Who Are You Gonna Run To
Love Unraveled: Matt Willis' Search for Connection in 'Who Are You Gonna Run To'
Lyrics
I've taken all the locks from the door
I have removed all the locks from the door.
And I've picked up all your clothes from the floor
I have cleaned up all your clothes from the floor.
I'm feeling all fingers and thumbs
I feel clumsy or awkward, indicated by "all fingers and thumbs."
And I'm gonna need a beat from the drums
I need a rhythm or motivation, symbolized by "a beat from the drums."
I was gonna make a difference today
I had plans to make a positive impact today.
I was gonna go and jump on a plane
I intended to take action, perhaps by traveling on a plane.
But who you gonna run to?
Questioning who the person will turn to in times of need.
Who you gonna run to?
Repeating the question of who the person will seek for support.
I was gonna call you up on the phone
I considered calling on the phone.
But the thought of watching TV alone
The idea of watching TV alone discouraged me.
Yeah who you gonna run to?
Raising the question again about who the person will turn to.
'Cause I'm the one who loves you
Asserting that the speaker is the one who loves the person.
Can't we pick up where we started?
Suggesting a desire to resume a relationship from where it began.
Can't we be adults about it?
Advocating for mature and responsible behavior in handling the situation.
What you saying? What you take me for?
Questioning the sincerity or intentions of the other person.
I kinda get the feeling we've been here before I know
Sensing a familiarity with the current situation, possibly indicating a recurring issue.
Let's do something about it
Encouraging action to address the situation.
Cause I just wanna let you know
Expressing a desire to communicate feelings.
Have you got enough for the cab?
Asking if there is enough money for a cab, suggesting a potential departure.
'Cause I gave you everything that I have
Highlighting the speaker's significant contributions to the relationship.
Yeah who you gonna run to?
Reiterating the question of who the person will turn to.
Who you gonna run to?
Repeating the inquiry about seeking support from someone else.
Amazing what a difference a day makes
Noting the impact of a day on the situation.
Don't you say we're gonna be mates
Rejecting the idea of just being friends.
Yeah who you gonna run to?
Posing the question of who the person will turn to in a challenging moment.
'Cause I'm the one who loves you
Emphasizing the speaker's role as the one who loves.
Can't we pick up where we started?
Reiterating the desire to restart from the beginning.
Can't we be adults about it?
Calling for a mature and responsible approach to the situation.
What you saying? What you take me for?
Questioning the sincerity or intentions of the other person.
I kinda get the feeling we've been here before I know
Recognizing a sense of déjà vu or repetition in the relationship.
Let's do something about it
Advocating for proactive measures to address the issues.
'Cause I just wanna let you know
Reiterating the intention to communicate feelings.
I've taken all the locks from the door
Repeating the action of removing locks from the door.
And I've picked up all your clothes from the floor
Repeating the action of picking up clothes from the floor.
I've taken all the locks from the door
Reiterating the removal of locks from the door.
And I've picked up all your clothes from the floor
