Winter Days
Winter Reflections: A Melodic Journey Through Urban Memories
Lyrics
Winter time in the city
Reflecting on the winter season in the city.
The trees stand bare on the avenue
Describing the bare trees lining the avenue.
In the shadow of the new apartment block
Noting the presence of a new apartment block casting a shadow.
On the street where I met you
Recalling the location on the street where the singer met someone.
I crossed the bridge into Jersey
Crossing a bridge into Jersey while heading toward the setting sun.
Heading to the setting sun
Observing Manhattan glowing like a circuit board.
Manhattan glows like a circuit board
Noting the vibrant city lights.
Manhattan I guess you won
Expressing uncertainty or irony about Manhattan's victory.
I-95 What are you doing?
Questioning the purpose or direction while traveling on I-95.
Are you taking me home or away?
Pondering whether the journey is leading home or away.
Will I find you?
Wondering if the person being sought will be found.
Do I want to see you again?
Contemplating whether seeing the person again is desirable.
And would you see me again?
Pondering if the other person would want to meet again.
The two of us talked of love once
Recalling a past conversation about love on a cold day in Soho.
On a frozen Soho Day
Setting the scene of a frozen day in Soho.
But the snow was falling and the moment went
Describing how the snowfall interrupted the moment, and the topic was not revisited.
And we never mentioned it again
Acknowledging the unspoken nature of that past moment.
Now I wonder why I'm going
Expressing uncertainty about the current journey and prolonged stay.
And why I stayed so long
Reflecting on the duration of the stay.
And should I find you?
Contemplating the possibility of finding the person again.
Would I want to see you again?
Questioning the desire to meet the person again.
And would you see me again?
Considering whether the other person would want to meet again.
And maybe I'll go back to London
Contemplating the possibility of returning to London.
Walk the Strand to St Martin's Lane
Imagining walking specific streets in London.
In a haze of pride under a cloudy sky
Describing a state of pride under a cloudy sky.
Ah but then again
Introducing uncertainty or hesitation about the decision.
America sings a hard song
Characterizing America as a place with challenges and hardships.
A never-ending blues
Describing a perpetual state of blues or difficulties.
But England's a dream from years ago
Contrasting England as a dream from the past.
And the past is not for me
Expressing a disinterest in dwelling on the past.
