Lyrics
I remember the pink paint on the houses
I recall the pink-colored paint on the houses.
Pastel daydream
A dream with soft, pale colors.
And the pink in our eyes
Noting the pink tint in our eyes.
We didn't sleep that night
We stayed awake throughout that night.
I remember the sand
I recall the sand being too cold to stand on.
Was too cold to stand still
The ocean shore was too chilly for us to remain still.
I remember the ocean
The ocean itself caught our attention.
Waved to us from the shore
The waves seemed to greet us from the shore.
Call me when you get into the city
Please call me once you reach the city.
I can be anywhere in a 15 minute drive
I can reach any location within a 15-minute drive.
So much pressure on a cup of coffee
A lot of expectation or significance placed on a simple cup of coffee.
Some things you can't leave to the sands of time
Some things cannot be left to the unpredictable nature of time.
I remember the moon shone bright in the daytime
The moon was exceptionally bright during the day.
Hung over you like a halo
It hung over you like a halo, casting a glow.
Those missionary eyes
Describing captivating eyes, possibly with a mission or hidden motives.
Or mercenary in disguise
Eyes that may be either deeply devoted or driven by personal gain.
I remember in that moment I didn't love you
There was a moment when I didn't feel love for you.
Protestant guilt drowned me
A sense of guilt associated with a particular religious background.
Before you could try
Before you had a chance to attempt something.
Before you said goodbye
Before you uttered farewell.
Call me when you get into the city
Once you arrive in the city, give me a call.
I can be anywhere in a 15 minute drive
I can quickly reach any location within a 15-minute drive.
I want to tell you that I'll always love you
I wish to express that I will always love you.
Some things you can only see in time
Some things become clear only with the passage of time.
Friend of mine
A friend of mine.
