Lyrics
I see you crying, I don't know why yet
I observe you crying, though I'm uncertain about the reason
I see you crying, I'm doing my best
I notice your tears, and I'm making an effort to help
You won't stop crying, I'm rubbing your back
You continue crying, and I am comforting you by rubbing your back
I see you crying, wish I could take all of that
I see your tears, and I wish I could alleviate all your pain
I'm trying to understand, something I don't understand
I'm attempting to comprehend something that is currently beyond my understanding
I'm trying to feel how you feel, but I'll never feel what you feel
I'm trying to empathize with your emotions, though I can never truly experience what you're going through
I'm trying to understand, something I don't understand
Similar to line 6, emphasizing the ongoing effort to understand something unfamiliar
I'm trying to feel how you feel, but I'll never feel what you feel
Similar to line 7, reiterating the challenge of fully grasping and sharing another person's feelings
Look at me, I love you
Directly expressing love and support
It's okay, you're okay
Assuring the person that despite difficulties, they are okay
Look at me, I love you
Repeating the expression of love and support for emphasis
It's okay, you're okay
Reassuring once again that the person is okay despite challenges
I hear the quiet, I didn't forget
Acknowledging the quiet or calm, indicating a sensitivity to the emotional atmosphere
I hear the silence, let me try to break it
Hearing the silence and expressing a willingness to break it, possibly to communicate or address underlying issues
I see you smile, remember back when
Recalling a moment of happiness or positivity when the person smiled
My front-seat dancer, always my favorite
Referring to someone as a front-seat dancer, highlighting a cherished memory or person
I'm trying to understand, something I don't understand
Continuing the effort to understand something elusive
I'm trying to feel how you feel, but I'll never feel what you feel
Reiterating the challenge of fully grasping and sharing another person's emotions
I'm trying to understand, something I don't understand
Similar to line 23, emphasizing the ongoing effort to understand something unfamiliar
I'm trying to feel how you feel, but I'll never feel what you feel
Similar to line 24, reiterating the challenge of fully grasping and sharing another person's feelings
Look at me, I love you
Repeating the declaration of love and reinforcing the message that it's okay
It's okay, you're okay

It's okay, you're okay
Reassuring once again that the person is okay despite challenges

Reassuring once again that the person is okay despite challenges
Look at me, I love you
