Love Like That
Rediscovering Innocence: A Journey Through Love Like That
Lyrics
We held hands in the backseat
We shared a physical connection, holding hands in the backseat of a vehicle.
As we drove to the coast
We were on a journey to the coast together.
Hoping your parents wouldn't notice
We hoped that your parents wouldn't notice our connection or relationship.
The world felt so big
The world seemed vast and full of possibilities.
But we were so small
Despite the world's vastness, we felt small and vulnerable.
We were just kids back then
During that time, we were just kids.
A whole life to live but we were stuck in the moments
We had our whole lives ahead, but we were stuck in those fleeting moments.
Never looking back because we were hoping for the next thing
We didn't dwell on the past, always looking forward to the next experience.
I wanna love like that
Expressing a desire to experience a love similar to the past.
Take it back
Reflecting on the past and wanting to go back to it.
When the pieces of our innocence were still intact
Yearning for a time when our innocence was still intact.
Wanna love like that
Expressing a desire to experience a love similar to the past (repeated).
Take it back
Reflecting on the past and wanting to go back to it (repeated).
Before the default of love was always backtrack
Before love became complicated and required retracing steps.
We put blankets on rooftops as we watch the sunset
Creating memories by placing blankets on rooftops and watching the sunset.
Memories we'll never forget
Emphasizing the significance of unforgettable memories.
'Til we grew up too fast and
We matured quickly, and suddenly our relationship wasn't sustainable.
And suddenly we weren't enough to last
Our connection couldn't withstand the challenges as we grew up.
I wanna love like that
Expressing a desire to experience a love similar to the past (repeated).
Take it back
Reflecting on the past and wanting to go back to it (repeated).
When the pieces of our innocence were still intact
Yearning for a time when our innocence was still intact (repeated).
Wanna love like that
Expressing a desire to experience a love similar to the past (repeated).
Take it back
Reflecting on the past and wanting to go back to it (repeated).
Before the default of love was always backtrack
Before love became complicated and required retracing steps (repeated).
What a year of our lives
Reflecting on a specific year in their lives, from August to the end of July.
August through the end of July
Detailing the time frame of significant events and experiences.
Before it all crashed
Before everything fell apart and derailed.
And we lost track
We lost track of our path.
Maybe memories is all we have
Suggesting that memories may be all that remain.
Maybe growing up is just a part of that
Considering that growing up is an inevitable part of life and its experiences.
But I'm glad it happened
Expressing gratitude for the past, acknowledging that it shaped who they are.
I'm glad you were there
Expressing gratitude for the presence of a significant person during those times.
I'm glad we were happy for at least a year
Appreciating the happiness experienced, even if it was temporary.
But I want more
Expressing a desire for more than the past, a longing for a deeper connection.
I wanna love like that
Expressing a desire to experience a love similar to the past (repeated).
Take it back
Reflecting on the past and wanting to go back to it (repeated).
When the pieces of our innocence were still intact
Yearning for a time when our innocence was still intact (repeated).
Wanna love like that
Expressing a desire to experience a love similar to the past (repeated).
Take it back
Reflecting on the past and wanting to go back to it (repeated).
Before the default of love was always backtrack
Before love became complicated and required retracing steps (repeated).
