Lyrics
We were slow dancing
We engaged in a slow dance.
In the front of my car
The dance occurred in the front seat of my car.
Which was in front of your house
The car was parked in front of your house.
Didn’t know it would be our last
We were unaware it would be our final encounter.
The song that was playing in the radio
The radio played a song you had sung to me in the past.
Was the song that you sang to me a few heartbreaks ago
This song evokes memories of previous heartbreaks.
And I remember that day
I vividly recall that particular day.
Just like it was yesterday
The memory feels recent, akin to yesterday.
At the same time
Despite feeling recent, it also seems like a long time ago.
It felt like ages had past
Time seemed to pass slowly.
Life moved slow
Life moved at a sluggish pace, resembling a turtle reaching the seaside.
Like a turtle getting to the seaside
We may not fully understand life's mysteries.
But what do we know?
Considering the uncertainties, what if we attempted to rekindle our relationship?
But what if we tried
Exploring the possibility of a renewed connection.
To give us another shot
If given another chance, the relationship could endure.
I’m sure we’d last till the end
Expressing confidence that a revived relationship would last.
‘Cause so many times it was the two of us
Reflecting on numerous shared moments.
I can’t count our love by number
Quantifying love is challenging, but memories endure emotionally.
But I’ll always remember by heart
Commitment to remembering experiences by heart.
I’ll be honest
Admitting honesty in emotions.
I never thought you would leave
Unexpected departure; never anticipated you would leave.
We even planned out our future
We made plans for the future based on certainty.
Just out of certainty
Acknowledging that life doesn't always follow plans.
I know things don’t always go as planned
Recognizing the pain when things don't go as expected.
But man, this one hurt
Emphasizing the unexpected nature of the hurt.
It just goes to show
Highlighting the unpredictability of life.
That nothing is for sure
Nothing is guaranteed, including promises.
Not even promises
Underlining the uncertainty of commitments.
So that slow dance we shared
Recalling a shared slow dance as a moment of great fortune.
In that moment I felt like the luckiest
Feeling lucky in that moment despite its brevity.
I still do
Continuing to feel fortunate even with the passage of time.
Even if it was short-lived
Acknowledging the short-lived nature of the experience.
But what if we tried
Reiterating the possibility of giving the relationship another chance.
To give us another shot
Confident that a revived relationship could withstand challenges.
I’m sure we’d last till the end
Expressing belief in the enduring nature of their connection.
‘Cause so many times it was the two of us
Reflecting on the frequent presence of both individuals in shared experiences.
I can’t count our love by number
Quantifying the love shared without relying on numbers.
But I’ll always remember by heart
Committing to remembering the love emotionally.
Now that you’re gone
Addressing the absence and the impact on shared dreams.
Our dreams won’t come true
Recognizing the unfulfilled potential of their shared future.
So I guess the life we could’ve had
Accepting that the life they could have had will linger in memory.
Will live in the back of my mind
The unrealized dreams will reside in the depths of my thoughts.
