Lyrics

There's a song I love that I want you to hear

Expressing the desire to share a beloved song with someone.

It's one I wish I wrote, been stuck in my ear

Wishing to have written the mentioned song due to its impact.

They say, "kids today, they don't understand"

Commentary on the perception that today's youth may not grasp certain things.

But you and me, we got a different plan

Highlighting a unique plan or perspective shared between the speaker and the listener.


Meet you at the park by the Queen Anne's lace

Setting a meeting place with nature imagery, Queen Anne's lace being a specific location.

Where the sun in the trees paint you a dappled face

Describing a picturesque scene with the sun casting patterns on the speaker's face.

Close our eyes and let the music in

Suggesting a moment of sensory immersion, closing eyes to let music and nature in.

Open our hearts, feel the breeze on our skin

Encouraging openness and connection with the environment, feeling the breeze.


Ohh.. do you feel the way I'm feeling?

Posing a question about shared emotions and experiences.

Ohh... what's it all revealing?

Expressing curiosity about the revelations or insights gained from the shared experience.

Life's got you reeling

Acknowledging life's challenges and upheavals.

I wanna rest in this beauty

Expressing a desire to find solace and repose in the beauty of the moment.

Tell me I'm not dreaming

Seeking affirmation that the beauty experienced is real and not a dream.


'Wish I could pull off an old-time hat

Expressing a wish to adopt a classic or timeless style.

Nowadays they don't make 'em like that

Noting a perceived decline in the availability of certain timeless items.

You can have anything in the world for cheap

Commenting on the accessibility of material possessions in the modern world.

I want something to last, and something to keep

Expressing a desire for enduring and meaningful things in contrast to the disposable.


Ohh.. do you feel the way I'm feeling?

Repeating the question about shared feelings and experiences.

Ohh... what's it all revealing?

Reiterating the curiosity about the revelations or insights from the shared experience.

Life's got you reeling

Reiterating the acknowledgment of life's challenges and upheavals.

I wanna rest in this beauty

Reiterating the desire to find solace and repose in the beauty of the moment.

Tell me I'm not dreaming

Repeating the plea for affirmation that the beauty experienced is not a dream.


Rent is due, the bills unpaid

Describing financial difficulties such as unpaid rent and bills.

But the sun's got everybody out today

Contrasting the financial worries with the uplifting atmosphere caused by the sun.

Sitting on the edge, dipping our toes

Depicting a carefree moment, sitting on the edge and dipping toes, possibly in water.

The river doesn't worry bout getting old

Reflecting on the timeless and untroubled nature of a river.


Ohh.. do you feel the way I'm feeling?

Reiterating the curiosity about the revelations or insights from the shared experience.

Ohh... what's it all revealing?

Reiterating the acknowledgment of life's challenges and upheavals.

Life's got you reeling

Reiterating the desire to find solace and repose in the beauty of the moment.

I wanna rest in this beauty

Repeating the plea for affirmation that the beauty experienced is not a dream.

Tell me I'm not dreaming

Final plea for confirmation that the beautiful moment is real.
