Lyrics
Tell me if I'm mistaken
Asking for confirmation if a perception is incorrect.
But you're not in love
Suggesting the other person isn't experiencing love.
Am I right?
Seeking confirmation of the accuracy of the assumption.
Things aren't the same since we came here
Implying changes since arriving in a place.
And we can pick up where we left off
Expressing the desire to resume from where things paused.
But you're not in love
Reiterating the belief that the person isn't in love.
Am I right?
Confirming the need for validation.
Well I can't say that I blame you
Not assigning blame for the situation.
The tide has turned since our child sailed away
Metaphorically referencing a significant change due to the departure of someone important.
And the love we had was enough for two, not three
Highlighting that the love shared wasn't sufficient for the altered circumstances.
Oh, god, what have we done?
Expressing regret or remorse for actions taken.
You look in my eyes like the ordained
Comparing the other's gaze to a religious blessing or approval.
But you're not in love
Reaffirming the belief that the person isn't experiencing love.
I'm not blind
Asserting self-awareness about the situation.
You're being kind but you won't say it
Implying reluctance to communicate the truth despite being considerate.
Since you've been mine you feel hollow
Noting a sense of emptiness or lack of fulfillment since being together.
And you're not in love
Reiterating the belief that the person isn't in love.
Am I right?
Seeking validation again for the assumption.
Well we've got nothing to gain here
Suggesting no potential benefit from the current situation.
The tide has turned since our sun sailed away
Metaphorically referring to a change due to the departure of a significant figure.
And the love we had was enough for two, not three
Stating that the love shared wasn't enough for the altered circumstances.
Oh, god, what have we done?
Expressing a sense of regret or questioning the consequences of past actions.
