Lyrics

Right on time

Being punctual

On my way to see you

Heading to meet someone

I know you're on your shift when I drop by

Acknowledging the person is at work during the visit

For a while

Expressing a desire for extended time together

I hope that I can steal you

Hoping to have the person's attention

From the people blocking you from my sight

Wanting to overcome obstacles to see the person


I could blame it on all of the pretty ladies

Attributing distractions to attractive individuals

But i know it's not their fault if you're so light

Acknowledging personal responsibility for feelings

And never linger far too long in any place

Recognizing a tendency to not stay in one place for long

Just please never get out of my sight

Emphasizing the desire for continuous presence


You're cold around the edges

Describing the person as emotionally distant

A little complicated

Characterizing the person as complex

If I could save some time for you I would

Expressing a willingness to allocate time if possible

But you're not mine to have

Acknowledging the person is not romantically attainable

And winter's just a season

Comparing the person to a seasonal change

You'll end like every season always ends

Anticipating an inevitable end to the connection


They're so quick to blame it an all the pretty ladies

Blaming external factors for relationship challenges

When it's you who brings the worst out of everyone

Attributing negative influence to the person

It's your fault I like you selflessly enough to

Admitting selfless affection despite knowing unreciprocation

To know you're never going to be mine

Accepting the impossibility of a romantic relationship

I know you're never going to be mine

Acknowledging the unattainability of the person
