C.P.A. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
since i've seen the light
i felt like i was doing you wrong
if i put up a fight
now i can see how you've gone and moved on
you do it every night
when i saw sherry there shuffling along
i knew the time was right
i know you knew
it was all about you
but it's sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
we spend too much time in our lives
just watching flowers die
all the back pedal double talk jive
to cover up our lies
so when sherry said for me to be strong
i'm giving it a try
sure beats fighting whose right and whose wrong
while our worlds pass by
i know you knew
it was all about you
but it's sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now (sherry now)
sherry now
In "Sherry" by C.P.A., the lyrics express a sense of longing and regret for a lost love. The singer acknowledges that it has been a long time since they have felt any happiness or seen any light in their life. They feel guilty for not fighting for the relationship, as they believed it was their fault. However, they now realize that their former partner has moved on and found happiness with someone else, symbolized by the character of Sherry. The mention of Sherry "shuffling along" suggests that she is content and moving forward, while the singer is stuck in the past.
The lyrics also touch upon the idea of wasting time in life and covering up lies through empty words and double talk. The singer acknowledges that they have spent too much time watching things decay and avoiding confrontation. However, when Sherry advises them to be strong, they decide to give it a try and let go of the constant arguments and the need to prove who is right or wrong. They realize that it is better to focus on their own growth rather than getting caught up in a cycle of negativity.
Overall, "Sherry" portrays a sense of introspection and acceptance of the past. The narrative demonstrates the importance of moving on and finding strength within oneself instead of clinging onto lost love or dwelling in bitterness.

Lizcary Reyes is going well for you? How' are the classes ?
@Silmeria0724
Celeste Carmona They're challenging (in a good way) and require a good amount of study time. Accounting is the kind of field that unless you practice what you learned, you'll forget. But they're awesome. I love it. :)
