Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you came in sight i got that old feeling
The moment you came by i felt a thrill
And when you caught my eye
My heart stood still
Once again i seemed to have that old yearning
And i knew the spark of love was still burning
There'll be no new romance for me
For that old feeling is still in my heart
(Repeat)
The lyrics to Tiny Tim With Brave Combo's song "That Old Feeling" is about the singer sees somebody from their past and they get a rush of emotions, causing them to feel that old feeling of yearning and love. The moment they see this person, they feel a thrill, and their heart stops when the person catches their eye. Essentially, they are saying that even though time has passed since they last saw this person, the feelings they had for them are still present and have not faded away.
The lyrics also suggest that the singer understands that it would be foolish to try and start a new romance because the old feeling of love is still in their heart. This could be interpreted in a few ways, but it could be because they still have unresolved feelings for the person they saw or because the memory of the love they once shared is still fresh in their mind. Either way, the singer is acknowledging that they are not ready to move on.
In conclusion, the song is about the power of memories and how they can affect a person's emotions even after many years. It's a bittersweet reminder that love can be everlasting, and the nostalgia of it can be just as powerful.

When you came in sight i got that old feeling
Upon your arrival and appearance in my view, I experienced that familiar emotion once again
