Lyrics

I bet you're on a date with your girlfriend yet again

I suspect you are once again on a date with your girlfriend.

I bet you split dessert for one while holding hands

I imagine you're sharing a dessert for one while holding hands with her.

I oughta stop looking at it everyday on Instagram

I feel the need to stop looking at their activities on Instagram every day.

Didn't really bother me when I was younger but here I am

It didn't bother me when I was younger, but now it does.

I don't need a person but damn it would be nice

While I don't necessarily need a person, it would be nice to have one.

We'd be dancing round the kitchen and you'd pull me in tight

Imagining a scenario where we would dance in the kitchen and share an intimate moment.

I've been working so hard on myself

I've dedicated significant effort to self-improvement.

That I finally wanna share her with somebody else

Now, I feel ready to share my life with someone else.

I can't help but feel this wretched jealousy

Experiencing a painful sense of jealousy.

When they look into each other's eyes so lovingly

Feeling uneasy when witnessing the affectionate gazes between others.

Every time I get more and more worried

Increasing worry with each instance.

That it's never gonna happen and I just might be

Concern that the desired relationship may never materialize.

Somebody whose meant to be lonely

Expressing a fear of being destined for loneliness.

I don't need a person but damn it would be nice

Reiteration of the desire for companionship.

Getting kisses on my forehead before you say goodnight

Envisioning the tenderness of receiving forehead kisses before bedtime.

I've been working so hard on myself

Continued dedication to personal growth.

That I finally want to share her with somebody else

Expressing a readiness to share life with someone new.

So I'm spending all my time sifting through all these resumes

Investing time in reviewing potential partners through resumes.

They look so good on paper but there's no spark off the page

Not finding a genuine connection with the candidates on paper.

I wanna fall in but it doesn't happen very often

Desiring to fall in love, though it rarely happens.

And every time it does it's for the wrong person

Expressing a pattern of falling for the wrong person.

Every time every time

Repetition emphasizing the recurrence of the mentioned pattern.

All my life all my life

Emphasizing the repetition throughout one's life.

Every time Every time

Reiteration of the recurring pattern in relationships.

I know I don't need a person but damn it would be nice

Reaffirming the desire for companionship despite not needing it.

Cuddle up in your bed on a cold winters night

Imagining the comfort of cuddling on a cold winter night.

I've been working so hard on myself

Continued commitment to self-improvement.

And I finally wanna share her with somebody else

Expressing a renewed readiness to share life with someone else.

Somebody else

Affirming the desire to share life with somebody new.

Somebody else

Repetition emphasizing the longing for companionship.

I finally wanna share her with somebody else

Final confirmation of the readiness to share life with another person.
