This melancholic ballad navigates the emotional landscape of loss and longing. The narrator grapples with an impending separation, perhaps due to an inevitable departure or an emotional drift. His friends' subdued demeanor and his own uneasy acceptance hint at an inevitable confrontation with reality. Seeking solace, he yearns for a genuine connection, symbolized by a plea for the sharing of trivial personal details. This longing for a bygone state of love or companionship encapsulates his struggle to move forward while clinging to the remnants of what once was. The repetition of waiting signifies a profound hopefulness intertwined with despair. #Longing #EmotionalResonance
What Once Was
Lyrics
I guess I knew this would happen to you
Inside I did, but I refused to know the truth
I'm headin' back inside to sit at home with you
I think I know what's wrong
My friends put on their bravest face
Their tails between their legs, something's out of place
I bet their mothers let them know what I'm about to face
Keep your mouth zipped, son
Baby, I've been there before
I was at the point where all I really wanted was someone
And now I'm still hangin' on
I was at the end of every tether waitin' for what once was
(Ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
Tell me all the important stuff
What's your favorite color, what makes you so tough?
Please don't let go when you've had enough
I'm on my knees
Baby, I've been here before
I was at the point where all I really wanted was someone
And now I'm still hangin' on
I was at the end of every tether waiting for what once was
(Ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh)
Baby, I've been there before
I was at the point where all I really wanted was someone
And now I'm still hangin' on
I was at the end of every tether waiting for what once was
Waitin' for my love
Waitin' for
(Ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh)
