Sweet Memories
Derik Fein Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Deep inside my soul
I know that we
Are meant to be
Safe between my arms
Stay just where you are
My darling
Oh oh oh
Loves a slot machine
But take a risk on me
And go all in don't be scared
I'll forever be
In love with every piece
Of you my baby
Do you think of me driving past the bar
On that cold dark night held you in my arms
Cause I knew that I
Could spend my life
Loving you
Things I should've said
Haunting Skeleton
Rip to me
Oh I hope you're doing fine
And have some peace of mind
My Baby
Oh oh oh
Loves a slot machine
But take a risk on me
And go all in don't be scared
I'll forever be
In love with every piece
Of you my baby
Oh oh oh
Do you think of me driving past the bar
On that cold dark night held you in my arms
Cause I knew that I
Could spend my life
Loving you
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
Oh
Sweet memories
Somewhere in the stars
The opening lines of the song set a romantic mood with the mention of stars and deep within the soul. The singer believes that he and his love interest are meant to be together, and the image of being safe between his arms and staying just where she is, shows how he wants to cherish this moment forever. The next set of lyrics bring in the theme of risk and taking a chance on love. Love, according to the singer, is like a slot machine, but he urges his lover to take a risk on him and not be afraid to go all in. He promises to love every piece of her, and this is a beautiful expression of love - accepting someone completely without any conditions.
The second verse talks about the past and how certain things were left unsaid. The metaphor of "haunting skeleton" suggests that these thoughts have been constantly on the singer's mind and are a source of regret. He hopes that his love interest is doing fine and has some peace of mind. The last few lines repeat the chorus and the mention of sweet memories shows how the singer wants to hold on to these special moments and cherish them forever.
