Nina – Steep lyrics
Softly, gently
I will let you down
'Cause I don't love you
In the same way now
I can hold you
But not with lover's arms
'Cause you are more of
A brother to me now
'Cause I can lie next to you
But I can't lie to you

(Chorus)
So walk into the sun and watch me
Run into the rain
For you, the future's easy, so don't weep
For me, it's getting steep...

I loved you for
Exactly who you are
And I'd say we've come
The nearest yet by far
'Cause I can lie next to you
But I can't lie to you

(Chorus)
So walk into the sun and watch me
Run into the rain
For you, the future's easy, so don't weep
For me, it's getting...

Steeper
From where the dark that's where I want to be
Steeper
From going somewhere you won't want to see

So walk into the sun and watch me
Run into the rain
For you, the future's easy, so don't weep
Yes, I will watch you
Walk into the sun and watch me
Run into the rain drops
For you, the future's easy, so don't weep
For me, it's getting steep...

    This song is about an older woman who loves a younger man. The future is very bright for the young man and though both are in love the older woman has to let go and pretend that she doesn't love him because keeping him would be like confining him in a narrow world. She would feel very selfish by restricting the guy's youth, freedom and future happiness. Their situation is good for the short-term but she is well aware that she is not the woman who he can build a family with. So before she falls very deep in love, she has to pretend that she doesn't love him anymore so that it will be easier to walk away and the guy will not pursue her anymore.

    Hrm. Every time I hear this song I get melancholic. I kinda "feel" the song, even though I'm not in this kind of situation.
    Sometimes you love but it's just not enough I guess. You've gotta stop lying to that other person, because you love him enough not to lie, but not enough for the relationship to last, so it's better to let him be free to find someone else who'll love him better. So sad. *Sniff*.

    I'm currently reading the last book of the hunger games trilogy by suzanne collins which is the mockingjay. I was reading the part where katniss everdeen and gale hawthorne went back to district 12 specifically in the kitchen part where gale and katniss had this conversation about the kiss that katniss gave to gale after he was whipped. This song reminded me of the part:.
    ("i" pertains to katniss since she was the one narrating.)
    "have to be dead to forget. Maybe even not then," he tells me. "maybe i'll be like that man in 'the.
    Hanging tree. ' still waiting for an answer. " gale, who I have never seen cry, has tears in his eyes. To.
    Keep them from spilling over, I reach forward and press my lips against his. We taste of heat, ashes, and.
    Misery. It's a surprising flavor for such a gentle kiss. He pulls away first and gives me a wry smile. "i
    Knew you'd kiss me. "
    "how? " I say. Because I didn't know myself.
    "because i'm in pain," he says. "that's the only way i get your attention. " he picks up the box. "don't
    Worry, katniss. It'll pass. " he leaves before I can answer.
    I cried after I read this. Really cried hard. And as for now, I'm crying again. It's just so unfair. You love someone but that person you love won't love you back the way you want them to. You'll just have to let them go just to make them happy. You'll just have to wait until the feeling fades away. I guess the odds were not in gale's favor. :(

    This song really catches you in a deeply moving way. Not only is the melody beautiful, but the lyrics makes you wonder why the singer can't go on with the person she apparently loves. The song's meaning offered above, of an older woman in love with a younger partner is spot on. I imagine as well that it could be a difference of outlook in life between two lovers: one who would rather live a simple life, and one who is a go getter and is bent on pursuing a rather lofty career or lifestyle.

    This song makes me wonder why do sometimes people needs to sacrifice. It makes me miss my special someone, Wishing him to be mine but I know it will not be realize because someone already owns his heart. I'm stupid and someimes pathetic that's the essence of loving a person who doesn't love you in return. In connection with this song, I hope that someday this love will fade and I couldn't love you this same way now. ='(

    It’s really melancholic when you get to realize how things are so different now. How love fades through the years. I thought my love is stronger that anything else in this world, I was wrong. After 6 years, I cannot feel the same happiness anymore. It’s hallow. I always look for the happiness I felt way back, but unfortunately I am an alien to that feeling now. It’s nowhere to be found. Every waking day of my life, I am trying to give it another try. But as days passed, I realized how I don’t want to cage you into something you do not deserve.

    I actually love the song even if I'm not in the same shoes. I feel the every words, sometimes telling that the love is not the same thing anymore is harder. Evaluating and contradicting yourself, you wanted to be free but you don't want to hurt anyone, most especially the one you used to offer forever.

    Sometimes when we realize things are not meant for us we actually hide the feeling that we've been hurt and trying to smile everyday. It's not a good way for us to keep what we are feeling how can we be free if we try to hide what we really feel, sometimes it is just a lesson for us to teach us that we should not take evrything or someone for granted because it may not come again. And we end up empty.

    I've been looking for the lyrics of this song since 2007 until someone told me I can search this over Google. Way back in 2007 when I and my husband was planning for our church wedding someone close to him (a female friend) told him to include this to our list of wedding songs. Omg I'm glad she's not my friend I never did include such. My God what does she mean? My husband don't love me?
