Lyrics
when we were kids
Reflecting on childhood memories
we would hit the ground running wild
Recalling the energetic and carefree nature of youth
all over this dam town now that we're older
Nostalgia for the past in the current stage of life
i still haven't found
Expressing a sense of not fully recovering a past emotion
that old feeling we lost feeling we lost
Emphasizing the persistent absence of a particular feeling
tell me where you go now
Seeking information about the current whereabouts
on the other side
Questioning the unknown or distant aspect of the other person
now that you're all grown up
Acknowledging the process of growing up
thinking that you would never die
Contemplating mortality and the invincibility felt in youth
cuz ive been looking back at the pictures of you and i you were the one i needed
Reviewing past moments with someone significant
now I reach out to you in my darkness
Expressing vulnerability and seeking connection in difficult times
tell you all things i wish that I said
Regret for unspoken words and a desire for communication
back when we were free but never knew it tell me why
Reflecting on the freedom of the past, possibly taken for granted
tell me why
Pleading for an explanation or understanding
you never ever leave my mind
Expressing the constant presence of the person in thoughts
i see you in my dreams at night wish you never left my side
Longing for the person, especially in dreams
where are you now that i need you
Expressing a current need for the person
reaching out
Extending a hand or seeking connection
(i) hope you don't let go all of these memories never really grow old now that i found you
Expressing a hope for the preservation of memories and the value of finding the person
it feels like home
Feeling a sense of belonging and comfort with the person
you were the feeling that i lost feeling that i lost
Reiterating the loss of a particular emotion
picking up the pieces
Reflecting on trying to mend the aftermath of a broken situation
how did they break
Questioning the cause of the breakdown
now that i
Expressing the current perspective after gaining a new chance
have another chance to ask if you will/could stay
Contemplating the possibility of the person staying
cuz i've been thinking back if it'd gone a different way you were the one i needed
Reflecting on the potential alternate paths and reiterating the importance of the person
