La chanson explore les thèmes de la mémoire, de la culpabilité et des relations passées. Elle évoque des souvenirs d'une connexion émotionnelle entre deux personnes, longtemps oubliée mais toujours présente dans l'esprit du narrateur. Les images d'un vase et d'une rose symbolisent une fragilité et une beauté éphémère, tandis que les questionnements sur les promesses brisées mettent en lumière la complexité des choix faits dans le passé. À travers une introspection sincère, l'artiste examine l'impact que ces souvenirs ont sur le présent, en s'interrogeant sur le rôle qu'elle a joué dans la vie des autres et sur ce qui a été laissé en suspens.
