Where Or When
Timeless Moments of Connection: Where and When Love Transcends Memory
Lyrics
It seems we stood and talked like this before
Reflecting on a familiar conversation or encounter
We looked at each other in the same way then
Recalling a shared moment with mutual understanding
But I can't remember where or when
Uncertainty about the specific time or place of the memory
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
Noting the continuity in the choice of clothing
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
Recognizing a familiar smile from a past moment
But I can't remember where or when
Expressing difficulty in pinpointing the exact details
Some things that happen for the first time
Contemplating the repetition of certain experiences
Seem to be happening again
Observing a sense of déjà vu or recurrence
And so it seems that we have met before
Suggesting a previous encounter or connection
And laughed before and loved before
Implies shared moments of laughter and love in the past
But who knows where or when?
Pondering the uncertainty of the specific time or place
When you're awake, the things you think
Linking waking thoughts to dreams and their influence
Come from the dreams you dream
Highlighting the origin of thoughts from dreaming
Thought has wings
Emphasizing the flightiness of thoughts
And lots of things
Suggesting that appearances can be deceiving
Are seldom what they seem
Cautioning about the true nature of things
Sometimes you think you've lived before
Reflecting on the possibility of past lives
All that you live today
Connecting current experiences to past ones
Things you do
Actions having consequences and returning to the doer
Come back to you
Implies a certain predictability in life's cycle
As though they knew the way
Suggesting a mysterious awareness in life events
Oh, the tricks your mind can play!
Acknowledging the unpredictability of the mind
It seems we stood and talked like this before
Reiterating the sense of déjà vu in a conversation
We looked at each other in the same way then
Recalling a shared gaze with similarities to the past
But I can't remember where or when
Reiterating the challenge of remembering details
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
Noting the consistency in clothing choices over time
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
Recognizing a recurring smile from a previous time
But I can't remember where or when
Expressing difficulty in pinpointing the memory
Some things that happen for the first time
Observing the repetition of significant events
Seem to be happening again
Highlighting the sense of events repeating themselves
And so it seems that we have met before
Reiterating a feeling of familiarity and past meetings
And laughed before and loved before
Recalling shared moments of laughter and love
But who knows where or when?
Emphasizing the uncertainty of specific details
And so it seems that we have met before
Reiterating a sense of familiarity in the encounter
And laughed before, and loved before
Recalling shared laughter and love from the past
But who knows where or when?
Emphasizing the ongoing mystery of time and place
