Remember
Embracing Memories: Finding Purpose Beyond the Past
Lyrics
Comes a day when we'll look beyond this
Reflecting on a future time when we will move beyond the current situation or circumstances.
Past the dreams that rose from dust
Looking back at aspirations that originated from humble beginnings or challenges.
How they caught like wildfire
Acknowledging how those dreams spread rapidly and intensely, much like a wildfire.
How they still got a hold on us
Highlighting the enduring influence those dreams still have on us.
When you listen you'll hear it calling
Suggesting the presence of a subtle calling or inner voice when one pays attention.
The rhythm of an outbound train
Describing the rhythmic allure of a departing train, symbolizing change or departure.
Leave your bags in the hallway closet
Encouraging leaving behind baggage, both literal and metaphorical, before moving forward.
Take a minute to forget your name
Advising to take a moment to detach from one's identity or responsibilities.
And remember
Emphasizing the importance of recalling and holding onto significant memories.
Remember why
Prompting introspection on the reasons or motivations behind actions or decisions.
Won't give in until I know it's over
Expressing determination to persist until a conclusive end is reached.
Though I never thought I'd walk alone
Acknowledging unexpected solo journeys in life, contrary to previous expectations.
Without your hand here on my shoulder
Recognizing the absence of a familiar support system in challenging times.
I'm going to have to make my own way home
Accepting the responsibility to forge one's own path and find a way back home.
Remember, why.
Reiterating the importance of recalling and understanding the underlying motivations.
Remember, why
Re-emphasizing the call to remember and reflect on the reasons behind one's actions.
Can you remember, I still remember why
Posing a question about the ability to remember and holding onto significant memories.
Comes a day when you'll look beyond this
Repeating the idea of looking beyond the current circumstances towards the future.
Past the dreams that rose from dust
Reiterating the notion of dreams originating from challenges or humble beginnings.
How they caught like wildfire
Echoing the rapid and intense spread of dreams, comparing it to a wildfire.
How they still got a hold on us
Affirming the enduring impact of those dreams on individuals or collective experiences.
