I Never Thought Of You That Way
Unforeseen Reflections: Contemplating Past Bonds
Lyrics
A solemn figure in the park
A person standing alone in the park, appearing serious or solemn.
The wind that moves a broken swing
Describing the wind that moves a broken swing, suggesting a sense of abandonment or neglect.
Things we bury in the dark
Referring to hidden or suppressed emotions and experiences.
The snow that covers everything
The snow symbolizing a covering or concealing of various aspects in life.
So this is someone's wedding day
Observing someone's wedding day, a significant and joyful occasion.
I never thought of you that way
Expressing surprise at thinking about someone in a romantic or unexpected way.
One time, when we were friends
Recalling a past time when the speaker and the person were friends.
I believe we almost kissed
Recalling a moment when a romantic connection almost occurred.
If I could do it all again
Expressing a desire to go back in time and take missed chances.
I'd take the chances that I missed
Regretting missed opportunities and wishing to change the past.
And you'll forgive me when I say
Acknowledging the need for forgiveness for not considering the person romantically.
I never thought of you that way
Reiterating the surprise or realization of not thinking of the person romantically.
I never thought of you that way
Repeating the sentiment of never having considered the person romantically.
I never thought of you
Emphasizing the speaker's lack of romantic thoughts about the person.
Somehow I just fell behind
Feeling left behind or out of sync in a relationship.
Once I was unaware
Reflecting on a time when the speaker was oblivious to romantic feelings.
But lately you've been on my mind
Recently, the person has been on the speaker's mind.
Little things that lovers do
Noticing small romantic gestures that couples engage in.
I have seen them holding hands
Observing couples holding hands, possibly feeling a sense of longing or nostalgia.
From this sheltered point of view
Commenting on the speaker's perspective and how it influences their feelings.
It's not surprising where I stand
Expressing surprise at the current emotional state of feeling alone and misled.
Alone and being lead astray
Feeling isolated and led astray in the absence of expected romantic feelings.
I never thought of you that way
Reiterating the surprise or realization of not thinking of the person romantically.
I never thought of you that way
Repeating the sentiment of never having considered the person romantically.
I never thought of you that way
Emphasizing the speaker's lack of romantic thoughts about the person.
