Everytime You Go Away
J.C. Lodge Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't believe you share my world
But it's real
And every time that I hold you close to me
Forever's all that I can see
How it feels
Don't matter anyway
See I never felt this way before
You leave a brother want more
[Chorus]
I hate to see you go
Even though I know when you're comin' back
It's hard to breathe without you girl
And baby that's a fact
I know sometimes you have to leave
But I wish you could stay
Every time you go away
From the very first time that I touched you babe
Couldn't find the words to say you set me free
And every time that I kiss your lips
Nothin' ever tasted quite like this
Or got so deep
See I don't give a damn what my homies say
Don't matter anyway
See I never ever felt this way before
You always leave me want more
[Chorus]
You're the sunshine of my day
You brighten up my night
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you say goodbye
[Chorus]
In J.C. Lodge's song "Everytime You Go Away," the singer expresses her love and devotion to her significant other. She cannot believe that her partner shares her world, and every time she holds them close, she can only see forever. She does not care about what her friends say or think because she's never felt this way before, and when her partner leaves, she always wishes they could stay. The song portrays the singer's deep emotions for her partner and how much she hates seeing them go, but she knows they will always come back.
The lyrics convey a sense of longing and desire that is communicated through the repeated phrase "every time you go away." The chorus highlights the main emotional thrust of the song, emphasizing how difficult it is for the singer to be without her partner. In addition, the lyrics make use of a lot of sensory and emotional language, emphasizing the way the partner's presence affects her. The song's instrumentation is also essential, with the music becoming more urgent in the chorus, reflecting the singer's feelings of loss.
