Longing For Lullabies Lyrics

Someday, as I look at the sun
I think of you
And traces we leave behind
Like a fallen piece we’ll make a better start
But still end up alone
Looking down upon a place inside our heart
Dividing us in two
Somewhere, all that we leave behind
Lingers on, longing for lullabies
You live, you learn
You love, you burn
You win, you lose
Becoming you

Someday, when I cry in the rain
I think of you
Looking through eyes of pain
Passing on a feeling that we can’t deny
Over on to you
Fading memory is soon becoming blind
Dividing us in two
Somewhere
All that we leave behind
Lingers on
Longin for lullabies
You live, you learn
You love, you burn
You win, you lose
Becoming you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Love this track! Seems to be about moving on from a past relationship, feeling sad when recalling the memories but not regretting it as it made you who you are...just my interpretation anyways! :P

Cant believe there was only 1 other post! This song is amazing, so chilled out n mellow. The lyrics are hard to interpret, but the video sorta speaks for the lyrics, i think tht his girlfriend may have died, and he misses her, but she wants him to move on, so she sorta helps him. The video fits beautifully with the song and lyrics, stunning :)

I agree RyanRemix, at the end she looks happy for him but sad, and when she throws his hand and the paper is flying around she looks sad at what shes done, but knowing its best for him.

agree about the meaning of the song. if there was something i didn't understand at first, the video explained it all.

its about a girl who loves someone, and that love is starting to hurt them in some way (ie. she's dead and they can't really be together completely), and so she realizes she loves him so mucho to keep hurting him. The memory of her is not letting him move on and continue living his life, he's trapped on the memory of her. Although she still wants to be with him, she finds it kind of selfish and decides to let him go, so that at least he can be happy.

i really liked the expression of the girl at the end of the video. she nearly makes me cry

can't stop listening to the song!
