Song Meaning
The lyrics paint a picture of a relationship that feels both deeply familiar and strangely distant, existing in a sort of suspended reality. There's a sense of quiet routine, a comfortable stillness that has settled over the couple. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it hints at a lack of forward momentum or perhaps a resignation to the present state. The repeated phrase "latter days" suggests a focus on the present or future, but the context implies a quiet, almost uneventful unfolding rather than grand plans. It’s a snapshot of a relationship in its settled phase.
