Scented Memories: Exploring the Intimate Essence of Olivia Lukes' 'Fragrance'
Lyrics
Catch a fragrance in passing
Capture a scent briefly as you pass by
Wind not meant for this place
The wind is out of place in this setting
Presence not meant to be kept
A presence not intended to be retained
Saw you in a landscape
Encountered you in a picturesque scene
Ink I swear attest your eyes, your hair, your neck
Ink, as if attesting to your eyes, hair, and neck
But I'm doing things for myself now
Focusing on self-growth, prioritizing personal needs
I wanna grow cold in the winter instead
Expressing a desire to endure the cold of winter
Is there a ghost in my mattress
Raising the question of a haunting presence in the bed
I'm shaking in my bed
Experiencing unease or trembling while lying down
And I wanna grow old
Expressing a wish to age
I swear I'll grow old
Promising a commitment to growing old
Overexposed vintage places
Describing places with excessive exposure and a vintage feel
You walk in grained displays
Noticing you in detailed and textured surroundings
I know who you hold in your arms
Aware of the person you hold in your arms
But I'm doing things for myself now
Continuing the focus on self-development
I wanna grow cold in the winter instead
Expressing a desire to endure the harshness of winter
I hate being an actress
Expressing dislike for playing a role or being fake
You're still into that shit
Noting someone's continued interest in insincere behavior
And I wanna grow old
Reiterating the desire to age gracefully
I swear I'll grow old
Promising a commitment to growing old
I wanna grow old
Reiterating the desire to age gracefully
I swear I'll grow old
Promising a commitment to growing old
I'm doing things for myself now
Emphasizing actions taken for personal development
It's never been that way
Highlighting a departure from the past
Springtime surrounding
Noting the presence of springtime
I just got into college
Announcing the entry into college
Why'd I write this song
Pondering the motivation behind writing the song
I wish you wrote this song
Expressing a wish for the listener to have written the song
