Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you no longer care
The breeze and I are whispering goodbye
To dreams we used to share
Ours was a love song that seemed constant as the moon
Ending in a strange, mournful tune
And all about me, they know you have departed without me
The breeze and I

The breeze and I are saying with a sigh
We, the breeze and I, are expressing our sorrowful feelings
That you no longer care
That you do not have any concern or interest in us anymore
The breeze and I are whispering goodbye
We, the breeze and I, are sharing our farewell message in hushed tones
To dreams we used to share
To the aspirations and desires that we once had in common
Ours was a love song that seemed constant as the moon
Our romantic story was like a ballad that appeared as eternal as the moon
Ending in a strange, mournful tune
However, it has now come to a tragic conclusion that feels unfamiliar and sorrowful
And all about me, they know you have departed without me
Everyone knows that you have left me behind and moved on
And we wonder why, the breeze and I
Both the wind and I question why you decided to leave and abandon our bond
The breeze and I
The artist of the song and the gusts of wind surrounding them, expressing their joint misery and confusion
