Lyrics

Seems like no one is surprising

Expressing a lack of surprise in current situations.

Anymore, it's not that I'm

Clarifying that the lack of surprise doesn't indicate ingratitude.

Ungrateful, I'm just a little bored

Admitting to feeling a bit bored despite being self-sufficient.

Sure I'm self sufficient blah blah

Mentioning self-sufficiency but expressing a desire for more.

Independent. Truthfully I've got

Asserting independence but acknowledging the existence of a void.

Some space. I want that

Expressing a wish for a man to fill the emotional space.

Man to fill it

Leaving space for interpretation regarding the desired qualities of the man.


Don't need another friend

Declaring a lack of need for additional friends.

Let's say for instance

Suggesting a scenario for illustration.

And as a rule

Establishing a personal rule or principle.

I don't believe

Expressing skepticism or disbelief.

Don't do long distance

Stating a reluctance to engage in long-distance relationships.

So I'm looking for a sailor or an arson expert

Expressing a preference for specific qualities in a man.

Someone I can tell them, say

Desiring a person with whom she can share thoughts.


I want to be blown away

Expressing a desire to be profoundly impressed or moved.

Blow me away

Reiterating the desire to be emotionally affected.

I want to be blown away

Repetition of the desire to be blown away emotionally.

I want to be blown away

Reiteration of the desire for a powerful emotional experience.

Blow me away

Repeating the desire to be blown away emotionally.

I want to be blown away

Reiteration of the longing for a profound emotional impact.


I know I don't look it

Admitting a possible misperception of personal traits.

But I can cook

Revealing an unexpected skill (cooking) contrary to appearances.

I'm really pretty simple I

Describing oneself as simple and straightforward.

Like what I should

Expressing preferences in a straightforward manner.

You'd think it be really easy

Highlighting the potential difficulty of finding what one desires.

If it was I would

Stating a willingness to pursue desires if they were easily attainable.

But people seem too crazy

Commenting on the perceived craziness of people.

So I read a book

Turning to literature (reading a book) as a way to cope with reality.


I don't want to send a search party

Expressing a desire to avoid actively searching for a partner.

If he's smart I can wait

Expressing patience in waiting for a smart partner to find her.

And he'll find me

Anticipating a partner's discovery without active searching.

So for now. I'll just say what

Delaying the expression of specific desires until later.

I'm lookin' for, one more time

Reiterating the desire for a particular type of partner.


I want to be blown away

Reiterating the desire to be profoundly impressed or moved.

Blow me away

Reiteration of the desire for a powerful emotional experience.

I want to be blown away

Repeating the desire to be blown away emotionally.

I want to be blown away

Reiteration of the longing for a profound emotional impact.

Blow me away

I want to be blown away

Reiteration of the longing for a profound emotional impact.

Blow me away

Repeating the desire to be blown away emotionally.

I want to be blown away

Final repetition of the longing for a profound emotional
