The Memory of Sunday

The story starts with a boy waking up early in the Sunday morning and feeling excited to marry his lover. As he prepared his wedding suit, he was recalling their happy memories together that even though how rude or evil the girl was, he still loved her and fortunately changed her to a better one. After all the preparations, he now went out from his house and made his way to the location of the girl.

However, when she went to the house of the girl, no one was in there. He waited for hours and hours outside calling the girl til the night came and the rain poured down. He was almost crying and broke his patience. He disturbed the sleeping neighbors very late at night interrogating them where the girl is. But, most of them couldn't answer him straightly until one of them told him what really happened. Then, the boy had no choice but to go home with painful tears in his heart.

Did you felt sympathy for the boy?
Uhm...If I were asked, it's a yes...

Sad love stories like that are really poignant and leave questions in our minds. Up to now, I really don't know why the girl disappeared.

Actually the story is my own interpretation of the song, "Remembering Sunday", by All Time Low. I consider the song one of the best sad love songs because it is so touching. The song was made perfectly and performed greatly by the band with the collaboration of Juliet Simms (from the band Automatic Loveletter) in the ending part of the song.

Oh well, as a good sharer, I'll share with you the song together with the lyrics so that you could relate.

REMEMBERING SUNDAY
All Time Low feat Juliet Simms

He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
Started making his way past
Two in the morning
He hasn't been sober for days

Leaning now into the breeze
Remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees
They had breakfast together
But two eggs don't last
Like the feeling of what he needs

Now this place seems familiar to him
She pulled on his hand with a devilish grin
She led him upstairs
She led him upstairs
Left him dying to get in

Forgive me, I'm trying to find my calling
I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
And it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm gonna ask her to marry me

Even though she doesn't believe in love
He's determined to call her bluff
Who could deny these butterflies?
They're filling his gut

Waking the neighbors, unfamiliar faces
He pleads though he tries
But he's only denied
Now he's dying to get inside

Forgive me, I'm trying to find my calling
I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
And it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm gonna ask her to marry me

The neighbors said she moved away
Funny how it rained all day
I didn't think much of it then
But it's starting to all make sense
Oh, I can see now that all of these clouds
Are following me in my desperate endeavor
To find my whoever, wherever she may be


[Juliet Simms:]
I'm not coming back
(Forgive me)
I've done something so terrible
I'm terrified to speak
(I'm not calling, I'm not calling)
But you'd expect that from me
I'm mixed up, I'll be blunt
(You're driving me crazy)
Now the rain is just washing you out of my hair
And out of my mind
Keeping an eye on the world
From so many thousands of feet off the ground
I'm over you now
I'm at home in the clouds, towering over your head


I guess I'll go home now
I guess I'll go home now
I guess I'll go home now
I guess I'll go home

According to my own formulated theory based on my critical analysis and understanding on the lyrics, I think the girl died but there are still left words unsaid to the boy. She wants to explain everything but she can't because it's too late..
