Lyrics
You said this isn't working, got to move on
You expressed that the current relationship is not functioning, and it's time to move forward.
You maybe right, perfection this is not
Acknowledging the possibility that your assessment about the relationship not being perfect might be accurate.
But what's the perfect love like, a flower or a flame?
Pondering the nature of ideal love, comparing it to a flower or a flame.
You got something you want everything and never what you got
Reflecting on the tendency to desire more than what is currently possessed.
'Cause how many times how many times how many times
Raising the question of how frequently one can experience the emotion of falling in love.
Can you fall in love?
Pondering the limits of falling in love.
And how many loves how many loves how many loves
Asking about the quantity of loves needed to constitute a fulfilling life.
Make a life?
Questioning the number of loves required to create a meaningful life.
Sweet happiness they say comes in doses
Exploring the notion that happiness comes in measured amounts.
Are they numbered and what's left of my stock?
Wondering if these doses of happiness are finite and contemplating personal stock.
Thinking three am thoughts, in the three am dark
Engaging in introspective thoughts during the early morning hours.
Am I listening to my heartbeat or the ticking of the clock?
Questioning whether the sound heard is the heartbeat or the ticking of the clock.
How many times how many times how many times
Reiterating the inquiry into the frequency of falling in love.
Can you fall in love?
Continuing to explore the limitations of falling in love.
And how many loves how many loves how many loves
Asking about the quantity of loves necessary for a fulfilling life.
Make a life?
Questioning the number of loves required for a meaningful life.
Tell me how many times how many times how many times
Persisting in the query about the frequency of falling in love.
Can you fall in love?
Continuing the exploration of the quantity of loves needed for a fulfilling life.
And how many loves how many loves how many loves
Reiterating the question about the number of loves required for a meaningful life.
Make a life?
Continuing to ponder the quantity of loves necessary for a fulfilling life.
The girl behind the counter made his heart throb
Introducing a narrative element with a person behind a counter evoking emotions in someone.
He paid and got his change and turned to go
Describing a transaction where the person receives change after paying.
Thinks, he'll ask her out tomorrow
Expressing the intention to ask the person out the next day.
But tomorrow she'll be gone
Anticipating that the opportunity to ask the person out will be lost by the next day.
It will take three weeks 'till he won't dream about her anymore
Projecting the duration it will take for the person to stop dreaming about the encounter.
Thinking how many times how many times how many times
Repeating the questioning of the frequency of falling in love.
Can you fall in love?
Continuing to explore the limits of falling in love.
And how many loves how many loves how many loves
Asking again about the quantity of loves necessary for a fulfilling life.
Make a life?
Reiterating the question about the number of loves required for a meaningful life.
How many times how many times how many times
Persisting in the inquiry into the frequency of falling in love.
Can you fall in love?
Continuing to explore the limitations of falling in love.
And how many loves how many loves how many loves
Repeating the questioning of the quantity of loves necessary for a fulfilling life.
