Black Diamonds Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All those moments we shared
When I thought it's forever that way
If only I had, had one more chance to say
How thankful I am
And that I miss you day after day
Whatever will be will be anyway
There's sun after rain, even if I'm gone one day
I promise we'll meet again anywhere, anytime
Ain't it absurd, that we don't take the time
For whatever means most
means most in our lives
Suddenly you're gone, and there's a hole inside
And I bitterly regret
I didn't realize how fast time flies
You used to say, keep your head high boy
Whatever will be will be anyway
There's sun after rain, even if I'm gone one day
I promise we'll meet again anywhere, anytime
It's hard to look back, it's hard to accept
Had my priorities somewhere else
Now it's hard to go on, it's hard to stay strong
Without you
You used to say, keep your head high boy
Whatever will be will be anyway
There's sun after rain, even if I'm gone one day
I promise we'll meet again anywhere, anytime
The lyrics to "Anytime" by Black Diamonds reflect the regret and longing felt by someone who's lost a loved one. The song speaks to the idea that time is fleeting and that we often take for granted the moments we share with those we care about most. The singer expresses remorse for not having appreciated those moments when they had the chance, and for not having said goodbye properly when their loved one was still alive.
The central motif of the song is the idea of time and its passage. The singer is consumed by a sense of loss and the feeling that there was much left unsaid before their loved one passed away. The lyrics also speak to the power of memory and the way that it can keep us connected to those we've lost. The promise of meeting again "anywhere, anytime" suggests that love has the power to transcend time and space.
Overall, "Anytime" is a powerful and emotional song that speaks to the universal experience of loss and regret. It reminds us to cherish the moments we have with the people we love and to never take them for granted.
