No Ordinary Morning -
Chicane

|
If there was nothing
that I could say
Turned your back and you just walked away
Leaves me numb inside I think of you
Together is all I knew
We moved too fast but I had no sign
I would try to turn the hands of time
Then look to you for the reason why
The love we had passed me by
And as the sun would set you would rise
Fall from the sky into paradise
Is there no light in your heart for me?
You've closed your eyes, you no longer see
There were no lies between me and you
You said nothing of what you knew
But there was still something in your eyes
Left me helpless and paralyzed
You could give a million reasons,
change the world and change the times,
Could not give me the secrets of your heart
and of your mind
In the darkness that surrounds me now
there is no peace of mind
Your careless words undo me,
leave the thought of us behind
You could give a million reasons,
change the world and change the times
Could not give me the secrets of your heart
and of your mind
In the darkness that surrounds me now
there is no peace of mind
Your careless words undo me,
leave the thought of us behind

What it Means to
Me: This is one of the most beautiful, haunting songs
in my collection. Melodic trance.
The feeling is of disbelief
that the relationship ended, without warning. She is still
"there". The lines, "I would try to turn the hands of time/Then look to you for the reason why/The love we had passed me by"
suggests that she is so accustomed to turning to her lover,
and the sad irony that she can't do so. Here, there is utter
disbelief not only in the face of the loss of the
relationship, but that her lover did not share that troubles
were brewing before it was too late. Somehow, and at some
time, her lover fell out of love with her, and there are no
answers. She was shut out. The song is beautiful.
