The Reconnection
Peter Broderick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wasn't sure I'd feel
that same fire
It's been a while
since the last time
we were breathing the same air.

But right away I'd find
you're still in pause
I have my kind
and threre's a reason why
we felt many times
and always find a way to meet
always find a way to meet.

Come close to me now... Darling
I wanna smell your hair
I remember your body
but you soul
I do not there.
To recoo, to recooo
Just a little more time... toguether




It will give us a sign
If futher investigation is required.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Peter Broderick's song "The Reconnection" express sentiments of rekindling old relationships and reuniting with a loved one. The opening lines suggest a sense of uncertainty in reconnecting with someone after a long time. The reference to the "same fire" implies a past love or strong emotional connection that may have dimmed over time. The lyricist notes it's been a while since they breathed "the same air," suggesting there has been a geographical or emotional distance between them.


Despite this distance, the singer becomes certain that the person they're reconnecting with is still "in pause." They compare themselves to "my kind" and that "there's a reason why," hinting that they're not quite like anyone else, but this doesn't matter, given that the two of them felt "many times" and always "find a way to meet." This line implies a certain inevitability to their reunion, no matter how long it takes or how far apart they've been.


In the closing stanza, the lyricist pleads with their former love to come closer, yearning to "smell your hair" and be close to them once again. They long to remember more than just the physicality of their relationship but the essence of the person's soul, something that can't be detected with the senses, hence the line "but your soul, I do not there." The song ends with a call to spending more time together, to see if the reunion is worth further investigation. Overall, "The Reconnection" is a song about finding one's way back to a lost love, rekindling an old flame, and seeing whether the connection is still there.
