Where or When
Rat Pack Lyrics

It seems we stood and talked like this before
It feels like we've had this same conversation before

We looked at each other in the same way then
We had the same kind of eye contact before

But I can't remember where or when
I can't recall the exact place and time this happened

The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
You're wearing the same outfit as last time we met

The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
I remember that same smile from our previous encounter

But I can't remember where or when
I still can't pinpoint the specific time and location of our previous meeting

Some things that happened for the first time
Occasionally, things that were new to us before

Seem to be happening again
Resurface and feel like we've experienced them before

And so it seems that we have met before
It appears as though we have crossed paths before

And laughed before, and loved before
Shared happy moments and maybe even romantic feelings in a previous encounter

But who knows where or when?
But it's unclear when or where this could have happened

Some things that happened for the first time
Once again referring to experiences that were once novel

Seem to be happening again
Contemplating how these experiences keep repeating

(I can't remember, my darling, I can't remember when)
(Expressing that even with someone dear to them, they still can't recall the details of their previous encounter)

And so it seems that we have met before
Once again, there's a sense that they've met previously

And laughed before, and loved before
Reiterating that they must have shared pleasant moments and affection in an unknown past

But who knows where or when?
Despite their sense of familiarity, there's no certainty about where and when they previously met
