Miss You
Garden City Movement Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Though I know you're here somewhere
Lost myself in here for hours
With the thought that you are near
Half the globe just not to meet you
Guess I'll have to change my plans
""The hand is gone that cropt it's flowers""
There's no beauty in my scams
Did I really cross this way
Just not to hear you say
""Hold to moments as they go by""
Lonely under Shimokita sky
I miss you
Still recall on your bizarre dream
You were surfing on your own
Scared but don't want to be saved no
Leaving my to reign alone
Miles away just not meet you
Though I know you're here somewhere
Dazed and hurt with time against me
So strange how I used to care
Did I really cross this way
Just not to hear you say
""Hold to moments as they go by""
Lonely under Shimokita sky
I miss you
The lyrics to Garden City Movement's "Miss You" can be interpreted as a reflection on the pain of distance and the struggle to let go of a past relationship. The singer seems to be physically far from their loved one, possibly traveling halfway across the world to escape the pain of their absence. The reference to "The hand is gone that cropt it's flowers" may symbolize the loss of something beautiful in the singer's life, possibly their relationship with the person they miss.
The lyrics also speak to a feeling of isolation and loneliness. The singer recalls a dream where their loved one was surfing alone, and seems to feel left behind and forgotten. The repetition of the line "I miss you" throughout the song emphasizes the singer's longing for their loved one, and the pain they feel at their absence.
Overall, "Miss You" is a poignant and introspective song that explores the complex emotions of longing and loss in the context of a past relationship.
