When You Touch Me
Kenny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It was a little rundown, the grass was overgrown
Its screen door was opening with the wind
I thought I heard you called my name again.
I wish that I could hold on to the past
'cause everything is changing way too fast
I can't help it long for how it used to be
I finally got that near to go inside
I made it to our bedroom door to cry
I always thought that we could come back home
These empty rooms just prove that I was wrong
The lyrics of Kenny's song "When You Touch Me" convey a sense of longing, nostalgia and regret. The singer of the song stops by his old home, which is now rundown and abandoned. The wind is blowing through the screen door which appears to have just opened. He thinks he heard his former lover call his name again. The house serves as a symbol of his memories of their past life together. The lyrics describe the overpowering feeling of wanting to hold on to a time that has changed beyond recognition. The singer wishes to relive the moments when he was happy and loved, and dreams of a time when things were easy and uncomplicated.
The singer wants to hold onto his memories and relive the moments of his past, but he knows that he can't go back. The longing for the past overwhelms him and he cries at the bedroom door. He always thought that he and his lover would come back home and be together again, but the empty rooms prove otherwise. The song is a poignant reminder of how we long for a time that has passed, and how we must accept change and move on.

I stopped by the house we called our home
I came to the place where we used to live together
It was a little rundown, the grass was overgrown
The house looked neglected and the lawn was unkempt
Its screen door was opening with the wind
The wind was opening and closing the screen door
I thought I heard you called my name again.
I had the feeling that I heard you calling my name
I wish that I could hold on to the past
I want to keep the memories of the past
'cause everything is changing way too fast
Because everything is changing very quickly
I can't help it long for how it used to be
I can't stop myself from longing for the way things were
When you were here and you were loving me.
When you were here and we were in love
I finally got that near to go inside
I finally gathered the courage to go inside
I made it to our bedroom door to cry
I walked to our bedroom and cried
I always thought that we could come back home
I always believed we could return to our home together
These empty rooms just prove that I was wrong
The empty rooms show that I was mistaken
