I think the song is about a Man telling his Ex that she will never forget him and that he will live "for ages I'm a thousand turns of tides" in his Ex's mind, where he will live forever and the memory of him will turn round and round in her mind.And although he will "always be blamed for the sun going down with a sigh" meaning he will always be blamed for the ending of their relationship ;he is still "the light in the middle of every man's fog" meaning that her future lovers don't matter because she will never forget him. He is light, her true love and every other future lover is just fog. It also means she will look for the love they had and him, "the light", in every relationship she has with other men, "the fog". The line "If I don't get you in the morning, by the evening I sure will" means that if she does not think of him in the morning she will think of him in the evening because he will always be in her thoughts.In the lines "And no I never meant to say these words but yes you ought to know/That the dark in what I've always been, it will not ever go/No it will not ever go" he is saying he didn't want to tell her this but he will always live in the dark recesses of her mind,the memory of him will never go. At the end he once again says he will live a thousand years in in the tide of her mind as he will turn round and round in her mind and she will try a thousand ways to forget him. |

| Feist – Lonely Lonely Lyrics

I believe this song talks about a long distance relationship. Where a girl decides to move to another country leaving her boyfriend “to an empty room”. At first the couple misses one another but with distance the boys heart goes weak and he no longer calls or writes. Making "paper obsolete". The girl thought he would reach out to her. When the song speaks about the heart going weak so that mouth can barely speak it talks about their love going weak and them having nothing to talk about but if they do talk it would be about significant things as the boyfriend hides "his need" to end the relationship because he no longer loves her the same way. They thought their relationship would last. When the song says "By my only things are clear Baby boy I'm staying here Lonely lonely that was you Lonely and so untrue" it speaks about the girl staying where she moved to and all the things the boyfriend said about him loving her was a lie and untrue being as he barely called, wrote, and that his love didn’t withstand distance. The girl thought he would ask her to come back or not to leave but he did not making their love untrue. The girl compares love to seeds. She has read the golden seal on the packet where the seeds are kept . The golden seal tells of how the seeds….meaning love feel and it reminds her of what love can yield. Basically it reminds her of the love they felt and about their relationship which is now over. She is sad now that it is over but it is for the better and that is why the song ends in a happy tune.
