Memories
Echoes of Longing: The Unforgotten Moments in 'Memories'
Lyrics
VERSE 1
Introduction to Verse 1
I don't remember your name
Expressing inability to recall someone's name
Wish I could see your face again
Desire to see the person's face again
CHORUS
Introduction to Chorus
I've got these memories stuck in my head (in my head)
Having persistent memories in the mind
Little things I should have said
Regretting not expressing certain things
If I had known back then (known back then)
If aware back then, a chance to prevent separation
I wouldn't see you again
Anticipating no future encounters
I wish I knew (wish I knew) if you still had these memories too
Expressing a desire to know if the other person remembers
VERSE 2
Introduction to Verse 2
Here's me, I thought I'd seen it all
Feeling experienced and waiting for a call
I've waited here for you to call
Hopeful expectation for a connection
CHORUS

I've got these memories stuck in my head (in my head)

Little things I should have said
Regret over unsaid things (repeated)
If I had known back then (known back then)
If aware back then, a chance to prevent separation (repeated)
I wouldn't see you again
Anticipating no future encounters (repeated)
I wish I knew (wish I knew) if you still had these memories too
Expressing a desire to know if the other person remembers (repeated)
BRIDGE

Late in the summer of last year
Referring to a specific time in the past

And then your love could not be found
Not finding the love, possibly indicating a loss

Expressing a wish for the person to still be present
