Nostalgic Reflections: Australian Football's Melancholy Tale
Lyrics
Remember when, leant you my cousins Fight Club dvd on Saturday
Recalling a time when the speaker lent their cousin a Fight Club DVD on a Saturday.
She asked for it back a few times, I didn't know what to say
The cousin asked for the DVD back multiple times, and the speaker was unsure how to respond.
That we didn't really know each other but wish you were OK
Expressing a desire for the well-being of someone the speaker didn't know well but hoped was okay.
You were too young to go and I know that's not a lot say
Reflecting on the person being too young to pass away, acknowledging the inadequacy of words.
But your friends are doing well some are married with kids on the way
Noting that friends have progressed in life with some married and expecting children.
Talked briefly at your sisters wedding but I couldn't stay
Recalling a brief conversation at the sister's wedding but unable to stay connected.
Been a long time since I've seen them all and that's a shame
Expressing regret about not seeing them for a long time, acknowledging the changes in life.
That growing up nothing really stays the same
Reflecting on the inevitability of change while growing up.
We're all going to be alright
Repeating the affirmation that everyone will be alright, possibly to cope with the challenges of life.
We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-I wonder
Expressing curiosity about being missed after leaving home for the city and not being good at football.
Home do you miss me
-Left you all for the city
-I wonder
-Home do you miss me
-Wasn't good at footy
-I wonder
-Home do you miss me
-Left you all for the city
-I wonder
-Home do you miss me
-Wasn't good at footy
-I was sad
Reflecting on feelings of sadness, waiting for something that was never attained, and the transient nature of life.
Sitting there waiting for something that I never had
-Swear I saw you leaving but I guess should have asked
-Coming back here reminds me that nothing ever lasts
-The best days are the ones that I don't feel so mad
-Wrote this song thought of you
Writing a song, contemplating change, and expressing regret about an ending, possibly related to the impact of a departure.
Time to try something new
-Didn't have to end like that
-Heard you left us on impact
-Talked to George yesterday
Updating on George's well-being, planning to have a drink in memory of someone.
Wished him well he was doing okay
-Gonna have a drink real soon
-We'll make sure we have one for you
-We're all going to be alright
Repeating the reassurance that everyone will be alright, emphasizing hope and resilience.
We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-We're all going to be alright
-I wonder
Reiterating the theme of wondering if home is missed after leaving for the city, acknowledging a lack of skill in football.
Home do you miss me
-Left you all for the city
-I wonder
-Home do you miss me
-Wasn't good at footy
-I wonder
-Home do you miss me
-Left you all for the city
-I wonder
-Home do you miss me
