Lyrics
Standing in this room
Expressing the physical setting or environment
And I see you
Noticing someone in the room
I don't know you yet
Acknowledging lack of familiarity
But I'd like to
Expressing interest in getting to know the person
I walk over your way
Approaching the person
And I say girl what is your name
Initiating a conversation, asking for the person's name
You just look at me
Describing the person's reaction to the question
Say it's Stacy
Revealing the person's name as Stacy
I ask about your mom
Continuing the conversation, asking about family
You said you've heard that before
Noting a common response about the mom
And now I know you
Expressing growing familiarity with Stacy
But I'd like to know (you more)
Expressing a desire to know Stacy more
I wanted to leave
Expressing an initial intention to leave
But you took a seat by the drunk teens
Choosing to stay, describing the setting with drunk teens
And we just sat and laughed at the irony
Sharing a moment of laughter with Stacy
Stacy
Repeating Stacy's name, perhaps emphasizing connection
From across the room
Reiterating the initial encounter from a distance
I didn't know you then
Confirming present knowledge of Stacy
But now I do
Reflecting on the progression of familiarity
Stacy
Repeating Stacy's name, possibly for emphasis or reflection
Where have you been
Asking about Stacy's experiences or whereabouts
Falling in love
Noting Stacy's involvement in a romantic relationship
In this basement
Describing the setting of falling in love in a basement
Stacy
Repeating Stacy's name, potentially for emphasis
From across the room
Reiterating the initial encounter from a distance
I didn't know you then
Confirming present knowledge of Stacy
But now I do
Reflecting on the progression of familiarity
Stacy
Repeating Stacy's name, possibly for emphasis or reflection
Where have you been
Asking about Stacy's experiences or whereabouts
Falling in love
Noting Stacy's involvement in a romantic relationship
In this basement
Describing the setting of falling in love in a basement
Stacy
Repeating Stacy's name, possibly for emphasis or reflection
Stacy
Repeating Stacy's name, potentially for emphasis
Falling in love
Emphasizing the theme of falling in love in a basement
In this basement
Repeating the theme of falling in love in a basement
