Unveiling Love's Turmoil: Jordan Leyva's 'Would've Been Bali'
Lyrics
For what its worth sorry you wasted your time with me
Expressing regret for wasting the listener's time.
If love is cursed then we're both probably bound to be
Suggesting that their love is troubled or doomed.
Cause the golden boys in bad shape
Describing someone traditionally considered attractive in a bad situation.
If he takes you by the hand
Hinting at a situation where the listener might be taken by someone else.
Catch yourself leaving with another different man
Noticing the listener leaving with someone new.
You're so typical the way you string me along
Accusing the listener of stringing the speaker along in a typical way.
You're so critical tryna get me alone
Highlighting the listener's critical behavior in trying to isolate the speaker.
But you're not taking me home
Rejecting the idea of going home with the listener.
I was never yours to own
Asserting independence, stating the speaker was never the listener's to own.
You're on your own
Emphasizing that the listener is now alone.
Would it been
Pondering a hypothetical scenario.
Would it been what it always was
Reflecting on what the situation always was.
I would have flown you out to Bali
Expressing a desire to have taken the listener to Bali.
What it been
Repeating the hypothetical scenario.
What it been what you're looking for medicine for a broken heart
Asking if what the listener is seeking is a cure for a broken heart.
Would've been would've been would've been would've been
Reiterating the hypothetical nature of the situation.
Would've been
Repeating the desire for a different outcome.
I wanna dance alone in my room with nothing on my mind
Expressing a wish to dance alone, free from concerns.
I'm over spent and over used and getting used to being black and blue
Admitting fatigue and acceptance of being emotionally and physically hurt.
But I don't know what I'd do for you
Expressing uncertainty about what the speaker would do for the listener.
I've got nothing left to prove to you
Asserting that there's nothing left to prove to the listener.
So we're through
Declaring the end of the relationship.
Yeah we're through
Reiterating the finality of the breakup.
You're so typical the way you string me along
Repeating the accusation of being strung along.
You're so critical tryna get me alone
Reiterating the critical behavior of the listener.
But you're not taking me home
Rejecting the idea of going home with the listener (repeated).
I was never yours to own
Repeating the assertion of independence.
You're on your own

Would it been

Would it been what it always was
Repeating the reflection on the situation.
I would have flown you out to Bali
Repeating the desire to have taken the listener to Bali.
What it been
