Lyrics
Hi
Salutation, a greeting
Haven't seen you in quite some time
Expressing a significant time gap since last encounter
So why
Prompting a question about the reason for the reappearance
Did you decide to show up tonight?
Questioning the motive behind attending the current event
Without you on my mind
Reflecting on a state of mind without the person in question
I was divine and I was kind
Describing a positive state, divinity, and kindness without the person
I wish I was kind again
Expressing a desire to return to a kind and positive state
I wish I was kind again
Reiteration of the longing for a kind disposition
You are all I see
Declaring the person as the sole focus of attention
Stranger Wannabe
Labeling the person as a stranger who aspires to be known
Hi
Repetition of the initial greeting
Haven't told you in quite some time
Reiterating the prolonged absence of communication
That I
Expressing dissatisfaction with the ongoing struggle or conflict
Have had enough holding up this fight
Declaring a decision to end the struggle or conflict
Without you on my mind
Reflecting on a positive state without the person, similar to Line #6
I was divine and I was kind
Describing a past state of divinity and kindness
I wish I was mine again
Expressing a desire to reclaim a personal sense of ownership
You are all I see
Repeating the declaration of the person's exclusive focus
Stranger Wannabe
Reiteration of the label "Stranger Wannabe"
