My Neighborhood
Rodney Dangerfield Lyrics
Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like Gods Of The Sun
For My Fallen Angel
As I draw up my breath
And silver fills my eyes
I kiss her still
For she will never rise
Lays her dying hand
Through those meadows of Heaven
Where we ran
Like a thief in the night
The wind blows so light
It wars with my tears
That won't dry for many years
"Loves golden arrow
At her should have fled
and not Deaths ebon dart
To strike her dead."
My Dying Bride
I'm mourning the death of someone I loved.
Like Gods Of The Sun
I'm comparing my love to the sun gods of mythology.
For My Fallen Angel
I'm dedicating this song to my deceased lover.
As I draw up my breath
I'm struggling to breathe due to my grief.
And silver fills my eyes
Tears are streaming down my face.
I kiss her still
I'm saying goodbye with a final kiss.
For she will never rise
My loved one will never come back to life.
On my weak body
I feel physically and emotionally drained.
Lays her dying hand
I'm holding the hand of my deceased love.
Through those meadows of Heaven
I'm imagining a peaceful afterlife for my loved one.
Where we ran
I'm remembering happy times we shared together.
Like a thief in the night
Death came unexpectedly and stole my loved one away.
The wind blows so light
The world keeps turning, even though I'm heartbroken.
It wars with my tears
I try to keep it together, but my emotions are overwhelming.
That won't dry for many years
I'll be grieving for a long time to come.
"Loves golden arrow
At her should have fled
and not Deaths ebon dart
To strike her dead."
I wish my loved one had died from love, not death. Death feels like a cruel fate.
