I Thought About You
Journey of Remembrance: I Thought About You
Lyrics
Seems that I read, or somebody said
Contemplating a statement or information, possibly about the impact of being out of sight on one's thoughts.
That out of sight is out of mind
Reflecting on the common saying that being physically distant can lead to emotional detachment.
Maybe that's so but I tried to go
Acknowledging the possibility that the saying might be true, but attempting to distance oneself from someone.
And leave you behind, what did I find
Discovering something unexpected or contrary when trying to move on.
I took a trip on the train
Embarking on a journey, specifically a train trip.
And I thought about you,
Thinking about the person during the train journey.
I passed a shadowy lane
Passing through a dimly lit pathway.
And I thought about you,
Continuing to think about the person during the journey.
Two or three cars parked under the stars
Observing a scene with parked cars under the stars.
A winding stream
Noticing a winding stream.
Moon shining down on some little town
Describing a moonlit night in a small town.
And with each beam, same old dream
Associating the moonlight with a recurring dream.
At every stop that we made
Reflecting on thoughts about the person at every stop of the train.
Oh, I thought about you
Continuing to think about the person at each train stop.
But when I pulled down the shade
Feeling a sense of melancholy when closing the window shade.
Then I really felt blue,
Experiencing sadness and emotional impact after closing the shade.
I peeked through the crack
Prying into the situation, peeking through a crack or opening.
And looked at the track
Examining the railroad track, possibly contemplating the journey back to the person.
The one going back to you
Identifying the track leading back to the person.
And what did I do
Reflecting on actions taken or decisions made regarding the return to the person.
I thought about you
Persisting in thoughts about the person.
