When you took me for the hours
Feeling a loss of time or a sense of being taken advantage of in a relationship.
You took from me the days

When you took me for the days
Reflecting on the duration taken away when someone was taken for granted.
You took from me the years
Highlighting the long-term consequences of being undervalued, suggesting the loss of years.
Now, I wasted all my time
Regretting the perceived squandering of time.
Spending all my love
Questioning if love has been invested wisely.
Have I wasted all my love
Pondering whether all the love given has been a waste.
Spending all my time?
Raising doubts about the value of time spent in the relationship.
Only so much I can take only chasing you
Expressing a limit to the endurance of pursuing someone, questioning the effort.
Only, only am I only chasing you?
Pondering if the speaker is the only one investing in the relationship.
Only, only, only, only
Repetition of "only" emphasizing the singularity or exclusivity of the speaker's efforts.
Maybe there's nothing I can do
Acceptance of a perceived helplessness or lack of control in the situation.
Maybe there's nothing I can do
Reiteration of the sense of powerlessness, suggesting resignation to the circumstances.
I'm getting nowhere close to you
Expressing frustration at the inability to get emotionally closer to the other person.
You're just a mirage
Describing the person as unattainable, like a mirage, perhaps distant or unresponsive.
You'll only love me from afar, only
Recognizing that the other person only loves from a distance, without true intimacy.
Only, only, only
Repetition of "only," reinforcing the theme of exclusivity and limited reciprocation in the relationship.
