Lyrics
Look at the mess we made
Reflecting on the difficulties or problems in the relationship.
A couple of clowns we are
Acknowledging their own shortcomings or mistakes in a self-deprecating manner.
Look at the hearts we break
Recognizing the emotional pain caused to others.
Going 'round and 'round we are
Describing a cyclical or repetitive nature of their actions and consequences.
I'll make it alright, make it alright baby
Expressing a commitment to make things right or improve the situation.
Make it alright, make it alright baby
Reiterating the desire to make amends and bring comfort.
Girl, don't you go, no, don't you dare
Pleading with the partner not to leave or end the relationship.
I'm not gonna breathe without you in the air
Stating a dependence on the partner for emotional well-being.
Don't tell me one dance is, just one dance is all I'm gonna get
Expressing dissatisfaction with a limited romantic interaction.
Yeah, I wasn't through, wasn't through, lovin' you yet
Asserting that the speaker wasn't finished expressing love or commitment.
If a careless word
Acknowledging the potential harm caused by thoughtless words.
Baby cut too deep
Describing the depth of emotional wounds caused by careless actions.
If I made you cry
Expressing regret for causing the partner to cry.
If I made you bleed
Expressing regret for causing physical harm or pain.
I'll take it all back, take it all back baby
Committing to take back all the hurtful actions or words.
I'll take it all back, take it all back baby
Reiterating the commitment to undo the pain caused.
Girl, don't you go, no, don't you dare
Repeating the plea for the partner not to leave.
I'm not gonna breathe without you in the air
Emphasizing the emotional dependency on the partner.
Don't tell me one kiss is, one last kiss is all I'm gonna get
Expressing dissatisfaction with the idea of a final kiss.
Well I wasn't through lovin' you yet
Affirming that the speaker wasn't finished loving the partner.
Look at the mess we've made
Repeating the reflection on the problems or mess in the relationship.
A couple of clowns we are
Reiterating the self-aware acknowledgment of being flawed.
Look at the hearts we break
