Karma Wears White Ties Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never thought you could
I never wanted to
But there you were again
I felt, I felt you close
I always knew you could
I always wanted to
Aging flowers feel like
I´m breathing into smokes at night
You hear my way behind (...)
Hello, you
Aging flowers feel like
I don´t know if I want to cry
I´m staying up to feel you by
Hello, you
I was, I was alone
I never thought you could
I never wanted to
But there you were again
I felt, I felt you close
I always knew you could
I always wanted to
But you were never home
Aging flowers feel like
I´m breathing into smokes at night
You hear my way behind (...)
Hello, you
Aging flowers feel like
I don´t know if I want to cry
I´m staying up to feel you by
Hello, you
Hello, you
Oh, the lights
I´m waiting for
I´m waiting for
Hello, you
The lyrics "I was, I was alone, I never thought you could, I never wanted to, but there you were again" seem to suggest a reunion or a chance encounter with someone who the singer did not expect to see or did not want to see again. However, in the next lines "I felt, I felt you close, I always knew you could, I always wanted to, but you were never home" it becomes clear that this person was absent for a long time, possibly indicating a sense of longing or missing them.
The chorus "Aging flowers feel like I'm breathing into smokes at night, you hear my way behind (...) Hello, you / I don´t know if I want to cry, I´m staying up to feel you by, Hello, you" could be interpreted as the singer feeling overwhelmed with emotions upon seeing this person again, unsure whether to cry or to stay up and keep the feeling of their presence. The metaphor of "aging flowers" suggests a sense of impermanence or fleetingness, like the fragility of life, and the line "breathing into smokes at night" could evoke a sense of temporary relief or fleeting pleasure.
Overall, the lyrics to "Flowers" by Karma Wears White Ties seem to express a sense of deep emotion, possibly longing or bittersweet nostalgia, over the theme of reconnecting with a person from the past.
