Lyrics
I can't find the words to say
I am struggling to express my feelings.
Please stay with me, or go away
I am torn between wanting you to stay and considering the option for you to leave.
It's so hard to live without somebody just like you
Living without someone like you is extremely challenging.
It's so hard to live without somebody just like you
This sentiment is reiterated, emphasizing the difficulty of life without someone similar to you.
I saw you the other day
I recently encountered you.
And you told me straight to my face
You directly communicated to me, confessing, "I've always wanted someone just like you."
"I've always wanted someone just like you"
This statement is repeated, underscoring the desire for someone with the speaker's qualities.
And I've always wanted someone just like you
The speaker also expresses a longstanding desire for someone resembling the person addressed.
And I knew you'd be leaving soon

To find yourself some elbow room

And I hope I don't write a song about you
The speaker hopes not to write a song inspired by the impending separation.
Yeah I knew you'd be leaving soon
Reiteration of the anticipation of your departure and the search for personal space.
To find yourself some elbow room

And I hope I don't write a song about you

I hope I don't write a song about you
Reaffirmation of the desire not to compose a song inspired by the separation.
I hear our hearts beat together

And when they do, they sing this tune
When their hearts beat together, a harmonious melody is created.
And I'm so glad that I waste away my time with you
The speaker is pleased to spend time with you, even if it seems unproductive or wasteful.
I'm so glad that I spend all my time with you

I wrote this new melody

And it sounds just like your voice to me

And I play it every time you're gone

I play this new melody every time you're gone away

And I think I just wrote a song about you

I think I just wrote a song about you
