Memories of You
Unraveling the Tapestry of Love: Bryan Lazar's 'Memories of You' Meaning
Lyrics
Hello
Greeting or acknowledgment
I know it's been some time
Acknowledging the passage of time
But it's kind of funny running into you
Finding it coincidental to meet again
Oh you know
Acknowledgment of shared knowledge or history
Well this and this and that
Referencing various unspecified things
Can we cut the bullshit
Requesting honesty and directness
Skip straight to the facts
Desire to skip unnecessary conversation and get to the point
It's true
Confirming a truth
I guess that I miss you
Admitting to missing the person
Let go
Suggesting to release or move past something
Of all the things you know
Letting go of knowledge or baggage
And just take my hand and
Inviting someone to join in an adventurous act
Let's jump in the lake
Symbolic gesture of spontaneity and shared experience
Cuz I know
Asserting confidence or certainty
With you here by my side
Feeling supported or complete with the person
I feel like my world is two
Suggesting emotional overwhelm due to the person's presence
It's all that I can take
Expressing the limit of emotional endurance
But still, yeah still
Reiterating the struggle despite efforts
We can't seem to figure it out
Admitting inability to solve the issue
And still, yeah still
Continuing uncertainty about the situation
We don't know what it's all about
Admitting confusion or lack of understanding
Like all the things I can't explain
Referencing unexplainable aspects of the relationship
With you and all I've said
Reflecting on past discussions or arguments with the person
With memories and blank CD's
Mentioning mementos and thoughts associated with the person
And my thoughts up in my head
Having thoughts or memories occupying the mind
So I'll just sit and wonder why
Expressing contemplation or confusion about actions
I do the things I do
Questioning personal motives or behaviors
And never let my treasures go
Reluctance to let go of cherished memories
My memories of you
Valuing and holding onto memories of the person
And all the things you can't explain
Highlighting unexplained aspects from the person's perspective
From advice and what you've read
Referring to advice or knowledge acquired from the person
From thoughts of I and tears in eyes
Mentioning personal thoughts and emotions
When you're lying in your bed
Implies vulnerability or emotional moments alone
So we'll just sit and wonder why
Jointly contemplating reasons behind actions
We do the things we do
Questioning motives or reasons for behavior
Memories of you
Emphasizing the lasting impact of memories related to the person
