Lyrics
And I got my faults
The speaker acknowledges their imperfections.
But I'll be honest that I don't know
The speaker admits to uncertainty about their current situation.
What I'm doing out here tonight
Expresses confusion or lack of direction in the present moment.
But no I really can't take much more
Feeling overwhelmed and unable to endure more of the current circumstances.
And I'll be here tomorrow night girl
Plans or intends to be present again the following night.
Would rather dive into our own world
Prefers to immerse themselves in a private world with someone special.
I know I come on too strong
Aware of coming on too strong or assertively in their approach.
But oh I can't handle what I've been told
Struggling to cope with information or experiences received.
La da da, la da da dah
Vocalization indicating a lack of words or filler sounds.
La da da, la da da dah
Continuation of vocalization, expressing a similar sentiment.
She said, "We're already in this crowded room, let's not leave too soon"
Dialogue with another person at the crowded gathering.
But I'm caught up on something right now
Feeling preoccupied or distracted by something specific.
I guess it's just your perfume
Attributing feelings to the scent of the other person.
And are you leaving or are you staying?
Uncertainty about the other person's departure or stay.
Whatever choice I guess is great, then
Indifference towards the choices the other person makes.
And maybe I'm just a fool
Reflection on the possibility of being naive or foolish.
I guess it's fun to be someone new
Finding enjoyment in assuming a different identity or persona.

Couldn't this be more than just three questions at some party?
