A song about timing, memory, and the strange pull of someone who keeps drifting away.
The lyric treats the feeling like a secret you can't quite keep, something that betrays you with a "flicker." It's less about longing and more about the body's quiet rebellion against a mind trying to stay composed.
The phrase "my heart gets startled" keeps returning, followed by "a flicker appears." It's not about a big emotion, but that small, involuntary jump when a memory or a person surfaces.
A strong comment here is specific: the phrase you keep hearing, the mood you come back for, or the reason this song stays in rotation.
