One line towards the beginning of the song sums up the story beautifully: “I’m in the moment touching every inch of you, what a sweet farewell my friend.” This couple has decided to have one last night together, and vocalist Casey Cafego sings about savoring every last second of it. We all can relate to saying goodbye to someone we love and doing our best to simply take in all of their details until we are able to see them again. In this song, though, the couple knows they might never see each other again, which makes these feelings of desperate determination to live in the moment all the more impactful.
An instrumental breakdown with chugging guitars and electric riffs lay the scene for this couple dancing together for the last time. The intense energy and gradual build of the song mirror the emotions becoming more chaotic as the night draws to a close and the inevitable end of the relationship approaches. Cafego sings “we can’t keep going down this path, so let me have this dance” to show that strange balance between knowing something is ending, and being grateful that it’s not ending just yet.
