Flowers in the Rain
Flowing Tears & Withered Flowers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel her last embrace on me
The final autumn sun
Drownin? in a sea of golden spawns

Once away but oh so near
Gathered gloomy clouds
Passin? in the sky as golden swans
The morning dew, the fallen leaves
The shorter growin? days
All I've seen, but never from this side

All my dreams that seemed so real
All they passed on by
Sunken in the last october light?

And so I lost it ? again but forever new
The worlds keeps turning - so do I but without you
And I keep dreamin? ? as I did since my dreams began
The swans are passing and the joy ? in the drownin ? sun

The lights of spring, the gloom of fall

All it has been real
All it's left this mourning deep inside

And once again the leaves will dwell
The swans then will return
But will I ever see the present light?

And so I lost it?

Long lost and forgotten you are
Covered by the fallen leaves
The only shelter they bring
To forget? what I'll never reach





And so I lost it?

Line by Line Meaning

I feel her last embrace on me
I am overwhelmed by the memory of her final hug


The final autumn sun
The sun is setting on this chapter of my life


Drownin? in a sea of golden spawns
I am surrounded by reminders of what has passed


Once away but oh so near
She may be gone, but her presence is still felt


Gathered gloomy clouds
The future looks uncertain and foreboding


Passin? in the sky as golden swans
Time is slipping away, like swans in flight


The morning dew, the fallen leaves
Nature reminds me of the cyclical nature of life


The shorter growin? days
The passing of time is marked by the changing seasons


All I've seen, but never from this side
I am experiencing things in a new and unfamiliar way


All my dreams that seemed so real
The things I once imagined have proven to be illusions


All they passed on by
I couldn't hold on to what I thought was real


Sunken in the last october light?
My hopes have faded away as the sun sets on this chapter


And so I lost it? again but forever new
I am experiencing loss, but it feels fresh and new each time


The worlds keeps turning - so do I but without you
Life goes on, but it feels empty without her


And I keep dreamin? ? as I did since my dreams began
I cling to my dreams as a source of hope and comfort


The swans are passing and the joy ? in the drownin ? sun
Even in my sadness, I can still find beauty in the world


The lights of spring, the gloom of fall
Life is a mix of joy and sorrow


All it has been real
Everything I've experienced has been true and meaningful


All it's left this mourning deep inside
My loss has left a lasting sadness within me


And once again the leaves will dwell
The seasons will change and life will move on


The swans then will return
Time will continue to pass and bring new experiences


But will I ever see the present light?
I wonder if I will ever find happiness and contentment in the present moment


Long lost and forgotten you are
She is gone and fading from memory


Covered by the fallen leaves
Her memory is obscured and buried


The only shelter they bring
The memories of her bring a small measure of comfort


To forget? what I'll never reach
I wish I could forget her, but I know I never will


And so I lost it?
I have experienced loss and am struggling to move on

Someone please upload the unreleased live version with Stefani on vocals. It was beautiful. It was uploaded to their website before she left the band

gothicmetalfreak

Wow I never knew that was a thing. I would love to hear that.

DethronerX

@gothicmetalfreak I used to have it, but lost it. Downloaded the official audio from their website in early 2000s. The description said that Stefani had just joined the band. But Im hoping someone else has it, in case I dont find it in my old drives.
