Tallulah
Journey of Memories: Tallulah's Melody in Summer Breeze
Lyrics
On a drive from solution to surface
Reflecting on a journey from finding solutions to the surface.
In my old university car
Recalling a past car from university.
We had the windows down for our recon
Driving with open windows during reconnaissance despite the hot weather.
Though it was so hot that you burned your arm
Describing the extreme heat during the drive.
It was the tail and over summer
Referring to the tail end of something, possibly the drive, and the onset of summer.
And the heat washed in with the breeze
Heat coming in with the breeze, setting the summer atmosphere.
And you were searching something to sing to
The person is searching for a song to sing to.
As the radio played another terrible song
Listening to another bad song on the radio.
But lucky for me, you found the tape with Tallulah on
Fortunately, finding a tape with the song "Tallulah."
And it's been a long time
Expressing that it's been a long time since seeing old friends.
Since I've seen all my old friends
Nostalgia for old friends.
But I really love my new friends
Expressing love for new friends.
I feel I've known them a long while
Feeling a deep connection with new friends.
Then last summer you wrote me a letter
Receiving a letter written on a surf magazine.
On the back of a surf magazine
The friend wonders about what could have been.
You said you didn't have any paper
Explaining the lack of paper for writing the letter.
And maybe you wondered what could have been
Hinting at the contemplation of missed opportunities.
So I sent you a postcard from Berlin of a fatman eating a sausage
Sending a postcard from Berlin, depicting a fat man eating a sausage.
And hear the fact that I was hiding
Highlighting a moment of hiding or avoiding something.
As the DJ played another terrible song
Listening to another bad song from a DJ.
But lucky for us, we found a bar with the metals on
Fortuitously finding a bar with the music they enjoy.
And it's been a long time
Expressing the passage of a long time since seeing old friends.
Since I've seen all my old friends
Nostalgia for the past and old friendships.
But I really love my new friends
Expressing love for new friends in the present.
I feel I've known them a long while
Feeling a deep connection with new friends.
I'm wondering if I've already heard all the songs that'll mean something
Contemplating whether all meaningful songs have already been heard.
And I'm wondering if I've already met all the people that'll mean something
Reflecting on meeting all the people who will be meaningful in life.
But I find myself daydreaming of the places where we used to stay
Daydreaming about places from the past.
Used to brush them away
Recalling brushing away memories.
Sinkilada, Cool and Gata on the beach and ?
Mentioning specific places, possibly with nostalgic significance.
Like the sound of their names
Expressing an appreciation for the sound of those names.
And I wonder if you would wanna go there with me
Contemplating if the friend would want to visit those places together.
When I'm finished over here
Anticipating the end of the current situation and planning for the future.
If you're not finished with me
Expressing uncertainty about the friend's commitment.
