My grandmother passed away this Sunday. She raised me and Iāve been remembering the time I spent with her in my home land. Alas, here you are again, Tom, with a coincidentally nostalgic song. Interesting how we all share similar feelings even if our environments and the situations that bring about those feelings may be different. Thank you as always for sharing these feelings through song so that we may find comfort and meaning in them.

Growing up, I really disliked Sundays. I could never really enjoy them because my parents made me go to church in the morning and in the evening. I used to envy people who could simply appreciate the day freely at the park, ride a bike, play or just do whatever they wanted to.
The first time I did that was when I left my parentsā house. I was 24. And I remember that in a sudden impulse, I woke up, grabbed the book I was reading, went downtown, sat somewhere and read it while enjoying a sunny afternoon. I felt as free as the boy you sing about in this song. And I decided I would never take the simple pleasure of enjoying Sundays for granted. I believe this song will do the exact same thing for me. It just became a lovely reminder of how I can go back to the beauty of my first genuinely happy Sunday. So thank you for it, Tom. :)
Also, āall of my hearts have wandered off without meā is a breathtaking verse.

Thank you for sharing this with us, Tom! I'm turning 25 in a few days (definitely considering this an early birthday treat!) and the lyrics have resonated deeply with a lot of my thoughts about getting older and growing up. The nostalgia for childhood, the longing for the magic that filled those Sundays is something I've been thinking more about recently, perhaps because I've never felt more lost in my life than right now, very much feeling like a "life beginner". "The wandering life never seemed like a goodbye" - this was the line that stuck out most to me on my first listen (the song's been on repeat since), as I'm considering settling down for the first time, the line holds some melancholic truth. I can tell I'm about to start rambling, so I'll end it here. Thank you, Tom!

I adore it. The nostalgic feeling is kind of overwhelming, to be honest. Makes me really miss all my childhood adventures. But they are remembered with nothing but love. I hope that child is still in me... and as long as I'm living, I'll find her here, someday.
Beautifully written song. Thank you <3

this song feels like disappearing into the little things you see in nature once you look closely enough. this is something i taught myself to do more frequently over an emotionally challenging past year and it helped me so much to reconnect to a childlike wonder and joy - and to strengthen my appreciation for whats around me daily. it is very nice to have a song that captures this exactly ā¤ļø

This reminds me of a poem I wrote years ago. In the end, it's me as an old man longing for youth and me as a child longing for maturity looking at each other. At the same time, they both say "beckon me." This is like if my vision for that poem was a song and also was beautifully captivating and better than I could actually do. As always, Tom, thank you for giving us this gift.

Had to say goodbye to the place I spent all my childhood summers at. What I knew as a peaceful countryside street with a dozen people with warm smiles is now a ghost town. The young ones have moved to the city, the old ones departed from life. Nature is taking over the paths I used to walk as a child.
Ever since I can remember, leaving Varshets always felt like I'd never see it again. And then the next year I'd go back.
But not anymore. I can't bare to be there.
One day I'll return. I'll see you as I remember you - all my old neighbours in the street, the donkey Marco, my favourite tree that got chopped down. If heaven exists, it should look like you.

I love this Tom, this is such a lovely song that captures the bittersweetness of nostalgia in terms of being a naive child but at the same time a hopeful song that fills you with the promise that a moment that could come and take you back to that mindset. I love it! Thank you for creating such meaningful melodies!

Weeks after the explosion of the port of Beirut i had to quit my nest and continue my studies in France. I remember the day i took my flight, i was so afraid and extremely vulnerable i had tomās song āgo soloā in my headphones while starring at the clouds.
Itās months later, with time i started growing new roots and i started to learn that in every place life that takes you there will be good and bad possible experiences and they both go in infinite directions.
āNever not sundayā should be added to the list of the songs that could possibly change someoneās life.
Thank you Tom for your music, thank you for existing !

My favourite thing about Tom's music is that regardless of the theme and emotion, it always feels optimistic.
