Fall Apart
The Mavericks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Till lonesome and weary-sized,
Start keeping them company
As soon as they
begin
To fill up the space
But if there's one thing for certain
They'll fade with age
The Mavericks' song Fall Apart is a melancholic ballad that talks about memories of the past and the uncertainty of their relevance in the present. The opening lines, "In the rear-view, and I has beautiful memories," suggest that the singer is looking back on a time that was once happy and full of life. However, he soon finds himself feeling "lonesome and weary-sized," hinting that he is now in a different place emotionally and perhaps physically.
The lyrics suggest that memories can be both comforting and heartbreaking, as they "start keeping [him] company" but also remind him that time has passed and things have changed. The line "But if there's one thing for certain, they'll fade with age" highlights the fleeting nature of memories and how they can lose their significance over time.

In the rear-view, and I has beautiful memories
Looking back on my past, all I can see are the happy moments.
Till lonesome and weary-sized
But now I feel sad and tired when I think about them.
Start keeping them company
I find comfort in reminiscing about those memories, even though they make me feel lonely.
As soon as they
Once those memories come flooding back, it's hard to shake off the emotions they bring.

The story of you and I has beautiful memories
Till loneliness and weary-seized
Start keeping them company
As soon as they ll gather around
Along comes misery
There we go again, here we go again
So if an old friend of mine comes knocking up on my door
All I can tell him now he s already heard before
It s better to love and lose, than never have planned at all
For sometimes losers are the only ones who win
I d rather fall apart than never know and loving you
For every broken heart, another lover once it comes to near
And never be the home that gets me through eternity
Along with all the memories that belong to you and me
That you are part of me
The game is been played
And I m just shy of a victory
The heartaches have carried on, will be soon history
Let s hope the world is full of losers in the end
I d rather fall apart than never know and loving you
For every broken heart, another lover once comes too near
And never be the home that gets me through eternity
Along with all the memories that belong to you and me
I d rather fall apart than never know and loving you
For every broken heart, another lover once comes too near
And never be the home that gets me through eternity
Along with all the memories that belong to you and me.
