Lyrics
I remember it like it was yesterday
I have a vivid recollection of the past, similar to yesterday.
In this brand new place
In this new environment.
Too young, too scared, too innocent
Feeling too young, scared, and innocent.
To make mistakes
Not ready to make mistakes.
Oh
Expression of emotion or realization.
Ooh we've come so far yeah I know we have
We have come a long way; acknowledging progress.
Yeah we cried we laughed
Recalling both moments of joy and sorrow.
Too bold, too brave, too strong
Being too bold, brave, and strong.
Yeah we've grown up way to fast
Acknowledging rapid growth and maturation.
Come on
An encouraging call to action.
Don't let this fade away
Expressing a desire to preserve the memories.
All the wonderful memories we made
Reflecting on the wonderful memories created.
Why do I still feel this way
Questioning why the emotions persist.
Yeah it's so bittersweet when you're leaving me
Describing the conflicting emotions of parting as bittersweet.
But I know it's time to let you go
Recognizing that it's time to let go.
So I'll say goodbye the way I know
Saying farewell in a familiar way.
I wish I could put this all on
Expressing a desire to pause or rewind time.
Pause or rewind just to go back in
Reflecting on the wish to go back in time.
Time to remind my eyes of what I've seen
Recalling past experiences through the eyes.
This together might not last forever
Acknowledging the impermanence of togetherness.
So much pressure to make this all better
Feeling pressure to improve the situation.
But I'd never, never change a thing
Despite challenges, not wanting to change anything.
Oh
Expression of emotion or realization.
Don't let this fade away
Reiterating the desire to preserve memories.
All the wonderful memories we made
Reflecting on the wonderful memories once again.
Why do I still feel this way
Questioning why the emotions persist (repeated).
Yeah it's so bittersweet when you're leaving me

But I know it's time to let you go

Yeah I just can't believe what's in front of me
Expressing disbelief at the current situation.
But I look back and I realize
Looking back and realizing the positive impact.
Cuz of you I might just be alright
Attributing a positive outcome to the influence of someone.
Ooo
Expression of emotion or realization.
Cuz of you, cuz of you, cuz of you
Repeating gratitude for someone's influence.
I'll be alright
Expressing confidence in being okay due to someone's influence.
Yeah it's so bittersweet when you're leaving me
Describing the conflicting emotions of parting as bittersweet (repeated).
But I know it's time to let you go
Recognizing that it's time to let go (repeated).
I'll say goodbye the way I know
Saying farewell in a familiar way (repeated).
Yeah it's so bittersweet but I thank you for everything
Expressing gratitude despite the bittersweet feelings.
Though it hurts I'm still smiling
Acknowledging the pain but choosing to smile.
Knowing how much you mean to me
Recognizing the significant meaning of the person departing.
