Memories of You
Echoes of Love Lost: Parker Rudd's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Wide awake in an empty room
Expressing being fully awake in an empty space.
All alone with the thought of you
Feeling solitude while contemplating thoughts of someone special.
Thought I’d miss you more than I do
Surprising realization that the feeling of missing is less intense than anticipated.
But I kinda like it
Admitting to enjoying the current state of solitude.
Should I try and hide it
Contemplating whether to conceal this newfound liking.
Got drunk and I told you I loved you
Recalling a moment of drunkenly expressing love.
On a night when we stayed out too late
Referencing a night of staying out late together.
Did I really love her cause’ I’m starting now to wonder did I ever feel anything
Questioning the authenticity of past feelings and love.
But even though I gave back your things
Acknowledging the return of belongings after a breakup.
From time to time you walk through my daydream
Not being able to escape thoughts of the person.
Tell me what am I supposed to do
Expressing confusion about what to do in the current situation.
Your friends all say that you’re doing fine
Awareness of others stating that the person is doing well.
I know I told you leave me behind
Recalling a request to be left behind despite current feelings.
But tell me what am I supposed to do
Repeating the dilemma of what actions to take.
With all these memories of you
The burden of carrying memories of the person.
Nights like this when I’m all alone
Describing lonely nights without the person.
3 AM and I check my phone
Checking the phone at an early morning hour, perhaps hoping for a message.
Don’t know what I was expecting
Realizing uncertainty about expectations in checking the phone.
See you out there livin’ life
Acknowledging the ex-partner living their life.
Wish I could say the same but I
Expressing the difficulty of finding what is missing in one's life.
Still haven’t found what I’m missing
Feeling the impact of the partner's absence.
Now you got me up second guessing
Indicating self-doubt and confusion.
Cause even though I gave back your things
Reiterating the return of belongings haunting daydreams.
From time to time you walk through my daydreams
Questioning what to do with persistent memories.
Tell me what am I supposed to do
Reflecting on the well-being of the ex-partner as per others.
Your friends all say that you’re doing fine
Recalling a request for separation despite the current emotional struggle.
I know I told you leave me behind
Reiterating the inner conflict and seeking guidance.
But tell me what am I supposed to do
Repeating the central question about dealing with memories of the person.
I got all these memories of you
Expressing the overwhelming nature of memories.
What am I supposed to do, what am I supposed to do
Repetition of the central question, emphasizing the dilemma.
I got all these memories of you
Continued emphasis on the burden of memories.
What am I supposed to do, what am I supposed to do
Repeated questioning, highlighting the struggle.
I got all these memories of you
Further repetition, emphasizing the weight of memories.
What am I supposed to do, what am I supposed to do
Continued expression of the difficulty in dealing with memories.
I got all these memories of you
Emphasizing the persistent nature of memories.
What am I supposed to do, what am I supposed to do
Reiteration of the central question and the struggle with memories.
And even though I gave back your things
Reaffirmation of the return of belongings and its impact.
From time to time you walk through my daydreams
Repetition of daydreams being influenced by the returned belongings.
Tell me what am I supposed to do
Seeking guidance on how to cope with persistent memories.
Your friends all say that you’re doing fine
Acknowledging the well-being of the ex-partner as reported by others.
I know I told you leave me behind
Recalling a previous request for separation despite current struggles.
But tell me what am I supposed to do
Reiterating the central question about dealing with memories.
With all these memories of you
The final plea for guidance in handling the overwhelming memories of the person.
