Back of My Hand
Echoes of Unspoken Bonds
Lyrics
I'll be seeing you tomorrow
The speaker anticipates seeing the person again soon.
I'll be seeing you again
Reaffirmation of expecting to meet the person once more.
God knows we've said so little
Expressing how little they've communicated or shared.
I'd go so far as to call you a friend
Acknowledging a level of closeness, referring to the person as a friend.
But there's something in your ways
Noticing something intriguing or captivating about the person's mannerisms or behavior.
That keeps me vying for a connection
Feeling drawn to establishing a deeper connection with the person.
And I know you feel the same
Believing the person reciprocates the desire for connection.
It's become a two-way addiction
Describing the mutual attraction as a two-way addiction.
Come on and give me your heart
Urging the person to open up and share their feelings.
Write it on the back of my hand
Metaphorically requesting the person's commitment, likening it to writing on the back of the speaker's hand.
And say it's forever
Desiring a declaration of enduring commitment.
Well we never really said goodbye
Highlighting an unresolved departure without a proper goodbye.
Kinda left it in the air
Leaving the situation unclear or hanging.
And as the train pulled off I knew you loved her more
Realizing that the person may love someone else more deeply.
Oh no no no no
Asserting a lack of fear regarding potential loss.
I'm not afraid to lose
Reiterating a lack of fear in the face of potential loss.
Oh no no no no
Expressing a willingness to adapt or change their approach.
Just give me some time and I'll walk to a different groove
Willingness to adjust and find a new path or perspective.
Go on and give her your heart
Encouraging the person to commit to someone else, symbolically on the other person's hand.
Write it on the back of her hand
Emphasizing the desire for the person's enduring commitment to someone else.
And say it's forever
Seeking a promise of everlasting commitment to another.
Go on and give her your heart
Repeating the encouragement for commitment to another individual.
Write it on the back of her hand
Reiteration of the desire for commitment to someone else.
And say it's forever
Continuing to seek a promise of lasting commitment to another.
That's alright, that's ok, the thoughts of you are leaving
Acceptance or resignation that thoughts of the person are fading away.
That's alright, that's ok, the thoughts of you are leaving
Repeating the acceptance that thoughts of the person are fading.
Anyway, are fading anyway
Confirming the gradual fading of thoughts about the person.
Come on and give her your heart
Asking for commitment to the other person, similar to before but directed at someone else.
Write it on the back of her hand
Requesting enduring commitment to another individual.
And say it's forever
Seeking a promise of everlasting commitment to someone else.
Come on and give me your heart
Repeatedly asking the person for their heart, emphasizing the request.
Come on and give me your heart
Repetition of the plea for the person's heart.
Come on and give me your heart
Continuing the plea for the person's heart.
