Lyrics
Girl I know there's something wrong
Recognizing something is amiss in the relationship
I can see it when I look in your eyes
Seeing the issue reflected in the partner's eyes
And I know that it couldn't be far
Realizing the problem isn't distant; it's a recurring theme in their lives
it's the story of our lives
Referencing the recurring issues they face together
And when I look over my shoulder
Expecting someone familiar to be there during tough times
I know who'll be on the other side
Anticipating support from a specific person
And things will get trashy until we get to my place
Implying chaos or difficulty before finding solace at home
And I wonder
Expressing curiosity or uncertainty
I wonder if you will ever know
Questioning if the partner comprehends the situation
I never wanted you to go
Desiring the partner not to leave
No I don't think so I don't think so
Emphatically denying belief in the partner's departure
Or how much, how much I've been wishing we could make it work
Expressing longing for the relationship to succeed
Or forget it for a minute and how bad it hurts
Acknowledging the pain while wishing to overlook it momentarily
And I don't know how and I don't know how
Feeling clueless about resolution or understanding
You know that there's nothing wrong
Asserting nothing is awry from one's perspective
Maybe you just need a reason to cry
Suggesting the partner might need a reason to express emotions
Baby I don't have a reason to lie
Stating personal honesty in the situation
It's the story of our lives
Reiterating recurring issues in their lives
And when I look over my shoulder
Expecting support from a familiar source in tough times
I know who'll be on the other side
Anticipating specific support during challenges
And things will get trashy until we get to my place
Implying chaos or difficulty before finding comfort at home
And I wonder
Expressing curiosity or uncertainty (repeated)
I wonder if you will ever know
Questioning if the partner comprehends the situation (repeated)
I never wanted you to go
Desiring the partner not to leave (repeated)
No I don't think so I don't think so
Emphatically denying belief in the partner's departure (repeated)
Or how much, how much I've been wishing we could make it work
Expressing longing for the relationship to succeed (repeated)
Or forget it for a minute and how bad it hurts
Acknowledging the pain while wishing to overlook it momentarily (repeated)
And I don't know how and I don't know how
Feeling clueless about resolution or understanding (repeated)
