The song "We Will" by Gilbert O'Sullivan tells the story of a relationship coming to an end. The lyrics suggest that the fun is over and it's time for the two individuals involved to move on. They are urged to quickly go upstairs, take off their shoes, and leave them outside the door. The narrator contemplates whether they should turn off the landing light or leave it on, as it might make it easier for them to leave in the dark. The morning after, the narrator wonders who will be awake, enjoying the beauty of snowflakes while leaving behind the challenging aspects of their relationship. The song then shifts to a specific afternoon spent with Uncle Frank and Auntie Mae. The narrator received multiple letters from them, expressing their excitement and disbelief that they were able to spend time together. They reminisce on the experience repeatedly. The lyrics continue with the hope that there's even a small chance for the narrator to come back to the same place, promising to stay if given the opportunity. The overall meaning of the song seems to be about the complexities of relationships, the difficulty of pretending not to hear the reflections or echoes of the past, and the importance of recognizing that every ending is also a new beginning.
