Lyrics
Hey there, I've been seeing you looking my way all night long
Recognition of someone showing interest throughout the night
Now the night's gone
Transition from nighttime to another phase or time
Hey there, I can see me and you together in a different way
Perceiving a potential connection between the speaker and the person addressed
So what do you say?
Asking for a response or agreement
So why don't you call me when you want to?
Requesting a call from the person when they feel like it
Take it away, I thought I knew you
Expressing a feeling of misunderstanding or misjudgment about the person
Run around chasing in your new shoes
Observation of the person being preoccupied with new experiences
Show me the tricks of the trade
Desire to learn the skills or secrets possessed by the person
And you can move us out to LA
Suggesting a move to Los Angeles together
And we'll be living like rockstar through life
Envisioning a glamorous lifestyle akin to rockstars
And we'll be living the dream
Anticipating an idealized life
We'll be living the dream
Reiteration of the dream-like scenario
Imagine the words you never said
Contemplation of unspoken words
Now I think you're suited better in my head
Belief that the person fits better as an imagined entity
It's kinda funny, when it's all a dream
Reflecting on the surreal nature of dreams
When you left me waiting, waiting on seen
Feeling ignored or left hanging in a conversation or interaction
'Cause I've been taking nights off to try and find a girl like you
Dedication of time to find someone similar to the person
Oh I've been taking days off to deal with my head
Allocating time to resolve personal thoughts and emotions
No, I'll be taking months off to try and find somebody new
Planning an extended period to search for a new companion
Now I'll be taking years off to travel round with you
Willingness to invest years to travel with the person
So why don't you call me when you want to?
Repeated request for a call from the person
Take it away, I thought I knew you
Reiteration of feeling a lack of understanding about the person
Run around chasing in your new shoes
Observation of the person's pursuit of new experiences
Show me the tricks of the trade
Desire to learn from the person's expertise
And you can move us out to LA
Proposal to relocate together to Los Angeles
And we'll be living like rockstar through life
Envisioning a lavish lifestyle similar to rockstars
And we'll be living the dream
Anticipation of an idealized life
We'll be living the dream
Reiteration of the dream-like scenario
So why don't you call me when you want to?
Repeated request for a call from the person
Take it away, I thought I knew you
Continued feeling of misunderstanding or misjudgment
Run around chasing in your new shoes
Observation of the person's pursuit of new experiences
Show me the tricks of the trade
Desire to learn from the person's expertise
And you can move us out to LA
Proposal to relocate together to Los Angeles
And we'll be living like rockstar through life
Envisioning a lavish lifestyle similar to rockstars
And we'll be living the dream
Anticipation of an idealized life
We'll be living the dream
Reiteration of the dream-like scenario
'Cause I've been taking nights off to try and find a girl like you.
Continued effort to find someone similar to the person
Now I'll be taking years off to travel round with you
Commitment to spend years traveling together
