Loving Me Too
Unwavering Longing
Lyrics
Well I've gone
Expressing the act of moving away or leaving.
Out your life
Acknowledging the departure from the other person's life.
Went and found somebody new
Finding a new person to fill the void left by the previous relationship.
To keep me awake at night
Seeking company or distraction during sleepless nights.
And I took your pictures
Removing visual reminders of the past relationship.
Out my phone
Erasing digital traces of the former partner.
I went and burned the words you gave me
Symbolically letting go of the emotional baggage associated with the relationship.
Thought the flames would make me whole
Expecting that the act of letting go will bring completeness or healing.
Well the distance
Highlighting the emotional distance and its impact on the speaker.
It don't so far
Emphasizing that physical distance doesn't diminish the emotional pain.
When you put it between me
Describing the emotional separation from the broken-hearted speaker.
And my broken heart
Exploring the role of distance in exacerbating heartbreak.
I said I'm over you
Claiming to have moved on from the past relationship.
But girl I ain't ever gonna stop needing you
Admitting a persistent need for the former partner despite the claim of moving on.
I said I'm done with you
Declaring an end to the relationship.
But girl I ain't ever gonna stop loving you
Affirming a lasting love for the ex-partner.
I just hope you'll be loving me too
Expressing a hope that the ex-partner reciprocates the love.
I saw your face
Observing the ex-partner from a distance.
From across the bar
Noticing the ex-partner's presence in a social setting.
I saw you smile at the man
Seeing the ex-partner interacting with someone who seems destined for failure.
Who was bound to lose it all
Commenting on the ex-partner's choices and potential consequences.
It's been awhile my dear
Indicating the passage of time since the last contact.
I said when you called
Recalling a conversation with the ex-partner in a dream.
In the dream I had about you
Referencing a dream involving the ex-partner leaving in the past.
When you left me last fall
Reflecting on the emotional impact of the ex-partner's departure.
Well the distance
Reiterating the challenges posed by emotional distance.
I swear it's killing us all
Stating that distance is affecting everyone involved.
When we can't be
Expressing the difficulty of being true to oneself amid distance.
Who we think we are
Reflecting on the struggle to maintain authenticity in a long-distance relationship.
I said I'm over you
Repeating the assertion of moving on from the past relationship.
But girl I ain't ever gonna stop needing you
Acknowledging an enduring need for the ex-partner.
I said I'm done with you
Confirming the decision to end the relationship.
But girl I ain't ever gonna stop loving you
Expressing an unending love for the ex-partner.
I just hope you'll be loving me too
Reiterating the hope for reciprocal love.
Oh loving me too
Repeating the desire for the ex-partner's love.
Oh
Symbolic expression of emotion, possibly a sigh or lament.
I said I'm over you
Reiterating the claim of moving on from the past relationship.
But girl I ain't ever gonna stop needing you
Affirming a persistent need for the ex-partner.
I said I'm done with you
Declaring the end of the relationship.
But babe I ain't ever gonna stop loving you
Expressing an enduring love for the ex-partner.
I just hope you'll be loving me too
Reiterating the hope for reciprocal love.
