Lyrics

She said she was going home

Expressing that she declared her intention to go home.

I said I'll be fine by myself

Assuring her that he can manage alone without any issues.

I thought that she wanted me

Believing she desired his company or attention.

But she was thinking something else

Realizing she had different thoughts or intentions.


Now the sun was coming up

Despite the sunrise, unable to discern her true feelings.

Still I couldn't see exactly how she felt

Despite the emerging daylight, uncertainty about her emotions persists.

I thought that she wanted me

Presuming she had a desire for him.

But she was thinking something else

Discovering she had different motives or emotions.


It don't take much to see inside my heart

Stating that he is transparent emotionally.

I was never any good at telling lies

Acknowledging his difficulty in being deceitful.

And it don't take too much to see there ain't too much of me

Admitting there isn't much substance or depth to him.

Here behind these eyes

Implying a lack of complexity or depth behind his eyes.


I miss you when you're gone

Expressing the emotional void experienced in her absence.

Please don't stay gone too long

Pleading for her not to be away for an extended period.


I miss you when you're gone

Reiterating the emotional impact of her absence.

Please don't stay gone too long

Requesting her to return sooner to alleviate the longing.


She said she was going home

Recalling her earlier declaration of going home.

I said I'll be fine by myself

Reassuring her again about his ability to cope alone.

'Cause I thought that she wanted me

Mistakenly assuming she desired his presence.

But she was thinking something else

Realizing once more her intentions were different.


It don't take much to see inside my heart

Highlighting his emotional transparency.

I was never any good at telling lies

Acknowledging his lack of skill in deception.

And it don't take too much to see there ain't too much of me

Admitting there isn't much substance or depth to him.

Here behind these eyes

Reiterating the shallowness or simplicity within him.


I miss you when you're gone

Expressing the recurring sense of loss during her absence.

Please don't stay gone too long

Requesting her not to be away for an extended period (repeated).


I miss you when you're gone

Reiterating the emotional impact of her absence (repeated).

Please don't stay gone too long

Requesting her to return sooner to alleviate the longing (repeated).


I miss you when you're gone

Expressing the ongoing emotional void during her absence.
