Intoxicating Confessions: Love, Heartbreak, and Drunk Dialing in 'Little Bit Drunk'
Lyrics
I'm a little bit drunk,
The speaker acknowledges being slightly intoxicated.
I've had one too many, can you pick me up?
Asking someone to pick them up due to having consumed too much alcohol.
Take me back to the place where we fell in love,
Expressing a desire to revisit the place where the speaker and someone else once fell in love.
Between the sheets, on the first floor.
Referencing a specific location where intimate moments were shared ("Between the sheets, on the first floor").
A place I've been so many times before,
Reflecting on the familiarity of the mentioned place and how frequently the speaker has been there before.
It's been so long since you let me walk out the door with no reason.
Recalling a past instance where the speaker left without a clear reason and it's been a long time since then.
And so many lies in between.
Noting the presence of many lies in the relationship history.
But if I drunk dialled your number,
Contemplating the idea of drunk-dialing the person in question.
Would you pick up the phone?
Pondering whether the person would answer the phone in such a situation.
I know I should know better and leave well enough alone.
Acknowledging the speaker's awareness that they should make better decisions and avoid unnecessary contact.
But could you tell me the truth,
Pleading for the truth from the person being addressed.
Are you better off without?
Questioning whether the person is better off without the speaker in their life.
Oh Henry, I'm a little bit drunk can you help me out?
Directly addressing someone named Henry, expressing a need for assistance while being inebriated.
You broke my heart,
Stating that the person addressed (Henry) has broken the speaker's heart.
But isn't that how all good love stories start?
Reflecting on the common theme in love stories where challenges arise but the hero finds a way to prevent the relationship from falling apart.
The hero always finds a way to stop them falling apart,
Emphasizing the hope that a resolution can be found to prevent a tragic ending.
And in the end, they all ride off in to the sunset.
Describing an idealized conclusion where both parties reconcile and ride off into a happy ending.
But if I drunk dialled your number,
Repeating the idea of drunk-dialing the person and questioning if they would answer.
Would you pick up the phone?
Reiterating the speaker's awareness of making better decisions and avoiding unnecessary contact.
I know I should know better and leave well enough alone.
Continuing to question whether the person is better off without the speaker.
But could you tell me the truth,
Repeating the plea for honesty from the person being addressed.
Are you better off without?
Repeating the question of whether the person is better off without the speaker.
Oh Henry, I'm a little bit drunk can you help me out?
Repeating the direct address to Henry, seeking assistance while being inebriated.
Cause if I drunk dialled your number,
Repeating the idea of drunk-dialing the person but asserting an intention to tell the truth.
I'd tell you the truth.
Expressing a commitment to honestly communicate the speaker's feelings.
That I've been counting off the days, since I lost you.
Admitting to counting the days since the speaker lost the person, indicating emotional difficulty moving on.
It's not healthy or helping but what am I to do?
Recognizing that such behavior is neither healthy nor helpful but feeling uncertain about what to do.
Oh Henry, you cheated on me said yourself you'll never be true,
Accusing Henry of infidelity and expressing doubt about his ability to be true.
Oh Henry, I'm a little bit drunk and I still love you.
Repeating the plea for help from Henry, despite being inebriated, and confessing enduring love.
I'm a little bit drunk,
Repeating the initial acknowledgment of being a little bit drunk and requesting assistance.
I've had one too many, can you pick me up?
Reiterating the need for someone to pick up the speaker due to excessive alcohol consumption.
