Story Behind The Song

Reflections. She left him for the guy with the big bucks. They both continue to look back at what couldÃ?Â?ve been and wonder if theyÃ?Â?ll ever be able, or willing to let go of those memories. Their survival may depend on it.

Song Description

Reflections on a lost love

Lyrics

There's a fog rolling in like an old Chainey film, and the streetlights resemble the eyes to your soul. With their dull dying lights punching holes in the night, (it's) just a momentary comfort from the darkness. And the clarity comes, as the clarity goes. It's one step up and then back you go. How you ever gonna make it to the morning? And it keeps you wanting to look at me look around. Look at you settle down. Take the love that I gave and liberate it. Run from me; me from you. The very same point of view. Ain't no need anymore to complicate it. Save yourself. Save yourself.

And all the things we told ourselves, and all the while I believed, that I could be your shelter from the storm. But you have taught me very well that it takes a little more these days, and I can't pay the price to keep you warm. No, I just can't afford to keep you warm; to keep you warm.

There's a storm rolling in, feel it pull from within. Hear the thunder roll on like the years gone by. And when you've heard that sound, you know it's already gone; just the never-ending silence of a memory. And the clarity comes, as the clarity goes. It's one step up and then back you go. How you ever gonna make it to the morning? And it keeps you wanting to look at me look around. Look at you settle down. Take the love that I gave and liberate it. Run from me; me from you. The very same point of view. Ain't no need anymore to complicate it. Save yourself. Save yourself.
