Do You Remember
Nostalgic Echoes: Jacob Browne's 'Do You Remember' Unveiled
Lyrics
Take me back to your home town
Expresses a desire to revisit the partner's hometown.
Take a breath I’m feeling drowned
Suggests feeling overwhelmed and needing a moment to breathe.
And shivers down my spine
Describes a physical reaction, possibly to emotions or anticipation.
I’m waiting all the time
Impatiently waiting for something significant.
I never saw your light until I looked in your devil eyes
Discovery of a new aspect or depth in the partner, represented by "devil eyes."
It never seemed so right to leave you way behind
Feeling that leaving the partner behind is the right decision.
Do you remember
Prompt to recall shared memories.
Our surrender
Reflection on a past moment of giving in or yielding.
Kissing in the park in December
Recollection of a romantic moment in December, perhaps a significant time.
Do you remember
A repeated question, emphasizing the importance of remembering.
Feeling better
Recalling a time when things felt improved or positive.
Telling ourselves its forever
Shared belief in the longevity of the relationship.
Baby I don’t
Repetition of uncertainty or denial.
Baby I don’t
-Yo, when your holding my hand
Describes a moment of physical closeness and connection.
Westerns aside and were feeling grand
Recalls a time of shared experiences and exploration.
Testing the signs and were taking the land
-Then you throw me away like a distant man
Expresses a feeling of being discarded or dismissed.
Cos its blinding
Reference to intense emotions or overwhelming feelings.
Sift through my mind rewinding
Reflects on memories, possibly with a sense of fear or apprehension.
Press to the tape so frightening again
-I never saw your light until I looked in your devil eyes
Reiteration of discovering a significant aspect in the partner.
Do you remember
Repetition of past reflections on surrender, kissing, and the perception of forever.

Recollection of shared moments and the struggle to define the relationship's permanence.
