Lyrics
Wounded soul
Expressing emotional pain or distress in the inner self.
Got a hold on me
Experiencing a strong influence or grip on one's emotions or thoughts.
Haven't seen you though
Not encountering the person recently.
We were kids last week
Reflecting on a recent past when both were youthful.
Still I meet you oh
Encountering the person in dreams, creating a sweet experience.
In my dreams so sweet
Describing the dreams as pleasant and emotionally positive.
Wouldn't tell you that
Choosing not to disclose or share feelings, perhaps due to discomfort.
I'd sound so creepy
Acknowledging that expressing certain feelings might come across as unsettling.

Out in the country
Specifying the location of the person's current activities.
Weird thing is I swear
Perceiving a sense that the person still thinks about the speaker.
I feel you think of me
Expressing uncertainty about the depth of the person's thoughts towards the speaker.

Or in that back seat
Mentioning a memorable location, the back seat, where significant events may have occurred.
Darling where you go
Expressing a sense of loss or absence of the person in the present.
Well now there you've been
Noticing the person's recent activities, possibly moving forward in life.
Back to looking forward now
Observing a shift in the person's focus towards the future.
How could I forget
