Old Feelings
Eternal Echoes: Unveiling the Unheard Stories in 'Old Feelings'
Lyrics
You spray Marc Jacobs perfume
You wear Marc Jacobs perfume.
A dead scent is finally exhumed
A previously inactive scent is revived or remembered.
As we clink our glasses
We toast to the future.
To five more years
Celebrating and hoping for five more years together.
Your eyes are smiling
Your eyes express happiness.
Mine are filled with tears
My eyes are filled with sorrow.
Cause I don't hear
I no longer hear the old songs that were once significant.
The old songs no more
I no longer experience the same emotions as before.
And I don't feel
The emotions have changed and won't return.
The way I did before
Expressing a change in feelings, and it's irreversible.
The feeling's gone
The once cherished emotions are now absent.
And it ain't coming back
The feelings are gone and won't return.
You don't deserve it
You may not deserve the change, but my heart is moving in a new direction.
But my heart's on another track
Sitting at the place where the relationship began.
We sit by the river
The external surroundings may seem the same, but there's an underlying threat.
Where we first met
A contrast between outward appearance and internal emotions.
The moon's the same
Despite the external smile, everything is cold within for a while.
But below there's a threat
Turning away after saying goodnight, a sense of detachment.
In the deepest dark
You dismiss me as you move toward the light.
Behind my smile
Imagining a realization of the absence of something once present.
All is cold
The search for something that is no longer available.
It has been for a while
Continued absence of the old songs, discarding the past.
I turn on my side
Letting go of everything we once had.
After kissing you goodnight
If I could feel the way I should, I would stay until the end.
You brush off me
Expressing a longing for the past emotions that are no longer present.
As you reach for the light
The feelings are gone, and there's no return.
Then I imagine you become self aware
You may not deserve this change, but my heart is set on a new path.
As you search for something
Emphasizing the absence of old emotions and sensations.
That's no longer there
The irreversible shift in emotions and the heart's new trajectory.
Cause I don't hear
A reflection on the absence of familiar songs and emotions.
The old songs no more
Discarding everything from the past.
And all we had I've thrown out the door
An acknowledgment of the loss of the old emotions.
If I could feel the way I know I should
If I could feel the way I should, I would stay until the end.
Then I would stay
Expressing a longing for the past emotions that are no longer present.
Until we're both stuffed in wood
The feelings are gone, and there's no return.
But I don't hear
You may not deserve this change, but my heart is set on a new path.
The old songs no more
A reflection on the absence of familiar songs and emotions.
And I don't feel
I no longer experience the same emotions as before.
The way I did before
The emotions have changed and won't return.
The feeling's gone
Expressing a change in feelings, and it's irreversible.
And it ain't coming back
The once cherished emotions are now absent.
You don't deserve it
The feelings are gone and won't return.
But my heart's on another track
You may not deserve the change, but my heart is moving in a new direction.
