Our Thing
Harmony Beyond Words: Averi Doesn't Blink Unveils the Soulful Dance of Unspoken Connections
Lyrics
I can list about a thousand things that you don't want me to
The speaker can identify numerous things that their partner doesn't want them to mention.
That would write about a thousand wrongs between me and you
There would be many grievances or misunderstandings between the speaker and their partner if listed.
Heavy are the hearts that battle without a clue
There's emotional weight in the conflicts between them, with both parties feeling lost or unsure.
No one gets to pick their fights and I know 'cause I wouldn't have picked you, yet
People can't choose the conflicts they face; the speaker acknowledges they wouldn't have chosen this particular situation with their partner.
When I wanna dream of you, I just put on your Stevie Nicks record
To dream about their partner, the speaker listens to a specific Stevie Nicks record associated with them.
And I'll try and steal glances at you even when I'm sitting right next to ya
Even when physically close, the speaker tries to steal glances at their partner, suggesting a longing or desire for connection.
Driving backwards up your street just to make you laugh
Performing silly or unconventional acts, like driving backward on their partner's street, to evoke laughter.
I guess that's our thing
These unusual actions and connections with their partner define something special between them.
What is this thing
The speaker questions or ponders about the significance or nature of this unique bond.
I like to think you sing my name to help you fall asleep
The speaker imagines their partner saying their name to aid in falling asleep, suggesting an intimate connection.
And that every piece of me I give to you, you really want to keep
The speaker believes they offer their whole self to their partner, hoping it's valued and retained.
Know I'm not trying to dumb it down, I know we're not easy
Acknowledging the complexities in their relationship and stating they're not trying to oversimplify it.
But the fact remains you still end up calling me "your" Averi, so
Despite difficulties, the partner still claims the speaker as "their" Averi, indicating a sense of possession or affection.
When I wanna dream of you, I just put on your Stevie Nicks record
Similar to line 6, using the Stevie Nicks record to evoke thoughts or dreams about the partner.
And I'll try and steal glances at you even when I'm sitting right next to ya
Continuing to seek connection or attention from the partner even when in close proximity.
I'll always drive backwards up your street just to hear you laugh
Repeating the unconventional act of driving backward for the partner's amusement or joy.
I guess that's our thing
Reiterating that these unconventional behaviors and connections define their unique relationship.
You're everything
The partner means everything to the speaker; they hold immense importance in their life.
