Lyrics
But tonight i just wanna hold you
Expressing a desire to embrace or be close to someone tonight.
Might be the last words that i told you
Suggesting a sense of urgency, possibly hinting at a farewell.
You showed me how i'll never know you whoa
Reflecting on the challenge of truly understanding the other person.
And now its time for me to show you
Acknowledging the need to reciprocate and reveal oneself.
I get in my car and
Beginning a journey, possibly a metaphorical one.
I drive really fast
Speeding away, using driving as a coping mechanism to forget.
It helps me forget about you and about the past
Describing a strategy to overcome memories of the person and the past.
I'll have a party
Planning to socialize and divert attention with friends.
I'm calling my friends
Seeking support from social connections to move on.
I need to move on, I don't want to be depressed
Expressing a desire to avoid sinking into depression.
Sometimes i still think of you
Admitting occasional thoughts about the person despite efforts.
But no one knows
Keeping these thoughts private, possibly hiding emotions.
And I wanna go back to the time when we were close
Yearning to return to a time of closeness in the past.
All that was, it was my fault
Taking responsibility for past mistakes or problems.
So I think I should let you go
Deciding to let go and move forward.
But tonight i just wanna hold you
Reiterating the desire to hold the person tonight.
Might be the last words that i told you
Emphasizing the possible finality of the spoken words.
You showed me how i'll never know you whoa
