I've been a fan of Carrie's since she won American Idol. What I really like about this song is that it represents the exact mentality that I had when I left Canada in September to begin my adventure abroad. At the time, I didn't know how long I would live over here or how long my adventure would last. All I knew was that I would see all of my friends and family again.
Now, I can say that this music video has come at a good time because it shows both good-byes and reunions with loved ones, both of which I will be experiencing in about 7 weeks time. I'll be saying good-bye to the friends I have made in London, and I'll be saying hello to my family and friends. And let me tell you, I can't wait for that airport greeting! If anyone at the airport thought they had seen a fast mover get off an airplane at Christmas, wait until I'm practically racing through customs, security, and picking up my baggage! Let's hope my bags aren't the last ones to be unloaded this time too!
While I can't wait for my arrival in Canada, I'll be sad to leave some great friends that I have made here in London. This is when "See You Again" will take on new meaning for me, because it'll no longer be about my loved ones in Canada, but those I have come to love in London who are remaining in London or are leaving to start their own adventures elsewhere.
There is not an once of this song that I haven't felt at one time or another. Here's the lyrics and then have a listen and watch of the excellent music video!
See You Again
"See You Again"
Said goodbye, turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone
Faded into the setting sun,
Slipped away
But I won’t cry
Cause I know I’ll never be lonely
For you are the stars to me,
You are the light I follow
[Chorus:]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
I can hear those echoes in the wind at night
Calling me back in time
Back to you
In a place far away
Where the water meets the sky
The thought of it makes me smile
You are my tomorrow
[Chorus:]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
[Bridge:]
Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking
But I stay strong and I hold on cause I know
I’ll see you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, yeah yeah
[Outro:]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
Till I see you again,
Till I see you again,
Said goodbye turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone.
And you were gone, gone, gone
Faded into the setting sun,
Slipped away
But I won’t cry
Cause I know I’ll never be lonely
For you are the stars to me,
You are the light I follow
[Chorus:]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
I can hear those echoes in the wind at night
Calling me back in time
Back to you
In a place far away
Where the water meets the sky
The thought of it makes me smile
You are my tomorrow
[Chorus:]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
[Bridge:]
Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking
But I stay strong and I hold on cause I know
I’ll see you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, yeah yeah
[Outro:]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
Till I see you again,
Till I see you again,
Said goodbye turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone.
