Lost Moments in the Sunshine: Sour Widows' Poetic Journey
Lyrics
Did you catch my eye
Expressing whether the person noticed or paid attention to the speaker.
I haven't caught a feeling in a long while
Conveying a lack of recent emotional experiences or connections.
Gonna go for a drive
Deciding to take a drive, possibly as a means to cope or find solace.
And let the time tear me up inside completely
Expecting that the passage of time will intensify emotional turmoil.
It was getting late, someone with your name
Noting a late moment when someone with a specific name entered.
Walked in and nothing much in the room changed
Observing that the entrance of this person had minimal impact on the environment.
I felt lonely somehow
Feeling a sense of loneliness despite the presence of others.
As echoes of you came out of the mouths of strangers
Experiencing a feeling of isolation as the voices of strangers evoke memories of the person in question.
Are you gonna be the one I think of are
Pondering whether this person will occupy the speaker's thoughts.
You gonna be the one I think of
Repeating the contemplation of whether this person will be a significant thought.
You went to clear your mind
Narrating the person's departure to clear their mind.
And found me kissing a cigarette outside
Discovering the speaker engaged in a moment with a cigarette.
Yeah I can't wait for heaven to smile and open wide and eat me alive
Expressing anticipation for a blissful moment, metaphorically described as heaven, despite potential consequences.
Are you gonna be the one I think of are
Reiterating the question of whether this person will be a predominant thought.
You gonna be the one I think of
Repeating the contemplation of whether this person will be a significant thought.
I thought I was the only one
Expressing a previous belief that the speaker was the only significant one to this person.
Just a moment alone in the sunshine
Describing a moment of solitude in the sunshine.
Just a moment ago in the sunshine
Emphasizing the recent nature of the moment of solitude in the sunshine.
