- 1901 LyricsCounting all different ideas driftin'away
Past and present don't matter
not if you just sort it out
Watch you moving in elliptical pattern
Think it's not what you say,
what you say is way to complicated
For a minute thought
I couldn't tell how to fall out
It's 20 seconds til the last call
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
By now you know it's easy
like we did it all summer long
And I'll be anything you ask and more
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
It's not a miracle we needed
And no, I wouldn't let you think so
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Girlfriend, oh you're girlfriends drifting away
Past and present, 1855 1901
Watch them build up a material tower
Think it's not gonna stay, anyway I think it's overrated
For a minute felt
I couldn't tell how to fall out
It's 20 seconds til the last call
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
Lie down, you know it's easy
like we did it all summer long
And I'll be anything you ask and more
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
It's not a miracle we needed
And no, I wouldn't let you think so
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
instrumental
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Past and present don't matter
not if you just sort it out
Watch you moving in elliptical pattern
Think it's not what you say,
what you say is way to complicated
For a minute thought
I couldn't tell how to fall out
It's 20 seconds til the last call
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
By now you know it's easy
like we did it all summer long
And I'll be anything you ask and more
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
It's not a miracle we needed
And no, I wouldn't let you think so
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Girlfriend, oh you're girlfriends drifting away
Past and present, 1855 1901
Think it's not gonna stay, anyway I think it's overrated
For a minute felt
I couldn't tell how to fall out
It's 20 seconds til the last call
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
Lie down, you know it's easy
like we did it all summer long
And I'll be anything you ask and more
Going hey hey hey hey hey hey
It's not a miracle we needed
And no, I wouldn't let you think so
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
instrumental
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it
Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it

✔️
When we check its meaning, Birdy’s ‘1901’ portrays a nostalgic view of the past, using the metaphor of ‘drifting away’ for time and people’s relations to express their temporary nature. The repetitive “fold it” lines indicate a yearning to keep or retain these moments regardless of their transient character. The singer’s elaborate melancholy is crowned with a nostalgic longing covered often in words like love, fear, reflection, and even joy. Along these lines, the song also points to the transitory nature of time and relationships, the ease and simplicity of the moments, the deception and the short-lived nature of the materialism, and the commitment and the flexibility. The lyrics represent some rather abstract themes and repetitive phrases which might need monitoring by parents to see if they are not too difficult to understand for the little ones. There is no use of profanity, violence, or sexual content, but the abstractness of the lyrics might be puzzling or unwarranted for very young children without context.
