Lyrical Analysis of...

Back Then

  1. 🎵Title: “Back Then”
  2.  
  3. (Verse 1)
  4. Met her one summer at a county fair,
  5. Sunset fallin’ through her wavy hair.
  6. Cubs cap backward, heart racin’ fast,
  7. Didn’t know it’d be a memory that would last.
  8.  
  9. She had a laugh like Fourth of July,
  10. And a look that could quiet the sky.
  11. Shared a Coke, shared a glance,
  12. Both too young to call it romance.
  13.  
  14. We danced in the dirt by the old hay ride,
  15. Bare feet, no plans, nowhere to hide.
  16. I ain’t forget that first small town spark —
  17. Some names fade, but some leave a mark.
  18.  
  19. ⸻
  20.  
  21. (Hook)
  22. It was somethin’ like that, a time and a place,
  23. Back when forever was just a face.
  24. Didn’t know nothin’, but it felt real true,
  25. Like the whole world paused when I looked at you.
  26. Now the days move on and the roads bend,
  27. But I still feel it sometimes…
  28. Back then.
  29.  
  30. ⸻
  31.  
  32. (Verse 2)
  33. She said her favorite song was KISS, no lie,
  34. Played Forever while we watched stars fly by.
  35. Carved our names in a tree by the creek,
  36. Promised we’d meet again the next week.
  37.  
  38. But time moves on and hearts do too,
  39. Seasons change and so did you.
  40. But I still drive past that Ferris wheel,
  41. And wonder if you ever think of how it’d feel.
  42.  
  43. ⸻
  44.  
  45. (Hook)
  46. It was somethin’ like that, a laugh in the dark,
  47. Like slow dancin’ under the bleachers at the park.
  48. Didn’t know nothin’, but it felt real true,
  49. Like the whole world paused when I looked at you.
  50. Now the days move on and the roads bend,
  51. But I still feel it sometimes…
  52. Back then.
  53.  
  54. ⸻
  55.  
  56. (Bridge)
  57. Maybe we were too young, maybe we were just right,
  58. Just a kiss on a Friday night.
  59. But there’s somethin’ in that memory I hold tight —
  60. Like the smell of the grill and them stadium lights.
  61.  
  62. ⸻
  63.  
  64. (Final Hook)
  65. Yeah, it was somethin’ like that, like a sunburned heart,
  66. Still glows when the nights get dark.
  67. Didn’t know nothin’, but it felt real true,
  68. And no one since has felt like you.
  69. Now the days move on and the roads bend,
  70. But I still feel it sometimes…
  71. Back then.
