Warning Sign
Love's Warning: Navigating Heartbreak Amidst Midnight Traffic
Lyrics
I don't like the way she looks at you
I am uncomfortable with the way she looks at you
Think you're gonna make a move soon
I anticipate that you will make a move soon
I pretend it doesn't get under my skin
I pretend that her actions don't bother me
As you entertain her conversation
As you engage in conversation with her
She sees glitter in your eyes
She perceives excitement or attraction in your eyes
Why am I surprised
Expressing surprise at the situation
You want her
You desire her to transform into something more
To turn into something
Expressing uncertainty about that desire
But I'm so sure
Confident that she can't fix you like I thought I could
She can't fix you like you
She can't fulfill your needs as I thought I could
Thought I would
I had expectations that were not met
I'm no neurologist
Humorous reference to not being a neurologist (not an expert)
But I really thought we were good
I believed we were in a good place
You had me in line
You had me in a vulnerable position
That should've been my warning sign
Realization that being in line was a warning sign
Thinking about you taking her downtown
Imagining you taking her to the city center
Holding hands and sneaking around
Engaging in intimate activities secretly
The midnight traffic on the 101
Reference to the delay in time without you by my side
Is taking longer now that you're not riding shotgun
Feeling the absence of your presence
Oh I'm crying again
Expressing emotional distress
Cuz you told me she's just a friend
Disheartened as you claimed she's just a friend
You want her
You desire her to transform into something more
To turn into something
Expressing uncertainty about that desire
But I'm so sure
Confident that she can't fix you like I thought I could
She can't fix you like you
She can't fulfill your needs as I thought I could
Thought I would
I had expectations that were not met
I'm no neurologist
Humorous reference to not being a neurologist (not an expert)
But I really thought we were good
I believed we were in a good place
You had me in line
You had me in a vulnerable position
That should've been my
Realization that being in line was a warning sign
You've always got someone in line
Acknowledging a pattern of having someone in line
What a warning sign
Describing the situation as a warning sign
