Gone Without a Reason
Maywood Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse
You walked me home after school.
You carried my bag and my jacket.
Most of the children just envied my friend.
They were so jealous of me at the end.
Maybe we lived in a dream.
Maybe we were only children.
Now that I'm older and now that you're gone,
I still don't know what went wrong.

Chorus
My love (my love), for you (for you)
will never die, that's true.
Somehow I feel that I lost a friend.
Can I accept it? Maybe I can't.
Gone without a reason, like the wind.

Verse
I will remember your smile.
I will remember the morning.
Thunder and lightning came out of the sky.
I was so scared that I felt I could die.
You held me close in your arms.
Finally we were together.




Now that I'm older and now that you're gone,
I still don't know what went wrong.

Overall Meaning

The song "Gone Without a Reason" by Maywood is a heart-wrenching ballad that tells the story of a relationship that ended without a clear explanation. In the first verse, the singer reminisces about their childhood, when their partner walked them home from school and carried their bag and jacket. While other children were envious of their relationship, the singer realizes now that they may have been living in a dream or a childish fantasy. The second verse depicts a stormy morning when the singer was frightened by thunder and lightning, but comforted by their partner's embrace. Despite the happy memories, the relationship ended without warning or explanation.


The chorus expresses the singer's enduring love for their partner, but also acknowledges the pain of losing a friend. The line "gone without a reason, like the wind" suggests that the breakup was sudden and unexpected, like a gust of wind that comes out of nowhere. The singer questions whether they can accept the loss, but ultimately seems resigned to the fact that they may never know what went wrong.


Overall, "Gone Without a Reason" is a poignant reflection on the complexity of relationships and the difficulty of accepting their endings. The song's gentle melody and emotional lyrics make it a classic representation of '80s soft rock.

Ты провожал меня домой после школы,
Ты нес мой портфель и куртку.
Большинство детей завидовало, мой друг.
Они очень ревновали меня в конце.

Может, мы жили во сне.
Может, мы были только детьми.
Теперь, когда я стала старше; теперь, когда ты ушел,
Я по-прежнему не знаю, что пошло не так.

Моя любовь (моя любовь) к тебе (к тебе)
Никогда не умрет, это правда.
Я чувствую, что потеряла друга.
Могла ли я ожидать этого? Возможно, не могла.
Ушел без причины, как ветер.

Я буду вспоминать твою улыбку.
Я буду вспоминать то утро,
Гром и молнию с небес.
Я была так напугана, что, казалось, умру.

Ты держал меня в своих объятиях.
Наконец-то мы были вместе.
Теперь, когда я стала старше; теперь, когда ты ушел,
Я по-прежнему не знаю, что пошло не так.

Моя любовь (моя любовь) к тебе (к тебе)
Никогда не умрет, это правда.
Я чувствую, что потеряла друга.
Могла ли я ожидать этого? Возможно, не могла.
Ушел без причины, как ветер.
