Lyrics

Must have been that winter cold

Reflecting on a past experience during a cold winter.

That made me set out on my own

Deciding to embark on an independent journey.

I said my goodbyes and left You behind

Saying farewell and leaving someone significant behind.

Growing up is getting old

Acknowledging that maturing feels like the burden of aging.


Bring back the memories

Nostalgia for past experiences.

Bring back that smile because I've outgrown them

Desiring to recapture the joy from the past but realizing it's no longer possible.

Now I remember but everything's changed

Remembering the past, though everything has undergone a transformation.

Still I'm captivated by that face You wear tonight

Despite changes, still enchanted by the familiar presence.


Must have been the April thaw

Attributing a renewed emotional state to the arrival of spring in April.

That made me hunger for Your arms

Longing for emotional comfort and warmth.

You welcomed me back and you held me close

Being welcomed back with open arms and closeness.

Overnights don't seem so cold

Feeling the warmth of togetherness, making overnights more bearable.


Bring back the memories

Revisiting memories from the past.

Bring back that smile because I've outgrown them

Yearning for the return of joy but realizing it's a thing of the past.

Now I remember but everything's changed

Recalling the past despite significant changes.

Still I'm captivated by that face You wear tonight

Remaining captivated by a familiar face despite the passage of time.

Familiar but it looks so new in streetlight - in this light

Finding comfort in the familiar, even though it appears different in new circumstances.
