Lyrics
Only ever been good at falling in love
Expressing a history of being proficient in falling in love.
When I'm with you I feel like a genius
Feeling exceptionally intelligent when in the presence of the person mentioned.
Tracing out your freckles like stars
Admiring and connecting freckles on the person's skin to stars.
Making out at the back of your car
Engaging in intimate moments at the rear of a car.
Calloused hands out, you're caressing my spine
Experiencing physical touch with calloused hands on the spine.
Whisper in my ear 'baby baby your mine'
Receiving affectionate whispers in the ear.
Feeling that I gotta give up
Feeling a sense of giving up.
Salt water flowing into my cup
Metaphorically describing emotional pain with "salt water" flowing into a cup.
Oh remember when you told me that you were a bird
Recalling a moment when the person claimed to be a bird, free and uncertain.
Floating in the wind, so unsure where to turn
Reflecting on the person taking a daring plunge, while the speaker couldn't follow.
Then you took a dive from the sky
Repetition of questioning why the person treated the speaker in a certain way.
I chased after you but I couldn't fly
-Oh baby baby, why you do me that way
-Oh baby baby, why you do me that way
-Oh baby baby, why you do me that way
-Oh baby baby, why you do me that way
-I thought about you today oh
Thinking about the person but refraining from texting, choosing to pray instead.
But I couldn't text
Imagining the person's well-being and anticipating a future meeting.
So I decided to pray
-I'll see you on the parallels
-I imagine you're having fun
-Angels say that you're okay
-See you at the rising of the sun
-Oh baby baby why you do me that way
Continuing to question the person's actions and expressing confusion.
Oh baby baby, why you do me that way
-Oh baby baby, why you do me that way oh
-Oh baby baby, why you do me that way
-Oh baby baby, why you do me that way
-Baby why you do me like that
-We was moving down the highway
Recalling a fast-paced relationship, using driving metaphors, and realizing potential danger.
You said we wouldn't crash
-Baby we was going too fast
-Didn't notice till I seen you
-With your foot up on the dash
-That was brash, my baby that was brash
-How you threw me in the ocean like ash
-Moving fast baby, we was gonna crash
-That was brash, my baby that was brash
Describing the abrupt and thoughtless actions of the person as "brash."
God damn it that was brash
-Why you gotta throw me in the ocean like ash
-Tell me why you always gotta love me then you dash
-That was brash my baby, that was brash
-That was brash my baby, that was brash
Repetition emphasizing the impulsive nature of the person.
Listening to songs in your white 44
Referencing a specific moment involving a white 44 and reflecting on life's unexpected turns, leading to being solo.
Something 'bout a bull and a matador
-Funny how the way life goes
-Never thought that I would roll solo
-So solo
-Solo
-Solo
Repetition emphasizing the speaker's solitude.
