Are You Gone?
Cranes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

are you gone
did you just fly away
the sun is gone away
and I can't seem to find my way

are you gone
just like in dreams you said
and dreams should never die
and I just want to hide away

are you gone
did you just fly away
the sun is gone away
and I can't seem to find my way

are you gone
just like in dreams you said
and dreams should never die
and I just want to hide away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Are You Gone?" by Cranes are simple yet powerful, expressing the feeling of loss and confusion that comes after someone has left. The repetition of the phrase "are you gone" emphasizes the singer's disbelief that this person could have really left them. They ask if this person has simply flown away, like a bird, as the sun has also disappeared and they feel lost without them.


The second half of each verse reflects on something that was said or promised in the past. The line "just like in dreams you said" suggests that this person made promises or gave hope that now seem like a dream or a fantasy. The singer mentions that dreams should never die, perhaps implying that they are holding onto the hope that this person will return.


The final line, "and I just want to hide away," reveals the depth of the singer's pain and desire to escape from their reality. The repetition of the chorus underscores the feeling of being stuck or trapped in a moment of loss and confusion.


Overall, "Are You Gone?" is a poignant reflection on loss and the struggle to find meaning and hope in the aftermath of someone leaving.

So heartbreaking and such beauty. The singer is similar to Harriet Wheeler of The Sundays.
