Thing Of The Past
Gerhana Skacinta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I left you I thought I'd be fine
Thought I gotten you out of my mind
The time has come and then run past me
But this feeling never leave me alone

How sweet this life can be
between you and me
To give you all the love that I can
Think I'd just go, and ease the pain
And let the memories be...

Thing of the past I speak from my soul my body and mind
Saying I had the love for us can be
How my heart was torn and my soul was crying
I wish I'd have known right from the start

How sweet this life can be
between you and me
To give you all the love that I can
So I will fight to be the best that I can
And let our love will be.

Thing of the past I speak from my soul my body and mind
Saying I had the love for us can be
How my heart was torn and my soul was crying
I wish I'd have known right from the start

How sweet this life can be
between you and me
To give you all the love that I can
So I will fight to be the best that I can
And let our love will be.





Thing of the past

Overall Meaning

I interpret these lyrics as the regret of leaving someone that one truly loved. The singer had thought that leaving the person would be the best decision, that time would help them forget and move on. However, as time passed, the singer realized that they cannot forget and that the love they had for this person still lingers in their heart and mind. There is a deep sorrow and pain within the singer, who wishes that they had known right from the start how much they really loved this person. Despite the heartache, the singer acknowledges the sweetness of life that comes from giving love and affection to another person. Now, they will fight to be the best they can and hope that their love will be rekindled.


These lyrics convey a universal theme of love and loss. It is relatable to anyone who has experienced the pain of a broken heart or regret over a lost love. The lyrics remind us to cherish and appreciate the love we have and to not take it for granted.

Dari zaman sekolah menengah, sampai anak dah sorang 2020 masih lg disini. Fav line up the old ones when didy is still playing guitar, eddy is on the vocals and trumpet, and widy is still young. Saw them once face to face, get the chance to serve bakri looking for a size UK8/9 vans last year. How this band hv grown, and so do I.
