My Romance...
God Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

From the darkness of the cloudless sky
From the light of the gloomy heaven
In the lasting ... within me!
From the purling of the flowing waters
In the purling of the flowing waters,
From the sigh of the falling leaves
In the sigh of the falling leaves,
From the tears of the weeping willow
In the tears of the weeping willow,
From the song of the rooming birds
In the song of the rooming birds,
From the hearts of the angelical choir
In the hearts of the angelical choir,
From the soul of the wondering mortal
In the soul of the wondering mortal,
My pain ... is my romance
My romance ... is my life
Oh darling dance with me
And forget my identity
Oh darling you hurt me
And why did you leave me?
My crying ... is my romance
My romance ... is my soul
Oh darling come back to me
And let's live an eternity




Oh darling why did you fly in the skies
And why you make me cry?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of God's song "My Romance" are a poignant expression of the pain that comes with love and the ongoing struggle to come to terms with loss. The opening lines juxtapose light and dark, and the singer goes on to describe the sources of their pain as various elements of nature, including flowing water, falling leaves, and weeping willows. The song then moves on to describe the beauty of the world - the songs of birds and the voices of angels - before returning to the theme of love and loss.


The phrase "my pain is my romance, my romance is my life" is a powerful one, suggesting that the singer's love and pain are so intertwined that they have become indistinguishable. The appeal to the beloved to dance and forget identity is a poignant one, pointing to the ultimate transcendence of love that allows one to lose oneself in the beloved. The subsequent lines express the singer's confusion and hurt at the loss of the beloved, ending on a note of sorrow and longing that is echoed throughout the song.
