Remember Me
5 Days Ahead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you've moved so far away
still i whisper your name
i sent you a postcard
lyrics to our favorite song
you said you never saw it
I'm fading farther away from you
I fly to your satellite sending signals to you
empty space, you're nowhere to be found
whatever road i take seems endless, you're never there
am i gone? will you be there again?
I wish in your heart you'd remember me...
The song "Remember Me" by 5 Days Ahead is an emotional track about a person who misses someone who they used to be close to. The lyrics depict the singer remembering the smile of the person they miss, who has moved far away. Despite the distance, the singer's love for this person is still present, as they whisper their name. The singer attempts to connect with this person by sending them a postcard with lyrics to their favorite song, but the person never acknowledged it, causing the singer to feel even more disconnected from them. The lack of communication and physical distance has caused the singer to feel lost and alone, as they continue to search for this person in the empty spaces of their life. They question whether they are the one who has gone, or if the person they miss is the one who has disappeared from their life. The song ends with the singer wishing that this person would remember them, hoping to reignite the love that they once shared.
