Long Farewell
Thalion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Lyrics and music by Rodrigo Vinhas]

I've lived a love forbidden
An tried to realize me
I will return to the sea
To the way of stars

Now I live another life
Away from my enemies
All my pride keeps alive
In a world without fear

Looking at two eagles fly
Drawing the sky
A broken heart

If the spell of this long farewell
Could bring back my childhood dreams
Like an angel that fell from the sky
Did you just find my
For (a) long farewell?

Find the means to paradise
A place among harmony




Leave your wishes far behind
So I hide all my tears

Overall Meaning

"Long Farewell" by Thalion is a song about forbidden love and the feeling of returning to one's true self. The song is an expression of how the singer has lived a life of love that was forbidden, and as a result, had to hide their true self. The lyrics suggest that this has caused great pain, hence the metaphorical image of a "broken heart." The singer wishes to return to their true self, which is represented by the sea and the stars. The sea may symbolize the vastness of the world and the infinity of possibilities, whereas the stars may represent the light that guides them towards their true self.


The lyrics indicate that the singer now lives a life away from their enemies, free from any fear. This new life has given them an opportunity to keep their pride alive. However, this new life comes with its own set of challenges, and the singer still carries the burden of heartbreak that has affected them deeply. They look at two eagles flying in the sky, a symbol of freedom and power, yet the pain is still present.


The chorus has a hopeful note, suggesting that the long farewell could bring back the singer's childhood dreams. The reference to the angel that fell from the sky may represent the singer's inner self, which they hope to rediscover during this time of transition. The lyrics suggest that this farewell is long and painful, but the way to the paradise is through harmony, and the singer can only get there by leaving their wishes far behind. The song ends with the singer hiding their tears, indicating that the struggle is ongoing.
