Lyrics
Wrote letters I never sent
Expressing the act of writing unsent letters, possibly containing unspoken thoughts or feelings.
The timing just sort of came and went
Reflecting on missed opportunities due to poor timing, things that happened or didn't happen as expected.
So did the sentiment
Not only did the timing pass, but the emotional connection or significance also faded away.
The words were always never up to snuff
The written words were never satisfactory or adequate.
And all the pushes never came to shove
Despite efforts, decisive actions or confrontations never occurred.
You're so vain
Addressing someone as overly self-centered or egotistical.
How'd you ever get that way?
Pondering how the person became vain and self-absorbed.
I've still got so much left to say
Expressing the speaker's remaining unspoken thoughts.
Words that won't see the light of day
Referring to unexpressed words that will remain undisclosed.
And that's okay
Acceptance of the situation, acknowledging that it's okay not to express certain things.
It doesn't matter anyway
Emphasizing the insignificance of the unspoken words.
Have you ever believed in something

Then just had to walk away

Won't you meet me in the middle?

I'm just constantly finding harmony
Describing a continuous search for harmony in life.
Won't you meet me in the middle?
Reiterating the desire for a compromise or meeting halfway.
I'm just looking for the middle
Expressing the speaker's search for balance or a middle ground.
I'm still trying to find a little
Still attempting to find a small amount of resolution or understanding.
You're so vain
Repeating the observation of someone being excessively self-absorbed.
How'd you ever get that way?
Questioning how the person developed such a self-centered attitude.
I've still got so much left to say

But I just had to walk away
