Time Change
Echoes of Change: Nostalgia and Heartache in Taylor Smith's 'Time Change'
Lyrics
Standing in my folks garage
Reflecting on a location, specifically in a garage, possibly holding sentimental value.
Off nine oh three in LaGrange
Providing the exact location (903 in LaGrange) to set the scene.
Surrounded by sounds and whispers
Experiencing an atmosphere filled with various sounds and soft voices.
Of falling rain
Noticing the soothing sound of raindrops, suggesting a reflective or contemplative mood.
I think of some girl that I used to know
Recalling memories of a past relationship with a girl.
Times sure have changed and the flowers have started to grow
Expressing the inevitability of change and growth over time.
The nights spent with you well I'll never forget
Remembering intimate moments spent together, particularly during the night.
The look in your eyes and the way your hair fell in your face
Highlighting specific details like the look in the eyes and the way hair fell, suggesting the depth of the connection.
The thought of you lingers dancing round in my brain
Describing persistent thoughts of the person, lingering in the mind.
I try to forget you and go on about my day
Struggling to move on from the memories, attempting to go about daily life.
I can't seem to forget that you're gone
Expressing difficulty in forgetting the person who is no longer present.
I can't explain just how things went wrong
Feeling unable to provide a clear explanation for the deterioration of the relationship.
Spring has come again
Acknowledging the arrival of spring, a season associated with renewal.
Yes and I'll be the one leaving
Anticipating a departure, possibly from the past or the relationship.
Before you feel the kiss of the summer wind
Suggesting a decision to move on before facing the intensity of emotions represented by the "summer wind."
Standing in my folks garage
Repeating the scene in the garage, emphasizing the importance of this location in the narrative.
Off nine oh three in LaGrange
Reiterating the specific location in LaGrange, adding continuity to the setting.
Surrounded by sounds and whispers
Re-experiencing the atmospheric sounds, bringing the narrative full circle.
Of falling rain
Recalling the calming effect of falling rain, possibly indicating a sense of closure or acceptance.
