The Kid That You Loved
Echoes of Love Lost: The Melancholy Journey of 'The Kid That You Loved'
Lyrics
We swore we'd talk every day
We promised to communicate daily.
The morning that I packed up and drove away
The day I left, I recalled your laughter, reminiscent of home.
Your laugh reminded me of home
Your laughter, though familiar, felt different over the phone.
But a laugh is not the same
Laughter loses its essence when communicated through a phone call.
When it's over the phone
Our relationship was strained despite frequent calls.
We were running on empty
We were emotionally drained.
The calls barely helping
Despite efforts, distance affected our emotions negatively.
It's maddening how distance can make feelings strained
Distance made our emotions complicated.
All those miles apart
The physical separation instilled fear and apprehension in us.
Left us scared from the start
Our initial happiness transformed into an unfamiliar feeling.
What had once felt so happy felt strange
Each passing moment created a musical memory.
Each second made a melody
Time together became musical notes forming beautiful memories.
Minutes formed symphonies
The duration of our togetherness comprised wonderful experiences.
The months that we shared
All that we once cherished turned into what we lost.
Filled with wonderful memories
I'm the person you loved, but circumstances interfered.
All that we had turned to all we had lost
Your mother was spotted by me in a shop.
I'm just the kid that you loved
I faked happiness and left swiftly upon seeing her.
When the timing was off
Learning about your new relationship affected my happiness.
I saw your mom at the store
I'm not as content now as I was when I was with you.
I put on a smile and then I went for the door
We were emotionally drained.
Cuz I heard you found someone new
Despite efforts, distance affected our emotions negatively.
And I am not nearly as happy as I was with you
Distance made our emotions complicated.
We were running on empty
The physical separation instilled fear and apprehension in us.
The calls barely helping
Our initial happiness transformed into an unfamiliar feeling.
It's maddening how distance can make feelings strained
Each passing moment created a musical memory.
All those miles apart
Time together became musical notes forming beautiful memories.
Left us scared from the start
The duration of our togetherness comprised wonderful experiences.
What had once felt so happy felt strange
All that we once cherished turned into what we lost.
Each second made a melody
I'm the person you loved, but circumstances interfered.
Minutes formed symphonies
Your mother was spotted by me in a shop.
The months that we shared
I faked happiness and left swiftly upon seeing her.
Filled with wonderful memories
Learning about your new relationship affected my happiness.
All that we had turned to all we had lost
I'm not as content now as I was when I was with you.
I'm just the kid that you loved
We were emotionally drained.
When the timing was off
Despite efforts, distance affected our emotions negatively.
Oooooo
Distance made our emotions complicated.
Oooooo
The physical separation instilled fear and apprehension in us.
Oooooo
Our initial happiness transformed into an unfamiliar feeling.
I'm just the kid that you loved
Each passing moment created a musical memory.
