything be ok? It's so fucking lonely, but you will always be with me. I carry you around.
