Old Time Sake
Longing for Rekindled Moments: 'Old Time Sake' Reflections
Lyrics
Of all the things that you could choose to say
Considering all the possible things you could say
?Baby come home with me for old time sake?
Requesting to return home together for the sake of old times
?Stand by my side and flash me that smile?
Asking to stand beside and display a familiar smile
?Everybody is out tonight?
Observing that everyone is out and about tonight
So I called you up from god knows where
Contacting you from an unknown or unspecified location
Would you lie in bed if I were there
Questioning if you would lie in bed with the singer if they were present
Speak soft, just talk I will listen
Requesting soft conversation and assurance of listening
Don't you dare leave till the morning
Insisting not to leave until morning, highlighting a habit of leaving
Like you always do
Referencing a recurring behavior of leaving in the morning
Follow me down through the streets of the states
Invitation to accompany the singer through the streets of the states
Make up a reason not to come for old time sake
Suggesting to fabricate an excuse for not joining for old times' sake
Nothing in this town could ever change
Expressing a belief that nothing in the town has changed
Except maybe new lines on your face
Except the possibility of new lines (aging) on your face
So I called you up from god knows where
Repeating the attempt to contact from an unknown location
Would you lie in bed if I were there
Reiterating the question of lying in bed if the singer were present
Speak soft, just talk I will listen
Requesting gentle conversation and reaffirming the willingness to listen
Don't you dare leave till the morning
Insisting on not leaving until morning, as mentioned before
Like you always do
Reiterating a recurring pattern of leaving in the morning
