Lyrics

We let go for a moment, how does it feel now?

We released our grip for a brief moment, how does the experience feel now?

To be young and innocent, is it over now?

Reflecting on the time of youth and innocence, is that phase now concluded?

Wrote our names in the soft sand

We inscribed our names in the soft sand.

Hoping it would last

Hoping that the written names would endure.

Never saw where the time goes

We were unaware of how time passed swiftly.

How it's gone so fast?

Expressing surprise at the speed with which time has elapsed.


Don't tell me what you're feeling

Requesting not to share emotional feelings, as the speaker likely shares those emotions.

'Cause I probably feel it too

The speaker empathizes with the emotions being felt.

I can't handle one more lover

Expressing an inability to handle additional romantic entanglements.

I don't want anything to lose

The speaker desires not to lose anything.


Hopeless we wrote, all that we know

Describing a feeling of hopelessness and acknowledging what is known.

We've grown too old, to fix what we broke

Acknowledging that they have become too mature to repair what has been damaged.

And all that we spoke was written in stone

Stating that everything they communicated is now a permanent part of their history.

I couldn't keep your secrets afloat

Admitting an inability to keep someone else's secrets confidential.

Tell me, is it you? Is it you? Is it you?

Questioning if the current situation is the result of the actions of the person being addressed.


Leave our love on the high road

Deciding to leave their love on a positive note.

Is it all for now?

Questioning if everything is just temporary for now.

To realize that we both know

Realizing that both parties are aware that their time together has concluded.

That our times run out

Placing faith in positive outcomes despite acknowledging the end of their time.

Put our faith in the blue skies

Having faith in optimistic possibilities represented by the blue skies.

So I know there's hope

Expressing hope due to belief in a positive future.

Take a breath as we make eyes

Pausing and making eye contact, possibly in a moment of connection.

But we'll never know

Admitting uncertainty about the future despite hopeful moments.


Don't tell me what you're thinking

Requesting not to disclose thoughts, as the speaker likely shares those thoughts.

'Cause I probably think it too

The speaker understands and likely shares the thoughts being considered.

I can't take another lover

Expressing an incapacity to handle additional romantic involvements.

I don't want to face the truth

Expressing a reluctance to confront an unpleasant truth.
