This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
There's a little black, dark scar, tired divide
This is it, can you hear me?
Have you ever felt a sad heart buried alive?
You can do almost anything
There's a little red bridge with the view of the sun with a lake
I recommend such a setting site
And the thousands of stars come out thousands of times
And we can go, only if you believe
Only if you believe
Do you feel like you've lost everything you can lose?
This is it, can you hear me?
When you cry do your fears ever chill up the room?
Calling out in a moment of need
Do you ever lay awake with a look in the eye?
Asking god if a wish is too big to deny?
I will offer a line and it is ready for use
Let me know are you ready for me?
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time
When the storm brings rain, snow, fate of all kinds
You can feel almost anything
When the day seems to melt, fall flat into night
You can feel almost anything
When you can't go on, you got to get up and try
This is it, can you feel me?
And when the bombs come down, we will make it alive
But only if you want to believe
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time
(Out of time)
When I dream
When I dream
I feel your heart
When I dream
I'm out of time (I feel your heart)
When I dream
I'm out of time
I feel your heart
I feel your heart
I feel your heart
I feel your heart
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time
This is it, can you hear me?
Have you ever felt a sad heart buried alive?
You can do almost anything
There's a little red bridge with the view of the sun with a lake
I recommend such a setting site
And the thousands of stars come out thousands of times
And we can go, only if you believe
Only if you believe
Do you feel like you've lost everything you can lose?
This is it, can you hear me?
When you cry do your fears ever chill up the room?
Calling out in a moment of need
Do you ever lay awake with a look in the eye?
Asking god if a wish is too big to deny?
I will offer a line and it is ready for use
Let me know are you ready for me?
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time
When the storm brings rain, snow, fate of all kinds
You can feel almost anything
When the day seems to melt, fall flat into night
You can feel almost anything
When you can't go on, you got to get up and try
This is it, can you feel me?
And when the bombs come down, we will make it alive
But only if you want to believe
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time
(Out of time)
When I dream
When I dream
I feel your heart
When I dream
I'm out of time (I feel your heart)
When I dream
I'm out of time
I feel your heart
I feel your heart
I feel your heart
I feel your heart
I'd like to say, that you're my only fear
And when I dream, it slowly disappears
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time

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
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."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

There's a little black dark scar tire divide This is it, can you hear me? Have you ever felt a shattered heart buried alive? You can do almost anything There's a little black bridge with the view of the sun with a lake Recommends such a settling sight And the thousands of stars come out thousands of times We can go, only if you believe.
Only if you believe.
Do you feel like you've lost everything you can lose? This is it, can you hear me? When you cry do your tears [ever] reach out [of] the room Calling out every moment of need? Do you ever lay awake with the look in the eyes of God? If a wish is too big to deny I will offer a line, and it's ready for use. Let me know, are you ready for me?
I'd like to say that you're my only fear. And when I dream, it slowly disappears. And when I wake, I'm right here by your side. To feel your heart beat in and out of time.
When the storm brings rain, snow, fate of all kinds, You can feel almost anything. When the day seems to melt, fall flat in the night, You can feel almost anything. When you can't get up, you gotta get up and try. This is it, can you feel me? When the bombs come down, you will make it alive. If you only, if you wanna believe.
I'd like to say that you're my only fear. And when I dream, it slowly disappears. And when I wake, I'm right here by your side. To feel your heart beat in and out of time.
