Lyrics
This time I think it could be perfect
Hopeful about the potential for perfection in a situation
But you'd push it away
Concern that the opportunity for perfection will be rejected
I came here today with a purpose
Arrived with a clear intention or goal
Should I try or just let it go
Contemplating whether to make an effort or abandon it
'Cause these things I'd like to ask you
Desire to inquire about certain things but unable to articulate them
Are things I can't explain
Feeling unable to explain certain thoughts or emotions
Or should I keep your glance
Questioning whether to maintain someone's attention
Outside the porch last Saturday
Recalling a specific moment outside together
Should I have succumbed to your courtesy
Debating whether politeness should have been yielded to
I could see you were trying to get my attention
Recognizing someone's effort to gain attention
But I pushed it away
Rejecting someone's attempt to connect
This time I think it could be perfect
Reiterating the belief in potential perfection
But you'd push it away
Fear that the potential perfection will be rejected again
Tonight it seemed suddenly perfect
Momentary feeling of things being perfect
Still no promises made
No commitment or guarantees given
The balance of power was shifted
Noticing a change in the balance of influence
Were you trying to let me in
Wondering if the other person was trying to allow entry into their world
Or was I trying so hard
Questioning personal efforts and potential loss of confidence
That all my confidence was lost tonight
Feeling that confidence was compromised due to excessive effort
Confused and regretful, I cracked
Feeling bewildered and remorseful
Swallowed it back
Suppressing emotions or words
And left with no spine intact
Feeling emotionally vulnerable or weakened
Maybe we were meant to see what's right
Speculation about the intended path or outcome
See how this ought to be
Understanding how things should ideally be
Just a taste of life to see what's right
Experimenting or exploring life to understand the correct path
You made sense out of me
Feeling understood or interpreted by someone else
What a shame that we're slipping away now
Regret over the gradual drift or separation
I'm going away now
Expressing departure
Off to see what's out there
Seeking new experiences beyond the current situation
'Cause you're all that's here for me
Recognition of someone's importance
