Lyrics
It was a sticky situation wrapped in poor communication
Describing a difficult situation entangled in poor communication.
We were standing in your doorway making shitty conversation
Recalling a moment at the doorstep with awkward conversation.
And when you sat across the sofa from me I knew it was over
Realizing that the relationship is ending while sitting on a sofa.
I called Noah in the car I and he could hear my broken heart
Contacting a friend (Noah) and sharing the pain of a broken heart.
And I probably could have had you if I'd just spent time alone like I said that I was going to
Reflecting on missed opportunities due to not spending enough time alone as promised.
Well, now at least I know
Expressing newfound understanding after the breakup.
You don't ever take for granted something that feels like home
Highlighting the importance of not taking a comfortable relationship for granted.
You really felt like home
Affirming that the person felt like home in the relationship.
You really ought to know
Stressing the importance of the partner knowing this feeling.
I can't even see your face these days without getting a heart attack
Expressing the emotional impact of seeing the ex-partner's face, causing heartache.
I don't need to check on my phone, I know you're never gonna call me back
Assuming the certainty of not receiving a call back and the associated disappointment.
I don't even know what I'm doing here
Expressing confusion about being in the current situation.
But wouldn't have come if I knew you were here cause I can't even see your face these days without getting a heart attack
Reiterating the difficulty of encountering the ex-partner's face without emotional distress.
I know I could barely speak at that party at the beach mhm
Recalling a challenging moment of speechlessness at a beach party.
There were tears behind my glasses that I didn't let you see mhm
Concealing tears behind glasses during the mentioned party.
It was dumb to tell Sienna don't put hands all over with me
Regretting advising someone named Sienna against physical contact.
When you showed up with somebody and he sat where I should be
Noticing the ex-partner with someone new, taking the place where the speaker should be.
And when Dancing Queen just started I looked over to you
Referring to a moment during the song "Dancing Queen" where the speaker looked at the ex-partner.
But you already had your arms in the arms of someone new
Observing the ex-partner already in the arms of someone else during the event.
And Dylan pulled me to the ocean, and he said, you've got to choose
Being advised by someone named Dylan to make a choice, possibly regarding moving on.
But he was biased too
Acknowledging the bias of the advice giver (Dylan).
If I'm ever lucky enough again to find something like what we had
Expressing the hope to find a similar relationship again in the future.
I swear it'll be the last time I have to say goodbye
Committing that if a similar relationship is found, it will be cherished without saying goodbye.
