(Larson/Sunding/McCluskey)
Here I am on trains of solace
The moment I could win
Oh it's so dumb that I'm intrigued by the thunder
and the lightning comes streaming into our home
but oh a summer of our own
it's been done
and oh I'm so proud of loving, again
It's been done
Wishing I was yours forever
Can we rely on love?
I was lost, cut underneath by another
and the feeling that crept into our home
but oh a winter of our own
it's been done
it's been done
and oh I'm so proud of living, again
crossing your heart and hope to die
the skin I'm touching will never lie
crossing your heart and hope to die
the skin I'm touching will never lie
And oh a winter of our own
it's been done
it's been done
and oh I'm so proud of loving again
crossing your heart and hope to die
the skin I'm touching will never lie
crossing your heart and hope to die
the skin I'm touching will never lie
The lyrics to "It's Been Done" by McCluskey Angela explore the theme of love and how it may have been done before, but the singer still feels proud of loving again. The first verse talks about the singer being on "trains of solace," perhaps indicating a journey towards emotional healing or just a state of inner peace. They express feeling dumb for being intrigued by the thunder, perhaps suggesting that their love interest is exciting, unpredictable, or even dangerous. Despite this, the lightning (which often signifies sudden illumination or insight) comes streaming into their home, which could represent their relationship.
The chorus repeats the line "it's been done" twice, perhaps indicating that love has been experienced before and isn't anything new. However, the singer still feels proud of loving again, perhaps implying that they have overcome past heartbreak or failed relationships. The second verse shifts to winter, a harsher season than summer, which could represent a difficult time for the relationship. The singer wishes to be with their love interest forever but wonders if they can rely on love. They confess to feeling lost and cut underneath by another, perhaps referring to a previous partner, but then find a feeling that has crept into their home, which could be love.
The bridge or the third verse sees the repetition of the line "crossing your heart and hope to die" twice. It could imply a promise or a vow taken between the lovers as they touch each other's skin. The song then finishes by repeating the winter of their own is done, and they are proud of loving again. The song's theme is about love being difficult and sometimes failing, but it's worth it to try again and be proud of the love shared.

Here I am on trains of solace
I am finding comfort in solitude
The moment I could win
When I had my chance to succeed
Oh it's so dumb that I'm intrigued by the thunder
I know it's irrational to be fascinated by danger
And the lightning comes streaming into our home
But the excitement is still electric and fills our space
But oh a summer of our own, it's been done
I've experienced a happy summer before, it's not new
And oh I'm so proud of loving, again
But I'm still proud to love despite past hurt and failure
Wishing I was yours forever
Yearning for a long-lasting connection with someone
Can we rely on love?
Questioning whether love is enough to sustain a relationship
I was lost, cut underneath by another
I was hurt and affected deeply by someone else's actions
And the feeling that crept into our home
The negative emotions affected our relationship as well
Crossing your heart and hope to die, the skin I'm touching will never lie
Making a promise of honesty and transparency in the relationship
And oh a winter of our own, it's been done
I've gone through tough times with someone before
And oh I'm so proud of living, again
But I'm still proud to live and love despite past struggles
Crossing your heart and hope to die, the skin I'm touching will never lie
Reiterating the earlier promise of truth and trust
