Better Then
Timeless Echoes: A Nostalgic Journey through Love's Innocence
Lyrics
Do you remember back to when it all began
Reflecting on the beginning of a relationship
We'd walk so close, always arm in arm
Describing the closeness and unity in the early stages
We'd sit and talk til 3am about almost anything
Recalling deep conversations late into the night
With no idea of what was to come
Lack of awareness about future challenges
Can we go back to when our eyes first met
Expressing a desire to revisit the first gaze
Can we go back to when our eyes said
Highlighting the emotional depth in their eyes
More than words could say
Emphasizing non-verbal communication
And I know since then I've said some things
Acknowledging past mistakes and regretful words
You never want to hear
Recognition of statements that caused pain
Can we go back
Expressing a wish to return to a previous time
Back to when
Nostalgia for a better past
Things were better then
Yearning for a time when things were more positive
There ain't a day goes by that you aren't on my mind
Continuous thoughts about the person
And all those things I should've said and done
Regret over unspoken and undone actions
I told myself that you would always understand
Assuming understanding that may not have existed
What a fool was I to let it come undone
Realization of foolishness in allowing a separation
Can we go back to when our eyes first met
Desiring to relive the initial eye contact
Can we go back to when our eyes said
Reiterating the depth of emotions in their eyes
More than words could say
Stressing the inadequacy of words to express feelings
And I know since then I've said some things
Acknowledging regretful words spoken since then
You never want to hear
Acknowledging topics one would rather avoid
Can we go back
Expressing a desire to rewind time
Back to when
Yearning for a past when things were better
Things were better then
Nostalgia for a period of greater happiness
And you can't send the rain back to the clouds
Using weather metaphors to convey irreversible changes
You can't reverse a sunset just by wishing out loud
Expressing the impossibility of reversing time
You can't make the seasons change from winter back to fall
Highlighting the inability to control life's course
But it's still something I wish for
Expressing a persistent desire for change
Can we go back to when our eyes first met
Revisiting the theme of the initial eye contact
Can we go back to when our eyes said
Reemphasizing the emotional connection in their gaze
More than words could say
Reiterating the limitations of words in expressing emotions
And I know since then I've said some things
Admitting to regretful words spoken over time
You never want to hear
Acknowledging communication difficulties
Can we go back
Expressing a strong desire to revisit the past
Back to when
Yearning for a time when circumstances were better
Things were better then
Reiterating a desire for a more positive past
