Susan
Mark Knight Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come home....

I can't go back
And I can't move on
I'm lost in a world
Where you belong

And I'm crying now
And I'm reaching out
I want to hold you
Make everything right

(Chorus) x2
Susan, where have you gone?
I don't know what went wrong
But I want you to know
That you're still in my head
After all that's been said
I want you, come home
--

Memories
How they get to me
Time can erase
What you mean to me

And I'm crying now
And I'm reaching out
I want to hold you
Make everything right

(Chorus) x2
Susan, where have you gone?
I don't know what went wrong
But I want you to know
That you're still in my head
After all that's been said
I want you, come home
--

Susan, come home
Susan, come home...

Ooh, there's so much
That we've been through
I'm still waiting here for you
For you

(Chorus) x3
Susan, where have you gone?
I don't know what went wrong
But I want you to know
That you're still in my head
After all that's been said




I want you, come home...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mark Knight's song "Susan" express a painful longing for someone who has left, but who remains deeply missed and significant. The singer of the song is caught between the inability to move on and the inability to go back, trapped in a world from which the person he is searching for has vanished. The lyrics express a sense of despair and abandonment, as well as a fierce desire to reclaim what has been lost. The chorus repeats the cry "Susan, where have you gone?" with increasing urgency, suggesting that the absence is both desperate and unresolved.


The song's theme of loss and longing is reinforced by the imagery of memory and the fleeting nature of time. The memories of the past are vivid and powerful, but they are also fragile and easily lost. The singer is haunted by the memories of the person he has lost, but also by the realization that time is slipping away, making it increasingly difficult to find what he is looking for. The emotional intensity of the lyrics is supported by the simple, powerful melody and the spare arrangement, which allows the vocal performance to shine through.
