Lyrics
So you wanna talk
Expressing a desire to communicate
Well, let's get to chattin', girl
Inviting the girl to engage in conversation
I said, I had enough
Stating that the speaker has reached a limit or threshold
I swear
An oath emphasizing the sincerity of the previous statement
You ain't gotta answer much
Assuring the girl that she doesn't need to provide detailed answers
Just tell me if I cross your mind
Asking if the speaker occupies the girl's thoughts
And maybe it's me
Expressing a possibility of misunderstanding
Misunderstanding this, but I just can't convince myself
Struggling to believe in a different interpretation
Do you miss all the things we did? Oh
Questioning if the girl misses shared experiences
You know that you need me
Asserting the girl's dependence on the speaker
It's easy to see
Claiming the evident nature of the girl's need for the speaker
Let me know how you got
Requesting information about the girl's proficiency in being alone
So good at being solo
Expressing admiration for the girl's ability to be independent
Anytime you're not around
Conveying a sense of emptiness in the absence of the girl
It feels like I've got nowhere to go
Describing a feeling of aimlessness without the girl
Feels like I'm dancin' alone
Suggesting a sensation of dancing alone, metaphorically
Oh
Reiterating the feeling of dancing alone
Feels like I'm dancin' alone
Emphasizing the solitary dance experience
Ah
Expressing emotion or realization
Maybe I was mistaken
Acknowledging a possible misconception
For thinkin' that you would bite my line
Admitting a misjudgment about the girl's interest
Just when I thought I had a handle on ya
Discovering unexpected aspects about the girl
You tell me that you just don't have the time
Learning that the girl lacks time for the speaker
The things that you say to me, oh
Describing the impact of the girl's words
They knock me right off my feet
Expressing the profound effect of the girl's statements
And I know
Acknowledging a willingness to deceive to maintain a connection
I'll lie through my teeth
Admitting a potential for dishonesty
In hopes just to keep you around
Using deception to retain the girl's presence
Let me know how you got
Reiterating the inquiry about the girl's ability to be alone
So good at being solo
Complimenting the girl's skill in independence
Anytime you're not around
Expressing a sense of emptiness in the girl's absence
It feels like I've got nowhere to go
Describing a feeling of aimlessness without the girl
Feels like I'm dancin' alone
Reiterating the sensation of dancing alone
Oh
Emphasizing the feeling of dancing alone
Feels like I'm dancin' alone
Reiterating the emotional experience of dancing alone
Ah
Expressing emotion or realization
Feels like I'm dancin' alone
Reiterating the feeling of dancing alone
Oh
Emphasizing the solitary dance experience
Feels like I'm dancin' alone
Expressing emotion or realization
Ah
Concluding with a sense of realization or emotion
