Description
It smells like sunshine filtering through the leaves and leaving trembling shadows on your cheeks. Everything seems so simple - the metronome ticks in time with your heart, the keychain with a musical note is lost somewhere between “then” and “now,” and the melody spreads quietly, like a memory you don't want to touch. It seems like everything is over, but inside, that same “togetherness” still resonates.
There is no drama here, only a quiet “everything is fine” - like a spell that is repeated so as not to cry. The song glows from within, like a warm palm covering someone else's trembling fingers. And in this simplicity lies the magic: a little sadness, a little hope, and the feeling that if you cherish the past, it can light the way forward.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Does it mean it's over now?
You never open up, would tell me we're okay
Understand I'm trying now
A momentary time of doubt
Is it really over now?
Stick to my stomach, saying, "I'm sorry"
Maybe we can ride it out
Everything will quiet down
'Cause I won't give up
A fork in the road
Under my skin, you're the scent in my clothes
And I'm waitin', every night prayin' that
I call and maybe you'll pick up
I know that it's been so long
Stay up all night if you would just try this
So I really wanted you to know I miss you
I'm hoping, maybe you want me
I know we were going so good
Stay up all night if you would just try this
So I really wanted you to know I miss you
Could you compromise?
Afraid if I give in, then nobody's tryin'
Who do I gotta be?
It's evident, you don't want me
Take your time, there's no rush
All my love is yours
Lately you're so unsure
It's killin' me, so I'm prayin' that
I call and maybe you'll pick up
I know that it's been so long
Stay up all night if you would just try this
So I really wanted you to know I miss you
I'm hoping, maybe you want me
I know we were going so good
Stay up all night if you would just try this
So I really wanted you to know I miss you
Oh, I really wanted you to know I miss you
(Oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I really wanted you to know
I call and maybe you'll pick up
I know that it's been so long
Stay up all night if you would just try this
So I really wanted you to know I miss you
