Lyrics
What makes me feel this way
Questioning the cause of current emotions
Why are you constantly on my mind
Wondering why thoughts of someone persist
When I know
Acknowledgment of an unattainable situation
I cannot have you
Expressing the impossibility of having the person
Why do I have to think
Questioning the need to desire someone unavailable
I need you here with me no
Expressing longing and desire for the person
I can't go on cos I cannot have you
Feeling unable to continue due to unfulfilled desire
The thought has always crossed my mind
Considering the possibility of a romantic relationship
How it would be
Imagining how things could be different
If we tried to talk about me
Contemplating discussing a potential relationship
Being with you would there be us?
Questioning the outcome if they were together
And will it be true?
Questioning the genuineness of the potential relationship
But I shouldn't even let my mind go that far
Realizing it's inappropriate to entertain such thoughts
Cos it's not right
Acknowledging the moral wrongness of desiring someone taken
Cos you have her and she trusts us
Acknowledging the presence of another person in the picture
She knows we're friends
Acknowledging the trust between them and the person's partner
But I love you so much
Expressing strong feelings of love despite the circumstances
It might help if I knew
Speculating if being together would resolve the situation
That I'd find myself with you
Recognizing the moral conflict of desiring someone taken
But that's so wrong
Realizing the need to move on despite feelings
I should move on
Acknowledging the moral wrongness of pursuing the person
It's just not right
Understanding that the situation is not appropriate
Cause you're not mine
Realizing the person belongs to someone else
Boy you've always been
Acknowledging a long-standing connection with the person
Be my side
Describing the person as a close friend
A friend of mine for a very long time
Highlighting the duration of their friendship
So why can't you see
Questioning why the person can't perceive their potential
Just what it could be
Expressing the desire for the person to understand the potential relationship
Cos I dream about you being with me
Imagining a romantic relationship with the person
So baby tell me how you fell inside
Asking the person about their feelings
If you want me baby don't lie
Seeking honesty from the person regarding their feelings
Cos I dream about us all of the time
Reiterating the desire for a relationship with the person
Makes me mad
Expressing frustration due to the unattainable nature of the relationship
Cos you're not mine
Acknowledging the impossibility of being together
