it wouldn't be fair
Nostalgic Echoes: Love's Bittersweet Symphony in Daisy Veacock's Melody
Lyrics
Remember that first date the hill by the tree
Recalling the first date at a hill by a tree.
We started walking had that mint cup of tea
Walking and sharing a mint cup of tea on that day.
The leaves still hadn't fallen
Noting the time when the leaves were still on the trees.
That late orange glow
Describing the late orange glow of that moment.
I think about that day a lot you know
Reflecting on the significance of that memorable day.
Remember waking up hungover in bed
Recalling waking up hungover in bed.
A hundred texts you'd left saying 'you were off your head'
Noting the numerous texts received while being intoxicated.
Kissing in the kitchen of a girl we barely knew
Remembering kissing in the kitchen of an acquaintance.
Remember when it felt so new
Reflecting on the freshness of the early relationship.
We never had a good goodbye
Expressing the absence of a proper farewell.
I couldn't look you in the eyes
Acknowledging difficulty in making eye contact during parting.
A billion things I struggled just to say
Struggling with communication and unspoken sentiments.
When I felt my heart breaking to my favourite song
Experiencing heartbreak to a favorite song.
It felt like everyone I knew was singing along
Feeling a shared connection with others through the song.
The rebound wasn't worth it and how could he be
Questioning the worth of a rebound after the breakup.
When you're the one he's trying to match up to baby
Comparing new relationships to the memory of the ex-partner.
I'd thank you for the days we spent I'll try not care
Expressing gratitude for the past but attempting not to care.
Cause I know by me calling it just wouldn't be fair
Recognizing that calling might be unfair in the present.
Remember waiting at the bus stop in the rain
Recalling waiting at a bus stop in the rain.
Said you didn't have to walk with me again
Being told not to walk together in the rain.
I knew the way completely but you would insist
Knowing the way but appreciating the insistence to walk together.
You'd wave until you would be missed
Waving goodbye until being missed.
We never had a good goodbye
Reiterating the absence of a proper goodbye.
I couldn't look you in the eyes
Difficulty in making eye contact during parting, again.
A billion things I struggled just to say
Continued struggle with unspoken sentiments.
Then I felt my heart breaking to my favourite song
Experiencing heartbreak again to the same favorite song.
The world without you in it started feeling so wrong
Feeling the world without the person and its wrongness.
The hardest of decisions but it had to be
Making a difficult decision that had to be done.
You're probably so much better now you're not with me
Speculating that the person is better off without the speaker.
Still thank you for those days we spent I'll try not to care
Expressing gratitude for the past, with an attempt not to care.
Cause I know by me calling it just wouldn't be fair
Reiterating the understanding that calling wouldn't be fair.
Thank you for those days we spent I'll try not to care
Repeating thanks for the past, reiterating an attempt not to care.
Cause I know by me calling it just wouldn't be fair
Emphasizing that calling wouldn't be fair, once again.
