Dreams of Yesterday
Echoes of Love Lost: Tiara Chan's Melancholic Reflections
Lyrics
Feels like yesterday, when I still had you
Reflecting on a time that feels like the past when the speaker had a relationship with the person addressed.
Was it just yesterday? Love in the afternoon
Questioning if the referenced time was just recently, recalling love experienced in the afternoon.
Feels like yesterday, now I'm so blue for you
Expressing a current state of sadness and longing for the person mentioned in line 1.
As time goes by, see the crystal teardrops I cry
Noticing tears represented as crystal teardrops as time passes.
Was it just yesterday? When time was on my side
Reflecting on a time when time was favorable, suggesting a change in circumstances.
But you're gone oh oh oh oh
Acknowledging the absence of the person addressed, emphasized by repeated "oh."
All I have are tears
Expressing the emotional state of the speaker, left only with tears.
And the dreams of yesterday
Highlighting the emotional burden of holding onto memories and dreams from the past.
Remember yesterday? Far from heartbreak hotel
Recalling a time distant from heartbreak but now realizing the clarity of the situation.
But now it's oh so clear, that I could never really tell
Understanding that the speaker was unable to perceive the reality of the situation at that earlier time.
But now I'm sitting here, staring at the phone on the wall
Describing the current state of waiting, possibly for reconciliation or closure.
Waiting for that very call, that will change it all
Expressing anticipation for a significant call that could bring about a change in the speaker's life.
But you're gone
Reiterating the absence of the person addressed.
Weren't you the one who broke my heart?
Questioning if the person being addressed was the one who caused heartbreak.
And then forgot about all the things we would do
Recalling that the person forgot about shared memories, contrasting with the speaker's inability to forget.
But I could never forget you, because baby it's always been you
Affirming a lasting connection with the person despite the pain caused.
It all seems so surreal, how could you ever forget?
Expressing disbelief at the possibility of the person forgetting the shared experiences.
I've got the blues baby, do you even regret?
Conveying a sense of sadness and questioning if the person regrets their actions.
What you've done oh oh oh
Expressing the impact of the person's actions, with a repeated "oh."
All I have are tears
Reiterating the emotional state of the speaker, left with tears and dreams of the past.
And the dreams of yesterday
Emphasizing the continued presence of dreams from the past.
