Giantree Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The more I think about this love, I know, I know
Not allowed to be with you at sunrise
Not allowed to walk with you in the moon light
Speak our faces, no one can see the pain
Speak our faces, no one can see the pain
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, lifes a waterfall
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, just a waterfall
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, just a waterfall
Its sad but just a waterfall
The more you see, the more your fling tilts
The more you see, the more your waking up
There is no doubt you smile in front of me
Do I surprise... love, it sits
Speak our faces, no one can see the pain
Speak our faces, no one can see the pain
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, lifes a waterfall
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, just a waterfall
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, lifes a waterfall
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, just a waterfall
Its sad but just a waterfall x 2
The lyrics of Giantree's song Cascade focus on the complexities of a prohibited love. The repetition of the phrase "The more I think about this love, I know, I know" emphasizes the self-awareness of the singer about the situation he finds himself in. The relationship is not allowed to flourish, and he cannot be with the person he loves at sunrise or walk with her in moonlight. They must keep their pain hidden behind their faces as they cannot reveal their love to the world.
The lyrics offer a questioning of the validity of the love they share by asking, "Are you love in vain?" The sadness of the situation is echoed in the comparison of life to a waterfall - beautiful yet uncontrollable, with an air of inevitability about it. The lines "Do I surprise…love, it sits" hint at a lack of communication or expression of love in the relationship.
Overall, the song's lyrics express a forbidden love that the world cannot see, and the pain that comes with it. It shows how circumstances can make love difficult, yet it still exists, and the message it holds speaks to the heart of many people.

The more I think about this love, I know, I know
As I contemplate this love more deeply, I have become certain of its nature
Not allowed to be with you at sunrise
We cannot be together at the dawn of a new day
Not allowed to walk with you in the moon light
We cannot share a moonlit walk together
Speak our faces, no one can see the pain
We hide our pain behind stoic expressions
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, lifes a waterfall
Are your actions in love futile? Life can be as tumultuous as a waterfall
Offers, are you love in vain, sad but, just a waterfall
Maybe your love is unrequited, but life's difficulties are just the natural flow of things
The more you see, the more your fling tilts
The more you observe, the more your relationship feels unbalanced
There is no doubt you smile in front of me
I can see that you put on a brave face in my presence
Do I surprise... love, it sits
Does my love for you catch you off guard? For it is always present
Its sad but just a waterfall
The difficulties of life are melancholic, but inevitable
