Forever Ago

Woodlock's song 'Forever Ago' is a poignant exploration of love, separation, and the strength that grows from enduring these challenges. The lyrics convey a deep emotional connection between two individuals who are physically apart but spiritually intertwined. The repeated plea, 'Don’t go changing,' underscores the fear of losing the essence of the person they love, highlighting the importance of constancy in their relationship.

The song delves into the bittersweet reality of long-distance love. The lines 'My love for you grows stronger when we are apart' and 'It’s hard, I know, it don’t feel right when we are apart' reflect the paradox of separation: while it brings pain, it also fortifies their bond. This duality is a central theme, suggesting that true love can withstand and even thrive under the strain of distance. The imagery of traveling the seas symbolizes the physical journey and the emotional voyage they both undertake.

Moreover, 'Forever Ago' touches on the hope and future aspirations of building a family together, despite the current separation. The lyrics 'We can build our own family, one day we will' offer a glimpse of optimism and a shared vision for the future. The repeated expressions of missing and kissing signify the longing and the cherished moments of reunion, emphasizing the enduring nature of their love. The song beautifully captures the essence of waiting and the unwavering faith that love will prevail, no matter the distance or time apart.
