It Ain't Me
Love's Rollercoaster: Navigating Life's Twists with Jason Cross
Lyrics
Yeah I love you but I don't love you all the way like you think I should
Expresses love but acknowledges it's not as expected or complete.
I'm sorry for the things I said or did that made you believe
Apology for actions creating false beliefs about future commitment.
That someday I would give you everything I had and more
No promise to give everything, contrary to earlier impressions.
Yeah give you all of me and pick your heart up off the floor
Recognition of personal limitations in providing complete emotional support.
But in this life there's ups and downs
Reflection on life's inevitable highs and lows.
And silly boys that fool around
Acknowledgment of immature behavior by some individuals.
With hearts of gold and bright shinin' souls like yours
Describes individuals with good hearts but unpredictable actions, like the listener.
It'll come around when you least expect
Belief that positive changes occur unexpectedly.
Its all part of the plan cause and effect
Life's events are interconnected and have consequences.
Somebody's gonna come along and give you what you need
Assurance that someone else will meet the listener's needs.
But baby it ain't me
Emphatic statement that the singer is not the one to fulfill those needs.
I saw your name glowing on my phone and
Notification of the listener trying to contact the singer.
I had a feeling you were feeling alone so
Recognition of the listener's loneliness.
I picked up you said can we talk I said yeah
Agreement to talk and offer support.
You came over and I didn't even ask
Surprise at the listener's visit without explicit invitation.
Now we're moving on to our second glass
Transition to a more relaxed and intimate setting.
Don't you know what they say is true
Advice against continuing activities after a certain point.
Nothing good goes down after two
General warning about the consequences of actions after a certain time.
Cus in this life there's ups and downs
Reiteration of life's unpredictable nature.
And silly boys that fool around
Repetition of the idea of immature behavior affecting relationships.
With hearts of gold and bright shinin' souls like yours
Similar description of individuals with good intentions but erratic actions.
It'll come around when you least expect
Belief in positive changes occurring unexpectedly, echoing earlier sentiments.
It's all part of the plan cause and effect
Emphasizes the interconnectedness and consequences of life events.
Somebody's gonna come around and give you what you need
Assurance that someone else will fulfill the listener's needs.
But baby it ain't me
Reiteration that the singer is not the one to fulfill those needs.
No baby it ain't me
Reaffirmation that the singer is not the right person for the listener's needs.
You say the word and girl I'm gone
Offer to leave if the listener desires.
But I'll say yes every time you call
Admission of saying yes consistently to the listener's calls.
And it's not fair but I can't help myself
Acknowledgment of unfairness in the singer's actions.
This runnin' around back and forth we just
Recognition of the tumultuous nature of the relationship.
Can't seem to stay on course
Expression of difficulty in maintaining stability.
And I don't wanna hurt you anymore
Declaration of a desire not to cause further harm.
Cus in this life there's ups and downs
Reiteration of life's unpredictable nature.
And silly boys that fool around
Repetition of the theme of immature behavior affecting relationships.
With hearts of gold and sunshinin' souls like yours
Similar description of individuals with good intentions but unpredictable actions.
It'll come around when you least expect
Belief in positive changes happening unexpectedly.
It's all part of the plan cause and effect
Emphasis on the interconnectedness and consequences of life events.
Somebody's gonna come around and give you what you need
Reassurance that someone else will meet the listener's needs.
Yeah somebody's gonna come along and give you what you need
Repetition of the idea that someone else will fulfill the listener's needs.
But baby it ain't me
Final confirmation that the singer is not the right person for the listener's needs.
No baby it ain't me
Reiteration that the singer is not the one to fulfill those needs.
No baby it ain't me
Reaffirmation that the singer is not the right person for the listener's needs.
No baby it ain't me
Final statement emphasizing that the singer is not suitable for the listener's needs.
