No Regrets
Allan Gary Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's been a long road and a million tears
I'm movin' slow but I'm movin' on
The sweetest memories still remain
The laughter we had and the love that we made
Every night I go to bed alone
With no regrets
Lived so much time in so little time
I'm so glad when she was here
She was mine
From the day we met
To the night she left
I loved her, no regrets
Well time and fate can be controlled
You play the hand that you're dealt
And the dice that you rolled
And who might of questioned God anyway
Well these days when I look back
I know I'm blessed to be loved like that
I still miss her everyday
With no regrets
A piece of mind
Lived so much time in so little time
I'm so glad when she was here she was mine
From the day we met
To the night she left
I loved her, no regrets
From the day we met
To the night she left
I loved her, no regrets
No regrets
I loved her
With no regrets
"Allan Gary's No Regrets" is a melancholy and poignant song that speaks about a man's life after his beloved girlfriend passed away. The song reveals Allan's pain and yearning for his ex-girlfriend whom he loved deeply. It's a moving exposition of how much he misses her and that her memory still lingers on despite the three years that have since passed. The lyrics reflect a sense of appreciation for the time they shared and the bond they had while both seeking the strength to move on with life despite the loss.

The first stanza of the song lays out the foundation about how she has been gone for three years, and Alan is moving slowly but surely towards healing. He then reminisces about the sweetest memories they had together, from the love they shared to the laughter they had. He conveys how he has a void in his life because he goes to bed alone every night. However, Alan is grateful for the time they spent together and doesn't feel any regret over the love's course. He sings of how content he was when she was with him and the love they shared, which now sustain him in her absence.
The second verse has Allan talking about how we can't control time and fate. The reality is we must take the hands that life dealt us and work with them. Despite this reality, no one can question the Creator's decision. Allan talks about being blessed to love and be loved by her, knowing he will never forget her. The song's closing phrase repeats that he loved her with no regrets.
