Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-yeah
고요히 간직해온
마음을 바라보면
한없이 소중한 날들이 펼쳐져 있어
가만히 마주 보다흩어진 숨을 모아
차가운 공기에 온기를 불어넣는다
참 많은 게 그리워져
눈을 감고 조금만 조금만 더
난 여행하듯
기억과 기억 사이로
계절과 계절 사이로
잊혀졌던 순간들
하나하나 떠올려
어제와 오늘 사이로
내일을 감춘 채 난 잠시 눈 감아
발끝에 부서지던
낙엽은 또 어느새
새하얀 눈이 돼 살며시 발을 적실 때
쌓아온 바램들과
꿈들을 감싸 안아
하얗게 번지는 풍경에 너를 담는다
참 많은 게 고마워져
멈춰 서서 조금만 조금만 더
Ooh-uh-yeah
난 여행하듯
기억과 기억 사이로
계절과 계절 사이로
잊혀졌던 순간들
하나하나 떠올려
어제와 오늘 사이로
내일을 감춘 채 난
잠시 눈 감아
차오른 숨 고르듯
추억한 켠에 기대어
지쳤던 마음들을 내쉬면
선명해지는
기억과 기억 사이로
계절과 계절 사이로
남아있는 순간들
흐려지지 않도록
어제와 오늘 사이로
내일을 감춘 채 난
잠시 눈 감아
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-yeah
In "Memories," Tyler.l offers a poignant exploration of nostalgia and the emotional weight carried by memories. The opening lines evoke a sense of quiet reflection, suggesting that the singer has held onto significant feelings and experiences throughout their life. By gazing into their heart and emotions, they uncover days that are imbued with value and richness. This introduces a theme of cherishing the past, with each moment examined closely in a way that reveals the profound nature of personal history. The repetition of "ooh-ooh" serves not only as a melodious backdrop but emphasizes the dreamy, almost ethereal quality of reminiscing—where the past and present intertwine in a soft, introspective atmosphere.
As the song develops, the imagery intensifies. The singer describes gathering their scattered breaths, hinting at the need to reclaim and center themselves against the chill of the world. This metaphor for capturing fleeting moments illustrates a deeper need for warmth and connection. The juxtaposition of "scattered breaths" and "cold air" metaphorically represents the fragility of memories and emotions that often dissipate if not acknowledged. In drawing warmth from their nostalgia, the singer seems to breathe life back into these memories, finding solace and comfort within the recollections. This act of gathering thoughts and feelings highlights the restorative power of memory, offering a refuge from the outside world's harshness.
The song further delves into an introspective journey, likening the act of remembering to a travel experience—one that takes place not in physical spaces but in the realm of time and emotion. The lyrics describe traversing through seasons and memories, suggesting a cyclical nature of experiences that shape who we are. Each recalled moment—once lost to the passage of time—now emerges like vivid snapshots, precious yet bittersweet. This journey evokes not only gratitude for the past but also an urgency to retain these fading memories. The lyrics encapsulate how life is a tapestry woven from diverse experiences, each one essential to understanding the self.
Ultimately, Tyler.l's "Memories" represents an intricate balance between remembering and letting go. There’s a sense of acceptance in the acknowledgment of both joy and sorrow found within memories. The refrain about closing one’s eyes to find solace between days signifies a yearning for peace amid the chaos of life. As the singer inhales and exhales memories, the act of breathing become an integral process of preserving those fleeting moments. Through vivid imagery like fallen leaves transforming into white snow, the song commentates on the passing of time and change, where the essence of what once was remains alive in the heart. This journey through memory invites listeners to reflect on their own experiences, encouraging a deeper connection to their past while recognizing the importance of savoring each moment as it comes.
