Eternity Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hear the clock ticking on the wall Losing sleep, losing track of the tears I cry Every drop is a waterfall Every breath is a break in the riptide [Pre-Chorus] Oh, how long has it been? I don't know [Chorus] But it feels like an eternity Since I had you here with me Since I had to learn to be Someone you don't know To be with you in paradise What I wouldn't sacrifice Why'd you have to chase the light Somewhere I can't go? [Post-Chorus] As I walk this world alone As I walk this world alone [Verse 2] Another glimpse of what could've been (Ooh) Another dream, another way that it nevеr was Falling back in the wilderness (Ooh) Waking up, rubbing salt in thе cut You might also like Ordinary Alex Warren Wood Taylor Swift Everything Alex Warren [Pre-Chorus] Oh, how long has it been?

[Post-Chorus] As I walk this world alone (Alone, alone) As I walk this world alone (Alone, alone) [Bridge] It's an endless night, it's a starless sky It's a hell that I call home (Hell that I call home) It's a long goodbye on the other side Of the only life I know [Chorus] And it feels like an eternity (Mm) Since I had you here with me Since I had to learn to be (Mm) Someone you don't know (Woah) To be with you in paradise What I wouldn't sacrifice Why'd you have to chase the light Somewhere I can't go? [Outro] As I walk this world alone As I walk this world alone

Meaning of Eternity

The song 'Eternity' by Alex Warren is a melancholic ballad about profound loss and the enduring pain of a broken relationship. The narrator grapples with the feeling that time has stopped since their loved one left, creating an 'eternity' of sadness and regret. He laments opportunities lost, the inability to understand why they drifted apart ('chase the light'), and his current solitary existence. The lyrics convey themes of isolation, yearning for a past paradise, and accepting (though not necessarily embracing) the permanence of the pain.
