Navigating Uncertainty: Nina Cobham's Struggle to Sustain Interest
Lyrics
You’re in my head, I don’t know why
You occupy my thoughts, and I can't explain why
I said tonight I’d go to sleep at a reasonable time
I intended to sleep early tonight
Remind myself you’re not the guy to pick just one
Reminding myself that you're not someone who commits easily
Así que dime lo que quieres, lo que prefieres
So tell me what you want, what you prefer (in Spanish)
you know if you’d prefer it, I can leave you be
If you'd rather, I can leave you alone
I’m questioning your motives, wonder what you’re wanting
Questioning your intentions, curious about what you desire
Why are you being so kind to me?
Wondering why you're being unusually kind to me
I don’t know how to keep you interested, I swear I’m not even that interesting
Expressing uncertainty about how to keep your interest, feeling uninteresting
You say I ought to give myself some more credit but I said it
You suggest I give myself more credit, but my self-doubt persists
Now I’m worried that it’s in your head
Concerned that my earlier statement is on your mind
I don’t know how to keep you interested, en verdad no soy interesante
Reiterating difficulty in keeping your interest, admitting lack of interesting qualities
Surely there’s someone more exciting, a little more inviting, somewhere in your contacts
Speculating about others who might be more exciting or inviting in your contacts
You come straight in with the compliments, I’m not sure how I should respond to them
You offer compliments, and I'm unsure how to respond
He dudado de mi desde siempre, I’m not sure how to change my approach
Expressing perpetual self-doubt, unsure how to change my approach
Maybe I’m being too precautious, I don’t know what to say so we don’t talk that often
Considering myself overly cautious, leading to infrequent conversations
So I can try to ease your disappointment, let you down easily
Willing to disappoint you gently to manage expectations
I don’t know how to keep you interested, I swear I’m not even that interesting
Repeating the struggle to keep your interest due to perceived lack of interesting traits
You say I ought to give myself some more credit but I said it
Despite your encouragement, my self-doubt persists
Now I’m worried that it’s in your head
Worried that my earlier statement lingers in your thoughts
I don’t know how to keep you interested, en verdad no soy interesante
Reiterating difficulty in keeping your interest, admitting lack of interesting qualities (in Spanish)
Surely there’s someone more exciting, a little more inviting, somewhere in your contacts
Speculating about others who might be more exciting or inviting in your contacts
Why are you so kind, so kind to me?
Questioning the reason for your unusual kindness towards me
Why are you so kind, (so kind) so kind to me?(so kind)
Repetition of questioning the kindness received
Why are you so kind, so kind, so (so)
Continued questioning of the kindness received
Why are you so kind, so kind to me? (no soy nada de interés para ti te lo juro)
Repetition of questioning kindness, expressing a lack of interest in myself
Why are you so kind, so kind to me?
Further repetition of questioning the kindness received
Why are you so kind (so kind), so kind (so kind), so (no soy nada de interés para ti te lo juro)
Continued repetition of questioning kindness, expressing a lack of interest in myself
I don’t know how to keep you interested, I swear I’m not even that interesting
Repeating the struggle to keep your interest due to perceived lack of interesting traits
You say I ought to give myself some more credit but I said it
Despite your encouragement, my self-doubt persists
Now I’m worried that it’s in your head
Worried that my earlier statement lingers in your thoughts
I don’t know how to keep you interested, en verdad no soy interesante
Reiterating difficulty in keeping your interest, admitting lack of interesting qualities (in Spanish)
Surely there’s someone more exciting, a little more inviting, somewhere in your contacts
Speculating about others who might be more exciting or inviting in your contacts
