Lyrics
The baseball fields back home are wrought with dandelions
The baseball fields in my hometown are covered with dandelions.
The times we'd lay inside them feels so far away
Reflecting on the times we spent lying in those fields, which now seem distant.
The carvings in this tree here sing the stories we had made
The carvings on a tree symbolize and echo the stories we created together.
Oh how I miss you so, the taste of your lips
Expressing a strong longing and nostalgia, missing the person and the intimate moments.
Linger like the marigolds in the springtime
Comparing the lingering feeling of the person's lips to the lasting presence of marigolds in spring.
Teasing summer before they go
Describing the marigolds as teasing the upcoming summer before fading away.
You look enchanting in these Polaroids we took
Complimenting the person's enchanting appearance in Polaroid pictures taken together.
Sitting in this box that you made with our keepsakes
Sitting in a box filled with mementos and keepsakes created together.
Mine sits right by yours just cherishing the moment
Highlighting the intimacy of having personal items side by side and cherishing the shared moments.
Oak trees by your old house are showing off their colors
Observing the oak trees near the person's old house showcasing vibrant colors.
Of earthen cultures it all
Referencing the diverse cultural influences represented by the earthy colors of the oak trees.
Seems so different now driving past your street has made me
Expressing a sense of change and nostalgia while driving past the person's street.
Homesick for your warmth
Feeling homesick for the warmth and comfort the person provided.
And how you loved to dance
Recalling the person's love for dancing.
The bliss from your smile lingers like the sunlight
The happiness derived from the person's smile lingers, akin to sunlight in autumn.
On those days in autumn inscribing beauty haunting so
Describing the beauty inscribed in autumn days as haunting and enduring.
You're so enchanting in those Polaroids we took
Reiterating the enchanting quality of the person in Polaroid images.
Sitting in that box that you made
Being in a box filled with memories and keepsakes, reflecting on shared experiences.
You always wore that dress so well
Remembering the person's stylish wearing of a particular dress.
There's still pieces of me left playing in those moments
Acknowledging that parts of oneself are still invested in and connected to those past moments.
Oh how I miss you so
Expressing a continued strong longing and missing the person.
The taste of your lips linger like the marigolds
Comparing the lingering taste of the person's lips to the lasting presence of marigolds.
