Carrie Underwood/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Said goodbye, turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone
Faded into the setting sun,
Slipped away
But I wonโt cry
'Cause I know Iโll never be lonely
For you are the stars to me,
I will see you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
'Till I see you again
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I can hear those echoes in the wind at night
Calling me back in time
Back to you
In a place far away
Where the water meets the sky
The thought of it makes me smile
You are my tomorrow
I will see you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
'Till I see you again
Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking
But I stay strong and I hold on 'cause I know
I will see you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, yeah yeah
I will see you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
'Till I see you again
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
'Till I see you again (Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
'Till I see you again yeah yeah yeah whoa
'Till I see you again
Said goodbye turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone.
The lyrics to Carrie Underwoodโs song โSee You Againโ are about loss and finding comfort in the memories of a loved one who has passed away. The opening lines describe saying goodbye to this person, who has โfaded into the setting sunโ and โslipped away,โ leaving the singer feeling alone. However, rather than dwelling on the sadness of the loss, the song offers a message of hope and reassurance. The chorus proclaims that the singer will see their loved one again, and that they will carry the memories of the person with them in the meantime. The second verse describes the singerโs longing to be reunited with their loved one in a place โwhere the water meets the skyโ and recalls the memories of their time together with fondness. The bridge acknowledges the difficulty of the grieving process, but asserts that the singer will remain strong and hold onto the hope of seeing their loved one again.
In addition to being a song about coping with loss, โSee You Againโ has personal significance for Carrie Underwood. She has stated in interviews that the song was inspired by the death of her own cousin in a car accident. Underwood co-wrote the song with two other writers, and it was released as a single in April 2014. The song reached #2 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and earned Underwood a CMT Music Award for Female Video of the Year. The music video for the song features clips of the singer performing the song mixed with shots of military families reuniting, offering a broader message of hope and reunion beyond personal loss. Overall, โSee You Againโ is a heartfelt tribute to the memories of those we have lost, and a reminder that the hope of reunion can provide comfort in times of grief.

I had a dream about a burning house
You were stuck inside
I couldn't get you out
I lay beside you and pulled you close
And the two of us went up in smoke
Love isn't all that it seems
I did you wrong
I'll stay here with you
Until this dream is gone
I've been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Tryna take what's lost and broke
And make it right
I've been sleepwalking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house
I see you at a party and you look the same
I could take you back
But people don't ever change
Wish that we could go back in time
I'd be the one you thought you'd find
Love isn't all that it seems
I did you wrong
I'll stay here with you
'Til this dream is gone
I've been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Tryna take what's lost and broke
And make it right
I've been sleepwalking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house
Flames are getting bigger now
In this burning house
I can hold on to you somehow
In this burning house
Oh, and I don't wanna wake up
In this burning house
And I been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Tryna take what's lost and broke
And make it right
I've been sleep walking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house

My wife thinks Iโm depressed because I like sad songs such as this one. Iโm not depressed, Iโve just been through a lot in my life and these type of songs remind me of certain hard times that I made it through. Thank you Lord for never leaving my side.
@jenniferbaltz3888
Amen.... thank you for sharing
@markbalaam9542
I have felt the same since I was a kid. I kinda think they are a catharsis to me. The melodies lift me up, make me feel.
@saragrueninger3727
jigarzasu sad she canโt see that beauty in you I pray one day she does!
@jigarzasu
Mark Balaam youโre right, sometimes we become numb and forget how to feel, then something as simple as a song can totally remind you that you are in fact human and have more feelings than you ever knew.
@jigarzasu
