That Moment
Caught in Moments: Longing and Remembrance
Lyrics
I See u walking alone and I stop to think
I see someone walking alone, and it prompts me to ponder.
I think about what we are soon to be
I contemplate the future of our relationship.
Oh I will carry on and I will see u soon
Despite difficulties, I will continue forward and anticipate seeing you soon.
I'll see u walking again just for one afternoon
I foresee encountering you again, perhaps briefly.
And the thoughts are coming down like the tears on her face
My thoughts overwhelm me, much like tears on someone's face.
We can settle down maybe find a nice place
There's a desire to settle down and find a comfortable place together.
I tried to think of the better ways to have u stay
I've attempted various ways to persuade you to stay.
Tried to communicate while you looked the wrong way
Despite my efforts to communicate, you seem disinterested or inattentive.
Am I expected to read your mind
I'm unsure if I'm supposed to understand your thoughts without you expressing them.
Then I succeed and u call it a waste of your time
When I do succeed in understanding, you dismiss it as a waste of time.
And the thoughts are coming down like the tears on her face
Similar to tears on someone's face, my thoughts are heavy and persistent.
We can settle down maybe find a nice place
Reiteration of the desire to settle down and find a pleasant place together.
I know I know I won't see u again
I acknowledge that I won't have the chance to see you again.
But i can't really help remembering
Despite knowing this, I can't help but remember our past interactions.
The way that u talked
I recall the way you spoke.
The way that u laughed
I reminisce about the way you laughed.
The way that u didn't give a second chance
I remember how you didn't offer a second chance.
I hope I hope I do see u again
Expressing hope for another opportunity to meet.
Cause I just wish that u hadn't said
I wish you hadn't mentioned the likelihood of us not meeting again.
I probably won't see u again
Repeating the sentiment that the chances of seeing each other again seem slim.
Cause your still caught up on that moment
You are still preoccupied with a specific moment from the past.
I stop I stare
A repetition emphasizing the intense impact of seeing the person as they were when they were first met.
I see u standing there
-The way u stood there when we first met
-I stop I stare
-I see u standing there
-The way u stood there when we first met
-I stop I stare
-I see u standing there
-The way u stood there when we first met
-I know I know I won't see u again
A repetition of lines 13-20, underscoring the emotions and desires expressed.
But i can't really help remembering
-The way that u talked
-The way that u laughed
-The way that u didn't give a second chance
-I hope I hope I do see u again
-Cause I just wish that u hadn't said
-I probably won't see u again
-Cause your still caught up on that moment
Your focus remains fixated on that particular moment from the past.
