One Year Ago
Lene Marlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No one by her side
She manages to fight the tears but
The pain inside
She can't hide
And all the tears she's cried
The moment she closes her eyes she starts
Thinking of you
Have gone away
Will they ever come true?
All she needs is, all she needs is you
And she wishes today
Was one year ago
When you cared so much for her
And loved her so
Not a doubt in her mind that it would still be you
Cause the love that you sharedâ?¦ it was true
You never thought about it,
What you made her feel
You promised you'd stay together,
But the hope she once hadâ?¦ so unreal
All she needs is, all she needs is you
And she wishes today
Was one year ago
When you cared so much for her
And loved her so
Not a doubt in her mind that it would still be you
Cause the love that you sharedâ?¦ it was true
The song "One Year Ago" by Lene Marlin tells the story of a person who is walking alone, struggling to hold back the tears but is unable to conceal the pain inside. As she closes her eyes, she thinks of someone who was close to her heart, someone who she loved deeply but is no longer with her. The dreams she once had about the person have faded away, leaving nothing but an emptiness that she cannot fill. The person she longs for is the one who made her feel complete, and she needs them to return to her life.
As the song progresses, the person expresses her wish that it was one year ago when the love of her life cared for her and loved her with all his heart. She wishes that time could turn back the clock so that she can relive the moments when their love was true and not just a passing feeling. The person left her with unrealized hopes and abandoned promises of forever. The only thing that could make her feel complete again is the return of the love she shared with him.
The lyrics of "One Year Ago" are deeply emotional, expressing the pain of losing someone you love deeply. It is a song that talks about the sacrifice and devotion of love and how people change over time. Lene Marlin's voice beautifully conveys the melancholic and somber tone of the song, making it a powerful ballad that resonates with anyone who has loved and lost.

You promised you'd stay together,
You made a commitment to stay together
But the hope she once hadâ?¦ so unreal
But the optimism she once had is now unattainable

Francesco Dell'Aura
Lei sta camminando lì da sola..
Nessuno al suo fianco..
Riesce a combattere le lacrime..
Ma il dolore dentro,non lo può nascondere,non tutte le sue lacrime.
Nel momento in cui chiude gli occhi...
Inizia a pensare a te...
I sogni che aveva una volta,sono andati via...
Verranno mai veramente?
Tutto ciò di cui ha bisogno
Tutto ciò di cui ha bisogno sei tu(2)
rit. E LO DESIDERA OGGI,
ERA UN ANNO FA
QUANDO TI IMPORTAVA E L'AMAVI COSÌ TANTO
NON UN DUBBIO NELLA SUA MENTE
CHE SARESTI ANCORA TU
PERCHÉ L'AMORE CHE HAI CONDIVISO ERA VERO
Hai mai pensato a come l'hai fatta sentire...
Hai promesso di stare insieme...,
Una volta l'avevi fatto,...
Così irreale...
Ciò di cui ha bisogno
Ciò di cui ha bisogno sei tu(2)...
Rit.
Lei sta camminando lì da sola,nessuno al suo fianco,riesce a combattere le lacrime ,ma il dolore dentro non lo può nascondere,......
Rit.

It's hard to know that you can't be there for someone..someone who needs you..someone who feels like you do. It breaks your heart. But sometimes being away is the best thing you can do for that special someone...
