Embracing Memories: A Tale of Love, Pain, and Redemption in Erika Karina's 'Older'
Lyrics
I still remember
I have vivid memories of the past.
The end
Reflecting on the conclusion or breakup.
I cried for such a long time
I experienced a prolonged period of crying.
Out of every single person I've ever known
Thinking about everyone I've ever known.
You do not leave my mind
You are constantly on my mind.
If only you knew me when I was older
Expressing a desire for understanding from the past.
Imagine the life we could create
Envisioning the possibilities of a shared life.
I will think always about you
I will always have thoughts about you.
What we had was so strong
Our past relationship was powerful and meaningful.
There's not a doubt in my mind that
I am certain about the strength of what we had.
You don't remember
You may not recall our shared experiences.
Our special bond
Emphasizing a unique and close connection.
Our special bond
Reiteration of a special bond.
If only you knew me when I was older
Expressing a wish for understanding in a later stage of life.
Imagine the life we could create
Continuation of imagining a shared future.
The girl I was back then was in so much pain
The person I used to be suffered greatly.
And what do the hurt people do?
Exploring the cycle of hurt and its perpetuation.
They hurt others just the same
People who are hurt often inflict pain on others.
If only you knew me when I was older
Reiterating the desire for understanding from a more mature perspective.
If only, if only, yeah
Expressing a sense of longing or regret.
Imagine the life we could create
Continuation of imagining an alternate life together.
