Tears From the Moon
Conjure One Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thinking about you and hearing us talking
And all the things I should have said
Echo now, inside my head
It just ain't fair this thing called loving
When one step there and the other feels nothing
I would have done anything for you
I feel something falling from the sky
I'm so sad I made the angels cry
Tears from the moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain
Tears from the moon
Fall down like rain
But tears from the moon
Can´t wash away the pain
Tears from the moon, tears from the moon (whispering a couple times)
It just ain't fair this thing called loving
When one step there and the other feels nothing
I would have done anything for you
I still love you, baby I adore you
All day I keep from falling apart
But at night when the sky gets dark
Tears from the moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain
Stop, Stop haunting me
It should be easy
As easy as when you stopped wanting me
Hmm
The song "Tears from the Moon" by Conjure One is a soulful and emotional ballad about unrequited love. The opening lines describe a sleepless night spent reminiscing about a lost love, and the regretful thoughts that echo through the singer's mind. They are pained by the fact that loving someone can feel so unfair when one person's feelings are not reciprocated. The lyrics convey a sense of helplessness and frustration as the singer expresses their deep love and adoration for the other person while acknowledging that they cannot force them to feel the same way.
The chorus of the song is particularly poignant, with the metaphor of tears falling from the moon emphasizing the sadness and futility of the singer's situation. They reach out for their lost love, but their efforts are in vain, and the tears cannot wash away the pain of rejection. The final lines of the song suggest a longing for closure and the hope that the haunting memories will eventually fade away.
Overall, "Tears from the Moon" is a moving and beautifully crafted song that speaks to the universal experience of unrequited love and the lingering pain of lost relationships.
