Lyrics
Guess I forgot this time
Expresses forgetfulness or neglect in the relationship
Checkin' up on you, I forgot you ain't mine
Realization that the person being checked on is not romantically involved
And it's been worth the time, yeah
Acknowledges the investment of time in the relationship
Set me back a couple months and I
Suggests setbacks or challenges faced in the relationship
Been just waiting for signs
Impatiently waiting for signs or signals from the other person
Checking my phone, got me fucked up tonight, baby
Expresses frustration while checking the phone
But I won't even mind
Indicates a willingness to overlook issues
Nothing you do, nothing you do, yeah
Emphasizes a lack of concern for the other person's actions
For this moment, I'ma act like everything's okay
Acting as if everything is fine in the present moment, despite difficulties
For this moment, I'ma act like you with me today
-For this moment, I'ma act like you were just right here
-For this moment, losing you is not my biggest fear
-For this moment, I'ma act like everything's okay
Repetition of the theme, highlighting the temporary nature of the moment
For this moment, I'ma act like you won't fade away
-For this moment, girl, because it won't be here for long
-For this moment, girl, you know just what I'm waiting on
-For this moment, I'ma act like everything's okay
-For this moment, I'ma act like you with me today
-For this moment, I'ma act like you were just right here
-For this moment, losing you is not my biggest fear
-For this moment, I'ma act like everything's okay
Continuation of the act, reiterating the fear of losing the person
For this moment, I'ma act like you won't fade away
-For this moment, girl, because it won't be here for long
-For this moment, girl, you know just what I'm waiting on
-Girl, you know just what I'm-
Repetition of the girl understanding the waiting
What I'm-
Repetition of the anticipation
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Expression of emotion or emphasis
Girl, you know just what I'm waiting on (oh, oh-oh, ooh, ooh)
Restates the girl's understanding of what is waited for
What I'm waiting on (ooh-ooh-woah, oh, oh, oh)
Reiteration of the anticipation and emotional waiting
What I'm waiting, waiting
Continued emphasis on the waiting aspect
What I'm waiting, waiting
-What I'm waiting on
