You return to this song during those moments when you need to feel close to someone without saying much at all.

Parmalee crafted what feels like an intimate present-moment lullaby, yet listeners gravitated toward the song as a vessel for memory—hearing in it not the immediacy of closing eyes with someone now, but the bittersweet ache of returning to moments already lived.
