Time Is Softer
Embracing Life's Soft Moments
Lyrics
You know those times when you feel like you'll never win anything
You experience moments of feeling like success is unattainable.
And the more you try to be something
Efforts to define yourself result in feeling like a fraud.
You're just an imposter
A sense of being inauthentic or not living up to expectations.
Going gray feels like an old friend
The process of aging is likened to a familiar but persistent presence.
Just keeps coming to your front door again and again
The challenges of aging consistently resurface in life.
Growing older feels harder than I ever thought it'd be
Growing older proves to be more challenging than anticipated.
Used to climb trees in the moonlight
Reflecting on carefree times, possibly childhood experiences.
Let our worries go free
Recalling times of freedom and lack of worry.
All of my thoughts couldn't get stuck in lost and found
Efforts to avoid being forgotten or overlooked.
Growing older has been tough
The process of aging is acknowledged as difficult.
Time is softer with you
Time is perceived as gentler or more forgiving in the company of a specific person.
Time is softer with you
Reiteration of the idea that time is softened when shared with a particular individual.
We used to say we'd never and now we say you never know
Shift in perspective from certainty to acknowledging uncertainties in life.
Our time spent together has drawn paths
Shared experiences have created divergent life paths.
That lead away from home
Paths formed from shared experiences lead away from the familiar.
Moving away is something I'll only do once
Moving away is considered a one-time event, and the impact is lasting.
And the memories in this new place can't be undone
Memories in a new place are significant and irreversible.
Growing older feels harder than I ever thought it'd be
Growing older continues to present unexpected challenges.
Used to climb trees in the moonlight
Recollection of carefree activities under moonlight.
Let our worries go free
A reminder of letting go of worries during youthful times.
All of my thoughts couldn't get stuck in lost and found
Struggling thoughts aren't easily forgotten and may be misplaced.
Growing older has been tough
Acknowledgment of the difficulty of aging.
Time is softer with you
Time is seen as more forgiving or comforting in the presence of a specific person.
Time is softer with you
Reiteration of the idea that time is softened when shared with a particular individual.
Time is softer with you
-Time is softer with you
Final affirmation that time is perceived as gentler in the company of a specific person.
