Mama, it's absurd how we have been apart
Mama, expressing the emotional impact of being separated despite the initial close connection.
When I once was connected to you through my umbilical cord

And every inch of you fed every inch of me, yeah

When I look into your eyes

There's still a part of me that lives inside
Despite the separation, there is a lingering part of the singer within the mother.
I wanna share it with you
Expressing the desire to share this emotional connection with the mother.
I wanna share it with you
-Lover, we share a roof now but we hardly talk
Shifting the focus to a lover, expressing a lack of communication despite living together.
Is this the same girl who'd
Questioning the transformation of the lover, reminiscing about past adventures.
Sneak out at night to steal away in my dad's car
Recalling a time when the lover would sneak out at night, suggesting a shift in behavior.
When every inch of you felt every inch of me
Reiterating the reciprocal connection and the change in the relationship dynamics.
When I look into your eyes
Similar to earlier, expressing the presence of the past within the lover.
There's still a part of her that lives inside
-I wanna share it with you
Repeating the desire to share the emotional connection with the lover.
I wanna share it with you, yeah
-This ain't how life was meant to be
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current state of life, suggesting it deviates from the intended path.
I'm here with you and you're with me
A reminder that both are physically present together, but there is a sense of emotional distance.
But sometimes when I look into your eyes
Reflecting on moments when looking into the lover's eyes triggers strong emotions.
I get all choked up inside
Describing the emotional impact as feeling choked up inside during these moments.
Brother, when we were three or four we'd dirty our feet
Addressing a brother and reminiscing about carefree childhood days.
Never knew no colour lines, class or creed
Highlighting the innocence of childhood, where societal differences were not recognized.
We just played like the whole world should play
Recalling the simplicity of playing without societal constraints.
With every grain of sand that fell upon our knees, yeah
Connecting childhood memories to the tactile experience of playing in the sand.
When I look into your eyes
Applying the same concept as earlier, wanting to see the brother's soul when looking into his eyes.
I wanna see the soul that lives inside
-I wanna share it with you

I wanna share it with you
-I wanna share it with you
-I wanna share it with you, yeah right
-(When I look into your eyes ) alright yeah
Repeating the theme and expressing the desire to see the soul when looking into someone's eyes.
