Journey through Love and Seasons: The Neverminds' Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Counting down the days, til the end of july
Anticipating the end of July and counting down the days.
Soon everything will be nothing but a blur
Expecting that soon everything will become hazy or unclear.
Waiting for the train, don't know when you'll arrive
Waiting for a train without certainty about when it will arrive.
Guess we'll never know where it takes us
Expressing uncertainty about the destination the journey will lead to.
When it all seems to end
Reflecting on a point where everything appears to come to an end.
You'll remind me of the things not to forget
Acknowledging that certain memories are crucial and shouldn't be forgotten.
I can't try and make you stay
Recognizing the inability to force someone to stay against their will.
If you leave me
Accepting the possibility of the person leaving.
But I'll be somewhere on the way
Expressing the singer's assurance of being somewhere along the journey even if the person leaves.
If you need me
Offering availability and support if the person needs the singer.
Do you remember falling asleep
Asking if the person remembers a shared moment of falling asleep.
Wasting time on distant memories
Recalling moments spent idly on distant memories.
Softer sounds, ringing in your ears
Describing the experience of softer, comforting sounds in one's ears.
I'll promise not to fade away
Promising not to disappear or lose importance.
When it all seems to end
Reiterating the importance of remembering key things when facing an end.
You'll remind me of the things not to forget
Repeating the idea that specific memories should not be forgotten.
I can't try and make you stay
Acknowledging the inability to force someone to stay against their will (repeated from line 7).
If you leave me but
Reiterating the acceptance of the possibility of the person leaving (repeated from line 8).
I'll be somewhere on the way
Restating the singer's assurance of being somewhere along the journey even if the person leaves (repeated from line 9).
If you need me
Reiterating availability and support if the person needs the singer (repeated from line 10).
There's no place I would rather be
Expressing contentment with being with the person over any other place.
Than to be with you
Affirming a preference for being with the person.
The seasons will come and go one day
Acknowledging the transient nature of seasons but emphasizing enduring love.
But I'll still love you
Declaring persistent love regardless of the passage of time.
