Lyrics
Time goes by
Time passes
But you never seem to notice till it leaves
A lack of awareness of time until it's gone
The leaves
Referring to the season of fall
And they fall to the ground
Symbolizing change and endings
But you're here with me now
The present moment with the singer and the listener
In our hometown
Their shared place of origin
Watching the sunrise
Observing the beginning of the day
Through your eyes
Seeing the sunrise through the listener's perspective
And suddenly
A sudden shift in perception of time
Time seems to freeze
The feeling of time standing still
So I'm pinning this moment to my memory
Capturing and preserving the moment mentally
Yes I'm pinning this moment to my memory
Reiteration of preserving the moment
Free as I'll ever be
Expressing a sense of freedom in the moment
Slow dance with me
Invitation to engage in a slow dance
So I'm pinning this moment to my memory
Repeating the act of mentally capturing the moment
Yes I'm pinning this moment so slow dance with me
Encouraging the listener to join in a slow dance
I'm pinning this moment to my memory
Continued emphasis on preserving the moment
Yes I'm pinning this moment so slow dance with me
Reiteration of the invitation to slow dance
