It's Been a While Since You Missed Me
Rediscovering Love Through Time: It's Been a While Since You Missed Me
Lyrics
There's a scene that plays inside my head almost every night
Reflecting on a recurring mental scene each night.
Yeah, we're sitting in your car, I'm on the passenger side
Recalling a shared moment in a car, emphasizing passenger side.
A handmade sweater from a thrift store
Describing a handmade sweater, likely symbolizing intimacy.
A pair of jeans you don't wear anymore
Noting old jeans, suggesting the passage of time.
All these little things remind me of who we used to be
Nostalgia for past connection through familiar items.
The sunlight trapped inside your eyes
Describing the brightness in the person's eyes.
The birds were singing of the blue skies
Connecting the atmosphere with singing birds and blue skies.
I loved you then, and you loved me
Expressing love during that specific time.
But now we're in between
Indicating a current state of ambiguity or change in the relationship.
It's been a while
Reiterating the passage of time.
It's been a while
Highlighting the prolonged absence of certain feelings or events.
It's been a while since you missed me
Stating the duration since the person missed the narrator.
It's been a while
Repeating the acknowledgment of a prolonged absence.
It's been a while
Emphasizing the time that has passed without being missed.
It's been a while since you missed me
Restating the duration since the person felt missed.
Well, you got focus on your test scores
Addressing the person's focus on academic achievements.
But there's some things you can't ignore
Highlighting the existence of unresolved matters.
Don't you try to act like you forgot what we had
Challenging the person's attempt to forget the past relationship.
And I would drive 10,000 miles
Expressing a willingness to go to great lengths for a reunion.
Just to see that smile just one more time
Desiring to witness a specific expression again.
I know you're in Chicago, but that's not too far for me
Recognizing the physical distance but expressing a willingness to bridge it.
But it's been a while
Reiterating the prolonged absence of certain emotions or events.
It's been a while
Continuing the theme of extended emotional absence.
It's been a while since you missed me
Reaffirming the duration since the person missed the narrator.
It's been a while
Repeating the acknowledgment of a prolonged absence.
It's been a while
Emphasizing the time that has passed without being missed.
It's been a while since you missed me
Restating the duration since the person felt missed.
It's been a while
Reiterating the passage of time.
It's been a while
Continuing the theme of extended emotional absence.
It's been a while
Further emphasizing the prolonged duration without certain feelings or events.
It's been a while
Repeating the acknowledgment of a prolonged absence.
It's been a while
Emphasizing the time that has passed without being missed.
It's been a while since you loved me
Affirming the extended period since the person loved the narrator.
