Lyrics meaning

The singer looks back on a happier, carefree time and addresses Sofia after their relationship has changed. He says he no longer believes or longs for her, yet he keeps seeing her and wanting her, revealing that he has not truly moved on. The repeated questions suggest jealousy and uncertainty about the person she is now with.

“Without your gaze” suggests more than missing eye contact: he feels the loss of Sofia’s attention and presence. The image of having “cut her wings” implies that he limited her freedom or ability to grow, while the line about another person helping her fly and dream hints that she may feel more alive elsewhere. His repeated question about how that person looks at her shows him comparing himself with a rival.

The lyrics hold conflicting feelings rather than giving a clear account of the breakup. The singer admits he may have hurt Sofia, but he also sounds possessive and fixated on whether she has moved on. His claim that he no longer desires her sits uneasily beside his repeated declarations that he does. This tension can be heard as denial, emotional confusion, or both; the lyrics do not tell us exactly what Sofia feels.
