Wandering
Nao'ymt Lyrics

The first verse of Nao'ymt's "Wandering" describes a moment where the singer encounters someone they had been thinking about for a long time. This person speaks of the future they had imagined together, but before the singer can respond, a gust of spring wind sweeps the words away. The wind can be seen as a metaphor for the fleeting nature of life and relationships. Despite the simplicity of the encounter, it affects the singer deeply, and they are left wandering aimlessly in search of meaning and purpose.

The second verse reflects on a small moment of silence that speaks volumes. The singer had been relying on this small figure, but suddenly they are gone, and the singer is left alone once again. The chorus serves as a reminder that the singer is still wandering, still searching for something they cannot quite define. They have embraced the loneliness, believing they have grown accustomed to it. However, even in this state, they admit to still searching for the person they had encountered.

The third verse describes a world that is mundane and unremarkable, but the absence of this person makes it unbearable. The singer looks down at the ground, but as they do, a gust of wind takes them to a different time and place altogether. The petals of a cherry blossom tree fall, marking the end of something beautiful. The final chorus speaks of the routine of daily life, which is not enough to fill the void left by the lost love. The singer wakes up again tomorrow, still searching for ways to forget, but their love for this person endures.
