In the realm of heartache and longing, this evocative ballad paints a poignant picture. The song is about two people who have drifted apart over time, becoming mere shadows or "ghosts" of their former selves. Harry Styles uses vivid imagery to describe the lingering familiarity between them, yet emphasizes their emotional disconnect. The repeated line "tryin' to remember how it feels to have a heartbeat" suggests a desperate attempt to rekindle lost emotions and revive their relationship. However, the melancholic tone indicates an acceptance that they can't go back to who they were. It's a deeply touching exploration of love lost and the passage of time.
