![]() and ironically now the singer is wanting nothing but the dark as a symbol for time stopping. As a kid they would try to protect him from his fears such as the dark. Memories is an evolution of the more acoustic sound put forth in Maroon 5’s sixth studio album, Red Pill Blues, and specifically their 1 hit, Girls Like You. This would be an interesting line assuming that the sick relative we are talking about is a mother or a father or a parental figure in the singer's life. "I was afraid of the dark but now it's all that I want." The sky is getting bright, the stars are burning out somebody slow it down." "Here I am staring at your perfection in my arms, so beautiful. "And when the daylight comes I'll have to go, but tonight I'm going to hold you so close."ĭon't worry about the end. ![]() I know it's late but I'm going to cherish every single minute with you before I say goodbye. "This is our last night but it's late and I'm trying not to sleep cause I know when I wake I will have to slip away" We knew that you would have to leave us, but I never thought so soon. When I hear this song, I think of spending your final moments with a dying loved one. PS: hope this helped n pls reply if you don't agree with what I've written or if you can add something to it. No matter what the writer wants the daylight is inevitable, no matter what it will always come around eventually which signifies that life keeps going on no matter what and we just need to accept it. The writer is telling us that earlier he wanted things to change because he wasn't very happy with the situation but now all he wants is the 'dark' because the dark means that the 'daylight' which is the future stays away. Now the writer is beginning to accept that eventually he'll have to let o but at the same time he also wants to make the most of the present and live life to the fullest.Īgain he is watching everyone around him change and knows that soon everything and everyone will be different that is why he is taking in everything and keeping it safe in his memories. The writer is trying I tell us that soon he is gonna have to move on with his life and accept the changes that are occurring but he doesn't want to accept that even though he knew that nothing lasts forever.Ģnd Para/4th Para/6th Para/7th Para (They're all the same) Cuz I like writing about the meaning I am gonna tell you the meaning para wise. The whole song is basically about not wanting to let go if the past memories because the writer is scared of moving on or change. I think that daylight is being used as a metaphor for the future or change and 'you' as in the person who is being talked about is used as a metaphor for the past or memories. This song is a really meaningful song and one of my favourites. Ooh whoa (yeah), ooh whoa (yeah), ooh whoa Ooh whoa (yeah), ooh whoa (yeah), ooh whoa (yeah) The sky is getting bright, the stars are burning outīecause I don't wanna start all over, start all overīut now it's all that I want, all that I want, all that I want 'Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own We knew this day would come, we knew it all alongĪnd when the daylight comes I'll have to go I mean, c’mon.Here I am waiting, I'll have to leave soon What better way to make a mockery of the phrase “girls like you” - Maroon 5 (along with an army of talented and confident women) is here to tell you that no two women are the same and that trying to separate them down into different groups only to dismiss them is a fallacy. Their personalities each shine with incredible individuality. You won’t see any two women dressed in the same outfit or dancing the same either. From actresses to models to olympic athletes to comedians, this video features not only women from all different walks of life, but all different ethnicities as well. ![]() It doesn’t take too much brainpower to recognize that these women are all.well, different. Doesn’t sound very exciting does it? Well, as he dives into the first chorus, as the camera is rotating around him, different women begin appearing behind him at every pass. There are two things (in particular!) about Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You” video that make my heart sing - as a staunch feminist, I obviously love the fact that this video features so many amazing women as someone who has always been a fan of variety in my media, I thoroughly enjoyed watching a video with so much of it! The video features Adam Levine standing on a platform alone singing into a microphone. I need a girl like you, yeah yeah (oh-oh) 'Til sundown (sundown), when I come through Maybe I'm thinking it's better if you drive Maybe you've taken my shit for the last time, yeah Trying to make things right between us (oh, oh)
