Lyrics
Don't like to see your face
Expressing dislike for seeing the person's face.
Don't like to hear you talk at all
Expressing dislike for hearing the person talk.
I could be with Ann
The speaker could potentially be with someone named Ann.
But I'd just get bored
Being with Ann might result in feeling bored.
Can't even bring myself to call
Feeling an inability to contact the person.
And I don't want to see you now
Not wanting to see the person presently.
'Cause I know what you lack
Understanding what the person lacks.
And I can't go back to that
Unwillingness to return to a situation with those lacking qualities.
Whatever's all the same
Everything seems to be the same, no significant change.
Now there's nobody to know
There's no one around to understand or know.
And I can't recall, recall your name
Difficulty remembering the person's name.
All I can say is so
The only thing the speaker can express is "so."
And I don't want to see you now
Continuing the reluctance to see the person.
'Cause I know what you lack
Recognizing the absence or deficiency in the person.
And I can't go back to that
Refusing to return to a situation lacking qualities.
Your life is white
Metaphorically suggesting the person's life is colorless or uninteresting.
And I don't think I like
Expressing dislike for the person being around.
You hanging around
Disliking the person's presence or company.
Don't like to see your face
Reiteration of not liking to see the person's face.
Don't like to hear you talk at all
Reiteration of not liking to hear the person talk.
I could be with Ann
Reiteration of the possibility of being with someone named Ann.
But I'd just get bored
Reiteration of feeling bored if with Ann.
Can't even bring myself to call
Reiterating the difficulty in initiating contact with the person.
And I don't want to see you now
Continued reluctance to see the person currently.
'Cause I know what you lack
Reaffirming the understanding of what the person lacks.
And I can't go back to that now
Firmly asserting the refusal to return to the previous situation.
