Tangerine
Navigating Love's Crossroads: Tangerine by Autumn In June
Lyrics
Baby you can tell me
Addressing the listener, inviting them to share their feelings.
If it's something that you need
Expressing openness to fulfill the listener's needs.
If it's something that you want
Acknowledging the listener's desires or wishes.
To be alone
Suggesting the option of solitude or separation.
We can go our separate ways
Suggesting parting ways if necessary for personal growth.
If you need to find yourself
Encouraging the listener to discover themselves independently.
I'm good on my own
Expressing contentment with being alone.
Been for too long
Implying a prolonged period of solitude.
Cause when the good turns bad
Highlighting the challenge when positive things turn negative.
I don't wanna be gone too late
Expressing a desire not to be too late in addressing issues.
When the wave's too low
Metaphorically referring to challenges as waves.
I just wanna be on my own
Expressing a preference for solitude during difficult times.
Let the good things go
Suggesting a willingness to let go of positive aspects.
When the love is in the past
Reflecting on past love and its impact.
And you need to know
Indicating a need for clarity and understanding.
We don't need to make it last
Emphasizing that making a relationship last might not be necessary.
We don't need to make it last
-We don't need to make it last
-You tell me that it ain't me
Responding to a statement about the speaker not being the issue.
Yea no shit I know that
Asserting awareness of the situation.
I just need to know how
Expressing a need to understand how to walk away.
I need to walk away
Reiterating the decision to leave.
I hear what your friends say
Acknowledging external opinions from the listener's friends.
Every time you stay home
Noting the days passing while waiting at home.
I'm counting down the days
Expressing impatience or anticipation.
Cause when the good turns bad
Repeating the theme of challenges turning bad.
I don't wanna be gone too late
Reiterating the desire not to be too late in addressing issues.
When the wave's too low
Continuing the metaphor of waves as challenges.
I just wanna be on my own
Reiterating the preference for solitude during difficulties.
Let the good things go
Expressing a willingness to let go of positive aspects.
When the love is in the past
Reflecting on the end of love and the need for clarity.
And you need to know
Reiterating the need for understanding in a past relationship.
We don't need to make it last
Emphasizing that making a relationship last might not be necessary.
We don't need to make it last
-We don't need to make it last
-You wanna be sweet like tangerines huh
Questioning the sincerity of the listener's sweetness, using tangerines as a metaphor.
You still have nothing for me
Asserting that there is nothing substantial from the listener.
You still have nothing for me
-And I have nothing to hide
Stating a lack of hidden motives or secrets.
Nothing in mind
Declaring an absence of specific intentions or plans.
I just wanna be for good
Expressing a desire for a lasting positive state.
I just wanna be for good
Reiterating the desire for lasting goodness.
