Lyrics
Staring out the window
Expressing a contemplative state while looking out of a window.
Waiting to see the postman
Anxiously anticipating the arrival of the postman, likely for a letter.
I long for your lovely words
Expressing a desire for affectionate words from someone special.
Covering the envelope
Protecting the letter, possibly emphasizing its importance.
My words are on a postcard, but they should be in your ears
Acknowledging the limitation of words on a postcard compared to direct communication.
I remember like it was yesterday, but it feels like it's been years
Contrasting the perception of time—feeling like both yesterday and years have passed.
Since I saw you; now there's space between us-miles and miles of land-
Expressing physical distance and separation from a loved one.
And there's so much more that I could say, but for now, I just wanna hold your hand
Desiring to express more feelings but, for now, longing for physical closeness.
I miss the sweetest timbre
Missing the unique quality of the loved one's voice.
Of your voice when you speak
Highlighting the impact of the loved one's voice on the speaker.
Your words live inside my head
Emphasizing the lasting impact of spoken words in the mind.
And sing my favorite melody
Metaphorically stating that the loved one's words create a cherished melody.
My words are on a postcard, but they should be in your ears
Reiterating the inadequacy of a postcard to convey deep emotions.
I remember like it was yesterday, but it feels like it's been years
Reflecting on the perception of time and the emotional distance since last meeting.
Since I saw you; now there's space between us-miles and miles of land-
Reiterating the physical separation and vast distance between the speaker and the loved one.
And there's so much more that I could say, but for now, I just wanna hold your hand
Expressing a desire for physical connection despite unspoken emotions.
This cursed distance
Describing the challenging and enduring nature of the physical separation.
Lasts and withers with the weather
Linking the duration of separation to the changing weather, symbolizing hardship.
But for now, your lovely letters
Finding solace in the uplifting effect of receiving letters despite the distance.
Make it all just so much better
Letters from the loved one alleviate the difficulty of the separation.
My words are on a postcard, but they should be in your ears
Emphasizing the discrepancy between a postcard and direct communication.
I remember like it was yesterday, but it feels like it's been years
Revisiting the memories of the past, feeling both recent and distant.
Since I saw you; now there's space between us-miles and miles of land-
Continuing to express the physical and emotional distance between the speaker and the loved one.
And there's so much more that I could say, but for now, I just wanna hold your hand
Reiterating the desire for physical closeness despite unspoken emotions.
Ba da da da da da da
Using nonsensical sounds to convey emotions that words might fail to express.
Da da da da da da da
-Ba da da da da da da
-Ba da da da da da da
-My words are on a postcard, but they should be in your ears
Repeating the theme of postcard inadequacy for conveying deep emotions.
I remember like it was yesterday, but it feels like it's been years
Reflecting on the passage of time and the emotional distance since last meeting.
Since I saw you; now there's space between us-miles and miles of land-
Emphasizing the enduring physical separation and vast distance.
And there's so much more that I could say, but for now, I just wanna hold your hand
Expressing a desire for physical connection despite unspoken emotions.
