Too Much Water
Love's Currents: Navigating Heartbreak Through Flowing Waters
Lyrics
Well, I've been thinkin' 'bout you all night long
Reflecting on thoughts about the person throughout the night
What you been a-doin' to me
Questioning the impact of the person's actions on the speaker
You told me that you love me, I thought that you loved me
Recalling the person's declaration of love, questioning its sincerity
But you never was true to me
Expressing disappointment in the person's lack of truthfulness
Well, they say you're gettin' tired of all your runnin' around
Indicating rumors about the person growing tired of their current lifestyle
You're wantin' me to settle down
Sensing a desire from the person for the speaker to settle down
It too much water run under the bridge
Referring to a significant amount of time and experiences that have passed
And I'm too mad to come back now
Expressing anger and refusal to return due to past actions
But there's things I've been a-wantin' to tell you
Expressing a need to communicate important things to the person
There's a lot of things you should know
Highlighting a significant amount of information that the person should be aware of
And I don't think I'll wait for a, a later date
Rejecting the idea of waiting for a later time to communicate
Now's the time to let you know
Emphasizing the urgency to convey important information now
'Cause a-too many nights, I waited at your door
Describing waiting for the person at their door on numerous nights
While you run around on me
Expressing dissatisfaction with the person's unfaithfulness
But I got to thinkin' my ship started sinkin'
Realizing the decline of the speaker's situation and deciding to take action
And I thought I'd better swim the sea
Metaphorically choosing to swim the sea instead of sinking with the ship
So now my telephones ringin', pretty girls singin'
Noting the speaker's increased popularity and attention from others
So go ahead and run around
Encouraging the person to continue their actions
It's just too much water run under the bridge
Reiterating the significant passage of time and experiences
And I'm too mad to come back now
Reaffirming the speaker's anger and determination not to return
Yes, there's things I've been a-wantin' to tell you
Repeating the need to communicate important information to the person
There's a lot of things you should know
Reiterating the wealth of information that the person should be aware of
And I don't think I'll wait for a, a later date
Rejecting the idea of delaying the communication to a later date
Now's the time to let you know
Emphasizing the urgency to convey important information now (repeated)
'Cause a-too many nights, I waited at your door
Describing waiting for the person at their door on numerous nights (repeated)
While you run around on me
Expressing dissatisfaction with the person's unfaithfulness (repeated)
But I got to thinkin' my ship started sinkin'
Realizing the decline of the speaker's situation and deciding to take action (repeated)
And I thought I'd better swim the sea
Metaphorically choosing to swim the sea instead of sinking with the ship (repeated)
So now my telephones ringin', pretty girls singin'
Noting the speaker's increased popularity and attention from others (repeated)
So go ahead and run around
Encouraging the person to continue their actions (repeated)
It's just too much water run under the bridge
Reiterating the significant passage of time and experiences (repeated)
And I'm too mad to come back now
Reaffirming the speaker's anger and determination not to return (repeated)
