Evergreen Memories: A Nostalgic Journey Through Time
Lyrics
Words keep falling out as we're sitting side-by-side in your car
Expressing how words are freely shared while sitting together in a car.
There's contentment in our gazes
Describing the satisfaction and happiness reflected in their mutual gaze.
Coming back, I remember how we ruled this place
Recalling a time when they had control and influence over the surroundings.
Try to fit ten years in three hours
Attempting to relive and compress a decade of experiences into a short time.
Back when our time ran on so timelessly
Reflecting on a period when time seemed abundant and unhurried.
Drive fast on roads we know, back when we didn't know
Driving quickly on familiar roads, reminiscent of a time of innocence and ignorance.
These swings would watch us grow, and they've made us who we are so
Connecting growth to childhood memories associated with swings.
Coming back, the memories overflow
Returning triggers an overflow of nostalgic memories.
Oh, a safe haven where we could be just kids
Describing a place where they could be carefree and childlike.
Remember last goodbye we swore to be friends for forever
Recalling a commitment made during a farewell, promising eternal friendship.
And on each step up, take in that mountain view
Taking in the view from a height as a metaphor for overcoming challenges.
I know you'll do good
Expressing confidence in the other person's ability to succeed.
We're evergreen, I'll always miss you too
Stating a lasting connection and missing each other despite changing circumstances.
So we fill each other in on our hopes and dreams
Sharing aspirations and dreams with each other.
Different from when we
Noting changes in dreams since the past.
Whispered 'bout who that boy liked among us
Recalling moments of discussing crushes and relationships in secrecy.
Passing notes, hoping teachers never caught us
Remembering the innocence of passing notes and avoiding teachers' attention.
Breathe in the air so fresh, where we burned up a mess
Breathing in the fresh air, reminiscent of a time when mistakes were made.
Now we're back here again
Returning to a familiar place from the past.
For a minute, let's play pretend
Suggesting a temporary escape into imagination and nostalgia.
Oh, a safe haven where we could be just kids
Repeating the idea of a safe haven for carefree childhood moments.
Remember last goodbye we swore to be friends for forever
Reiterating a commitment made during a goodbye, emphasizing lasting friendship.
And on each step up, take in that mountain view
Recalling the mountain view as a symbol of overcoming challenges.
I know you'll do good
Expressing confidence in the friend's ability to succeed.
We're evergreen, hope you feel the same way too
Stating a lasting connection and expressing mutual feelings of missing each other.
Standing on the street, I feel something
Feeling a sense of nostalgia or emotion while standing on the street.
It's just a breeze
Clarifying that the emotion is just a passing breeze.
But I see us in third grade, thinking we'd never break
Recalling a moment in third grade, believing that their bond would never break.
And I said, see you in ten years
Ending with a promise to meet again after ten years.
