History
Beren Olivia Lyrics

Lines are on your face
There are physical marks on your face that represent the different events in our life story.

Mapping out our life story
The lines on your face map out the different experiences we've shared together in our life.

Your smile is just a fake
Your smile is not genuine and there is an underlying tension between us.

Chasing down our old glory
We are trying to recapture the happiness and success we had in the past.

Is this honestly the best we can do
We question whether our current situation is the best we can achieve.

So why does it feel like it's so far away this me and you
Although we are physically close, emotionally we feel distant from one another.

You've been missing me
You have been longing to reunite with me.

We've got history
We have shared experiences and memories together.

Written like a tattoo onto my mind
Our history is ingrained in my memory forever.

All over my white dress like your red wine
Our history has stained and marked our lives, just like how red wine stains a white dress.

Memories are fading and maybe that's why
Our memories of our shared history are beginning to fade, which may be the reason we long for each other.

I can't help but smile when I'm
I can't stop myself from smiling when I think about

Thinking bout those rooftop days
The days we spent together on rooftops

When you'd tell me 'bout your past
When you confided in me about your history

Thinking that your future's me
Believing that we have a future together

And I know we said August was the final take
We agreed that our relationship would end in August, but now we're back together.

So tell me how do we decide which rules we can break
We're not sure which of the previous relationship rules we should ignore this time around.

Now I'm driving west crossing over state lines
I'm travelling to see you, driving across state lines.

Making up the days while you're on the redeye
I'm using this time to catch up on the times we've missed while you're travelling.

Ooo oh
This is a melodic interlude.

Ooo got history
We have a shared history and this is significant.

What I'm missing the most are the things that I hate
The things that are missing in my life are the things that caused me pain in the past.

All the sleepless nights and sleepy days
The memories of the restless and tiring nights and days we spent together.

Now we're here for another second chance and
We're back together again, giving our relationship a second chance.

You've been missing me
You have been feeling a strong desire to be with me.

Ooo oh
This is another melodic interlude.

We've got history
Our shared history is something that connects us and is important to our relationship.

You've been missing me
You have been longing to reunite with me.
