"Would You Be Mine" is a poignant and soul-stirring song that reflects on the profound emotions of regret, longing, and the desire to rekindle a lost love. The lyrics narrate a night filled with contemplation as the protagonist reflects on their past, realizing the depth of their feelings and the mistakes that led to their separation.
The repetitive lines, "What you doing, what you doing, and it turns out to be a very lonely night, I went on a night ride, what you doing, what you doing, and I found myself driving to your home," underscore the restlessness and yearning in the protagonist's heart. The spontaneous decision to seek out their lost love speaks to the urgency of the emotions bubbling to the surface.
Throughout the song, the chorus, "o o o o would you forgive me for letting you go, o o o o I know it's late but I have to let you know," becomes a heartfelt plea for forgiveness and a confession of regret for past actions. The protagonist bares their soul, acknowledging the gravity of their mistakes and their deep longing to reconcile and rebuild what was once lost.
The verses beautifully capture the shared experiences of the past relationship, with its ups and downs, highs and lows. The lyrics express appreciation for the smiles shared and the love that once blossomed between the two. The chorus then reiterates the desire for forgiveness and a second chance to make things right.
"Would You Be Mine" is a song that tugs at the heartstrings, invoking a sense of empathy and understanding in the listener. Its raw and vulnerable portrayal of emotions makes it a captivating and relatable piece, inviting listeners to reflect on their own experiences of love and loss.
With its compelling lyrics and evocative melody, "Would You Be Mine" is a song that leaves a lasting impression, urging us to cherish the people we love and reminding us of the importance of humility, forgiveness, and the pursuit of genuine connections that enrich our lives.
lyrics
I was thinking about my life
(what you doing,what you doing)
And it turns out to be a very lonely night
I went on a night ride
(what you doing,what you doing)
And I found my self driving to your home
o o o o would you forgive me for letting you go
o o o o I know its late but I have to let you know
We had some ups and downs
We felt both lows and crowns
but in the end we found some colours in the gray
We’v got some laughs and tears
we felt both bolds and fears
but I always loved how you smiled
I want to ask would you be mine
We had some ups and downs
We felt both lows and crowns
but in the end we found some colours in the gray
We’v got some laughs and tears
we felt both bolds and fears
but I always loved how you smiled
