Lyrics
When we were young
Reflecting on a past time of youth or early days.
I could have looked into your eyes
Expressing the ability to deeply connect through eye contact.
Like lavender
Comparing the depth and softness of the eyes to the scent of lavender.
Softer than the fields at night
Describing the gentleness and calmness similar to nighttime fields.
You and I
Referring to a close relationship between two individuals.
Were like two amber waves at grain
Metaphorically comparing themselves to the beauty and unity of nature's amber waves.
Inseparable
Expressing an inseparable connection between the two.
Until the day the rains came
Signifying a significant change or challenge that altered the relationship.
So tell me when did it change
Seeking clarification about the moment of change in the relationship.
Why did you go away
Questioning the reason for the person's departure.
And tell me, can we be the same
Wondering if it's possible to restore the relationship to its former state.
Cause I don't even know your name
Expressing the emotional distance due to not recognizing or understanding the person anymore.
You
Referring to the person the song is addressed to.
Used to look at me with eyes full of understanding
Recalling a time when the person looked with empathy and compassion.
Now you look at me with eyes so demanding
Describing a change in the way the person looks now, becoming more demanding or harsh.
I don't know how you could be so cruel
Expressing confusion or disbelief about the person's change in behavior.
You took my heart and broke it
Expressing the pain of heartbreak caused by the person.
Left me in this lonely world
Feeling abandoned and isolated in a world without the person.
So tell me when did it change
Reiterating the desire for an explanation regarding the relationship's change.
Why did you go away?
Repeating the inquiry about the person's departure.
And tell me, can we be the same

Cause I don't even know your name anymore

No, I don't know your name

Anymore
