Memories of You
Bryan Lazar Lyrics

Hello,
The persona is greeting someone they haven't seen for a while

I know it's been some time
Acknowledgement that it has been a while since they saw the person

But it's kind of funny running into you
The persona finds it ironic that they ran into the person they were just thinking about

Oh you know,
A rhetorical question asking if the person remembers what happened between them

Well this and this and that
A vague reference to the events and situations that have happened between them

Can we cut the bullshit
A plea to stop beating around the bush and get down to business

Skip straight to the facts
The persona wants to have an honest and open conversation

It's true
Admission of the fact that the persona misses the person they are speaking to

I guess that I miss you
The persona is admitting that they miss the person

Let go
The persona is encouraging the other person to let go of their past grievances

Of all the things you know
The persona is asking the other to forget all that they know and move on

And just take my hand and
The persona wants to help the other move on and take the next step with them

Let's jump in the lake
An expression to be spontaneous and have fun together

Cuz I know
The persona knows that with the other person, they will feel complete

With you here by my side
The persona feels that they are better with the person around them

I feel like my world is two
The persona feels that their world is incomplete without the other person

It's all that I can take
The persona is overwhelmed with their feelings for the other person

But still, yeah still
Despite all of their emotions, there are still unresolved issues between them

We can't seem to figure it out
Both of them cannot seem to find a solution to the problems between them

And still, yeah still
Despite everything that has happened, the persona still thinks about the other person

We don't know what it's all about
Neither of them understands the reasons why they feel the way they do about each other

Like all the things I can't explain
The persona feels that there are aspects of their relationship that they cannot comprehend

With you and all I've said
The persona reflects on the things they have said to the other person over time

With memories and blank CD's
The persona has memories of the person and could have made music CDs that are associated with those memories

And my thoughts up in my head
The persona is still thinking about the person all the time

So I'll just sit and wonder why
The persona admits to being confused and contemplative about their feelings towards the other person

I do the things I do
The persona is unsure why they act the way they act when it comes to the other person

And never let my treasures go
The persona finds it hard to let go of the moments they shared with the other person

My memories of you
The persona's memories of the other person are valuable to them and they don't want to forget them

And all the things you can't explain
The persona thinks that the other person might be facing similar uncertainties as themselves

From advice and what you've read
The persona thinks that the other person might have sought advice and read up on issues they were facing together

From thoughts of I and tears in eyes
The persona feels that the other person might be thinking about them and feeling emotional like themselves

When you're lying in your bed
The persona believes that the other person is also thinking about their relationship during their private moments

So we'll just sit and wonder why
Both of them are unsure about the nature of their relationship and their feelings towards each other

We do the things we do
Neither of them can explain why they act the way they do around each other

Memories of you
Both of them hold memories of each other that are significant and they don't want to forget
