Gone With The Wind
The Tuesdays Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I've got these photographs
I take them out some nights
So I can remember how we laughed
And when I see your face
I can almost feel you here
I've got to catch myself
spell of souvenirs
Damn these photographs
They go on pretending
That you and I ended up
with a happy ending
They give me the same feeling
The very same feeling I get when
I'm watching
"Gone With The Wind"
Afraid of opening my deepest
thoughts to you
I hid them in a jar and
pushed away your love
I wonder if you knew
Oh, I would give anything if I
could slip inside
These photographs and be holding you tonight
The Tuesday's song "Gone With The Wind" is a melancholic reflection of a romantic relationship that has ended, focusing on the singer's use of photographs as a means of holding onto the memories he shared with his lover. The lyrics convey the idea of the past being a painful and yet seductive force that continues to haunt the present. The lyrics speak to the feelings of the singer, who may be seen as crazy by some, but who holds onto the photographs as a way to keep his lover alive in his thoughts. The song captures the willingness of the singer to confront and process the pain of the past, to remember and to hold onto what once was.
The lines "Damn these photographs, They go on pretending, That you and I ended up with a happy ending" express the complexity of the situation as the photographs present a distorted reality. They depict a story of love that ended with a happy ending, but in reality, things turned out differently. The photographs seem to offer a sense of comfort, but in reality, they keep the singer stuck in the past. The lyric "Afraid of opening my deepest thoughts to you, I hid them in a jar and pushed away your love, I wonder if you knew" talks about the fear of being vulnerable and the distance that it creates in a relationship. The singer pushed his lover away, hiding his deepest thoughts and now wonders whether his lover knew, and it has become a point of regret for him.

Train roll on
On down the line, won't you
Please take me far away
Now I feel the wind blow
Outside my door, means I'm
I'm leaving my woman at home, Lordy
Tuesday's gone with the wind
Oh, my baby's gone, with the wind
And I don't know
Oh, where I'm going
I just want to be left alone
Well, when this train ends
I'll try again, oh but I'm
I'm leaving my woman at home, Lordy
Tuesday's gone, with the wind
Tuesday's gone, with the wind
Tuesday's gone, with the wind
My baby's gone, with the wind
Train roll on
Tuesday's gone
The train roll on
A many miles from my home, see I'm
I'm riding my blues away, yeah
Well Tuesday, you see
Oh, she had to be free, Lord but
Somehow I got to carry on, Lordy
Tuesday's gone, with the wind
Tuesday's gone, with the wind
Tuesday's gone, with the wind, oh
My baby's gone, with the wind
Train, roll on, ooh
'Cause my baby's gone
I'm riding my blues babe
Trying to ride my blues
Ride on train
Ride on train
Ride my blues, babe
Come back to me, babe
Come back to me, oh, train

Not really but I did hook up with a girl and she asked if I could come back every Tuesday. I lost her number and when I went back there was people cleaning her house and I asked where she was and they told me to get the hell out of there.
I've gone back a couple times and now there's someone else living there.
She was smoking hot, but kind of sketchy and I like to tell myself that I just dodged a bullet.
Maybe you did too?
