Maisie Peters eloquently captures the emotional journey of moving on from a past relationship, weaving together themes of self-discovery and renewal. The protagonist finds herself back in London, engaging in everyday activities that signify both normalcy and personal growth. She reflects on the toxic nature of her previous love, likening it to something "covered in snow" and "eating [her] whole," ultimately concluding that letting go was essential for her well-being. Through vivid imagery—such as sunflowers, red wine, and black cats—the lyrics illustrate her transition from heartbreak to healing. The song underscores the importance of reclaiming one's life and embracing new beginnings, symbolized by phrases like "a blank page" and "the universe is shifting." In essence, Peters' narrative serves as an empowering testament to the resilience required to move past emotional turmoil and find solace within oneself.
There It Goes
Lyrics
I'm back in London
I'm running down Columbia Road
They're selling sunflowers cheap
I'm reading novels
I'm dating but just dating for sport
I'm getting coffees for free
I hang all my art
And I dance with the coven
As the rain falls hard on the street
And I, I'm doing better
I made it to September
I can finally breathe
I thought I gave you the best of me but
The love we had was covered in snow
I had to let it go
Yeah, the love we had was eating me whole
I had to send it home
Oh, there it was, Heaven knows
There it was, now there it goes
I feel it changing
I'm young but I am aging and I
Need you less than I did
I threw a party
He kissed me right in front of my friends
I felt so far from the cliffs
I sleep through the night
And I go where I'm wanted
And I don't need your light to be lit
But oh, the way I loved you
I will not be embarrassed of that
Just should've known when to quit
Now I'm over the worst of it 'cause
The love we had was covered in snow
I had to let it go
Yeah, the love we had was eating me whole
I had to send it home
Oh, there it was (there it was)
Heaven knows (Heaven knows)
There it was (there it was)
Now there it goes (the love we had)
Oh, there it goes (the love we had)
Oh, there it goes (the love we had)
Oh, there it goes (the love we had)
A new home, a swan dive
A blank page, a rewrite
A black cat in the streetlights
An open door
The comedown of closure
The girls and I do yoga
I wake up and it's October
The loss is yours
Brick lane in the brisk cold
And red wine on his hip bone
The witching hours of Stockholm that you won't see
Sunflowers in the kitchen
No heartbreak in remission
The universe is shifting
And it's all for me, all for me
The love we had was covered in snow
I had to let it go
Yeah, the love we had was eating me whole
I had to send it home (I had to send it home)
Oh, there it was (there it was)
Heaven knows (Heaven knows)
There it was (there it was)
Now there it goes (there it goes)
(There it goes, there it goes, there it goes)
