Lyrics
I’ve been thinking thinking thinking ‘bout my life
I’ve been contemplating about my life.
Thinking ‘bout this, thinking ‘bout that
Reflecting on various things.
Thinking ‘bout how i’m gon’ end being your wife
Considering how I’ll eventually become your wife.
One day or so i pray
Hoping for a future day when this happens, perhaps through prayer.
Also i look back at the old and see
Looking back at the past.
How you rocked up and rolled with me
Remembering how you were there for me.
Now you know me, now you know me
Now that you know me well.
You can trust me when i say i no leave
Assuring that you can trust me when I say I won’t leave.
Oh i’ll wait till we stroll down 88
Expressing willingness to wait until a specific moment or time.
You’ll ask me who’s dated me and
Anticipating a question about past relationships.
I’ll say it’s complicated
Planning to describe past relationships as complex.
Meaning there’s a big difference between loving and a date
Explaining the difference between love and dating.
Not a lotta lovers bringing dinner to the plate
Not many lovers show commitment by providing meals.
I’m saying
Emphasizing a point.

-Wait wait, don’t you hesitate
Advising against rushing into something.
I’m just being cautious about who eats the cake
Being cautious about who gets involved in a relationship.
Wait wait, don’t be showing up too late
Warning against arriving late because waiting causes anxiety.
I tend to get anxious, I do not like to wait
Expressing discomfort with waiting.
But maybe maybe maybe
You wanna show me something that my eyes ain’t seen
Speculating that someone might want to reveal something new.
I must admit i might be just a little keen
Admitting to being intrigued or interested.
To see if you be meaning what you say you mean baby
Curious to know if someone is sincere about their intentions.
Wanna tell you something
Desiring to communicate something important.
I don’t play games no more
Declaring a change in behavior, indicating not playing games.
Not an arcade stick
Metaphorically stating the avoidance of games like those in an arcade.
I don’t play games no more
Reiterating the rejection of playing games in relationships.
Not an arcade stick baby
Repeating the sentiment about not engaging in relationship games.
