GOLD Verse 1 Wait I've been waiting for a change From a stranger on the run to the person I saw when I was young But I, I can't see him anymore And the farther I run away The closer I feel to yesterday Chorus Now I'm trying to make it there Take me back to the summer air When a shadow of innocence remains Oh take me back To that golden feeling I had when I was young, when I was young Verse 2 Sun Sun glowing on the water It reminds me of a time When the world still felt like mine I wish I could jump into the screen feel the way it used to be and the warmth from the TV
I first heard this song in 2023 while driving back home after visiting my mom in the hospital right after she was diagnosed with cancer. Ive been listening to it every day since. I bawl my eyes out thinking about her.
I was 16 when I heard this song for the first time. I liked it because, idk, it sounds incredible. But now, I'm 19, I start to understand the meaning of this song (at least from my understanding) as this is my last year as a teenager and I start to feel the fear of growing up and constantly think about how carefree and happy I was few years ago. I mean, I still young, but my responsibilities getting heavier, I've moved out, and the whole uni things is just super stressful.
Hang in there bud ! This is the real life and not the fantasy we built up in our mind back in highschool. Choose which you want, you can have fun in the present time of your early 20s to escape from the dreadful feeling or you can embrace those dreadful things and build your foundation. Embrace it fully and learn things from it, wise up early and STAY MOTIVATED !
Can't stop listening to this song...just awesome! Thank you for the beautiful music. I miss this type of music that has heart! Feel as though I am in the 80's!
