Monday Morning
Amadeus Awad Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last time I saw you,
there was no smile on your face,
there was none on mine either,
and no one knew it was meant to be a
last goodbye...
I pulled over few minutes later,
face in my hands,
palms full of tears
and started talking to everything around me...
What if I weren't here?
What if we never met?
What if you weren't the woman you are?
What if it was me who died in that explosion and not my brother?
Would my mother have cried more? Less?
Would it make any difference to you




if you never knew the very details of my face?
My palms are never dry.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Monday Morning" by Amadeus Awad are filled with emotion and reflection. The opening lines describe a previous encounter with someone where there was a noticeable absence of happiness on both of their faces. The singer then reflects on the possibility that it could have been their last goodbye. The sadness and regret are felt through the somber lyrics and the idea that life is fleeting and unpredictable.


As the lyrics continue, the singer wonders about the impact of their existence on others. The powerful lines "What if I weren't here? What if we never met?" showcase the singer's realization that their presence in someone's life can make a huge difference. They also question whether it matters if someone knows the details of their face or not. These thoughts evoke a deep sense of introspection and self-inquiry.


The recurring line "My palms are never dry" adds to the emotional weight of the song. It could be interpreted as a physical manifestation of the singer's emotional turmoil, a symbol of the tears they cry that never seem to end. The song ultimately leaves the listener with a sense of contemplation, urging them to reflect on the value of life and the importance of those we hold dear.

there was no smile on your face,
You did not have a cheerful face,

We did not know it then, but it was going to be our final farewell.


I pulled over few minutes later,
After driving for a while, I stopped by the side of the road,


face in my hands, palms full of tears
I was crying so hard that my face was in my hands and my palms were wet with my tears.


and started talking to everything around me...
I began expressing my feelings to inanimate objects surrounding me.


What if I weren't here?
What if I were not alive?

My palms are never dry.
I am always emotional and ready to cry.
