Strange feeling
Jack M. Senff Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Strange feeling in my head
Like I’ve been here before...
The dim glow of a train platform
Listening for the rumble of a storm
Two boys fall into the gloom
Was this the last time I saw you?
Strange feeling in my head
Like I’ve been here before
Counting steps
the concrete stretching on




forever and after
then you’re gone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jack M. Senff's song "Strange Feeling" evoke a sense of déjà vu and nostalgia. The opening line, "Strange feeling in my head, like I've been here before," suggests a feeling of familiarity or a recurrence of past experiences. This feeling intensifies as the singer describes the dim glow of a train platform, creating an atmospheric setting. The mention of listening for the rumble of a storm adds a sense of anticipation and impending chaos.


The next lines introduce two boys falling into the gloom, hinting at a separation or loss. The question, "Was this the last time I saw you?" implies a sense of longing and uncertainty, as if the singer is reflecting on a past relationship that may have ended abruptly. The repetition of the line "Strange feeling in my head, like I've been here before" further emphasizes the cyclical nature of these emotions and experiences.


The final lines of the song depict the singer counting steps on a seemingly endless stretch of concrete, possibly symbolizing the passage of time and the feeling of being stuck in a never-ending cycle. The phrase "forever and after" captures a sense of eternity, as if the singer's memories and emotions are bound to repeat indefinitely. The sudden disappearance of the subject of the song, indicated by the line "then you're gone," suggests a sense of loss and longing.


Line by Line Meaning

Strange feeling in my head
An inexplicable sensation is occupying my thoughts


Like I’ve been here before...
Similar experiences have occurred in the past


The dim glow of a train platform
The faint illumination emanating from a station where trains depart and arrive


Listening for the rumble of a storm
Attentively awaiting the sound of a turbulent weather disturbance


Two boys fall into the gloom
A pair of young individuals descend into obscurity


Was this the last time I saw you?
Could this possibly be the final instance we encountered each other?


Strange feeling in my head
An unfamiliar sensation is present in my thoughts


Like I’ve been here before
Resembling a previous occurrence


Counting steps
Numerating the strides


the concrete stretching on
The solid surface extending endlessly


forever and after
Perpetually and without end


then you’re gone
Subsequently, you are no longer present
