Lyrics
Do you remember
Recollection of a past event or relationship.
When we were younger
Reflecting on the time when both were younger.
We would always say
Expressing a commitment to being together.
That we would be together?
Highlighting the changed circumstances.
Then everything changed
Referring to a significant shift in the relationship.
We went our separate ways
Indicating a separation or divergence.
We never knew each other
Emphasizing the lack of mutual understanding.
Always thought it was strange
Perceiving the relationship as peculiar or unusual.
You never acted the same
Observing a change in behavior.
When we would be with others
Noticing a discrepancy in behavior around others.
Always treated me different
Highlighting differential treatment.
I know it's been a long time since we last talked
Acknowledging the passage of a considerable time.
But I wish you well, wish you well
Expressing good wishes despite the past.
I put your secrets in a vault in the back of my mind
Secrecy and trust, placing memories in the past.
I would never tell
Promising not to divulge confidential information.
Never thought it would end up like this when we were just kids
Reflecting on an unexpected turn from childhood.
Now I'm someone else, someone else
Identity transformation over time.
I never thought it made sense to put all our faith
Skepticism about investing faith in uncertain things.
In a wishing well, wishing well
Cautiously questioning reliance on a wishing well.
You wouldn't get it
Highlighting a lack of comprehension.
All of this time
Noting a significant duration of focus.
I was so focused on healing
Emphasizing a personal commitment to healing.
But you don't do that
Observing a different approach to handling emotions.
'Cause nobody taught you
Attributing emotional response to lack of guidance.
To deal with your feelings
Acknowledging a realization about emotional awareness.
I should have known that
Recognizing a failure to anticipate behavior.
I could never expect you
Understanding the impossibility of shared feelings.
To feel the way I do
Acknowledging personal emotional divergence.
I'd never go back
Rejecting a return to previous emotional states.
To the way that you're used to
Rejecting familiarity with the past emotional state.
I know it's been a long time since we last talked
Reiteration of the elapsed time since communication.
But I wish you well, wish you well
Reiterating good wishes despite the past.
I put your secrets in a vault in the back of my mind
Re-emphasizing trust and confidentiality.
I would never tell
Reaffirming the commitment to keeping secrets.
Never thought it would end up like this when we were just kids
Reflecting on the unexpected outcome of the past.
Now I'm someone else, someone else
Confirmation of a changed identity over time.
I never thought it made sense to put all our faith
Reiterating skepticism about relying on uncertain things.
In a wishing well, wishing well
