Where Do We Go From Here
The Temper Trap Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll look at yours today
It's been a while, the dust has long set in
You still look the same
So, where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Years have gone and time has healed
You words were casual but longing for
For me or someone else
What could have driven you to think of all
I let go with much tears
So, where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
How do I know what's real?
Where do we go from here?
Years have gone and time has healed
Tell me now, just how to feel
Where do we go when all the roads are under
Where do we go, so many chances pass us by
Where do we go, what now when I am married, oh
But don't go, how can I let you in
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from,
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from,
Where do we go from here?

The Blunt Truth's Haymaker
Always reminds me of a woman I've known since we were kids. We grew up as best friends, were in other relationships but we kept going back to each other for comfort. We always had a sexual relationship, even in our teenage yrs, but it was more than just sex. We were best friends. We were soul mates. A few years ago we had a major falling out and haven't spoken since. I'm now married, love my wife, but this song always reminds me of this person I knew for so long. I still think of her often. Sometimes when I hear this song I close my eyes and visualise meeting her again. I believe it's just closure I need as I love my wife dearly and I'm not a paramour, but my soul still feels unsettled.

You should find her and close gestalt
