Secret love
Stanley Black His Piano And Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Things you do come back to yous as if they knew the way
On, the tricks your mind can play
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But i can't remember where or when
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again and so it seems we have met before
And laughed before and loved before but who knows where or when
The song Secret Love by Stanley Black His Piano, and Orchestra is a beautiful exploration of the mysterious and sometimes inexplicable nature of memory and the human mind. The lyrics speak of how sometimes we feel we have lived before, and how the things we do seem to come back to us as though they already knew the way. The tricks our minds can play are expressed through a sense of deja vu where we find ourselves experiencing the same feelings and emotions we had in the past as if they were happening for the first time, blurring the lines between past, present, and future.
The song goes on to express a similar sense of familiarity with another person, as if they had met before, and everything seems to be happening again, even though they can't remember where or when. The clothes they wore, the smile they smiled, and the way they looked at each other as if they had known each other before, all hint at a deeper connection of shared experiences and feelings. The lyrics beautifully capture the timeless and unexplainable quality of love, and how it can feel like a secret that only two people can understand.
