I Didn't Know What Time It Was
Discovering Love's Timeless Essence in Nat King Cole's Melody
Lyrics
I didn't know what time it was,
I was unaware of the current time.
Then I met you.
My awareness changed upon meeting you.
Oh, what a lovely time it was,
Expressing nostalgia for a beautiful past.
How sublime it was too!
Describing the past as splendid and elevated.
I didn't know what day it was,
I didn't know the day, indicating a lack of orientation.
You held my hand.
Your touch brought clarity and connection.
Warm like the month of May it was,
Comparing the warmth of the moment to the pleasantness of May.
And I'll say it was grand.
Expressing the grandness and splendor of the experience.
Grand to be alive, to be young,
Highlighting the joy of being alive and young.
To be mad, to be yours alone!
Embracing the intensity of emotions and exclusivity in love.
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
Expressing joy in seeing the loved one's face and feeling their touch.
Hear your voice say I'm all your own.
Hearing the affirmation of being the sole possession of the loved one.
I didn't know what year it was,
Uncertainty about the timeframe, life lacking clear direction.
Life was no prize.
Life didn't seem rewarding or valuable.
I wanted love and here it was
Discovering love as the desired fulfillment, emanating from the loved one's eyes.
Shining out of your eyes.
Recognition of newfound wisdom and understanding.
I'm wise,
Claiming wisdom, likely gained through the experiences mentioned.
And I know what time it is now.
Now aware of the current time and circumstances.
I wanted love and here it was
Reiteration of finding love in the other person's eyes.
Shining out of your eyes.
Reassertion of gained wisdom and awareness.
I'm wise,
Reaffirming the current state of wisdom.
And I know what time it is now.
Final acknowledgment of being aware of the present time.
