Lyrics
I think that you're good company
I believe that you are enjoyable to be with
And dare he say, "I know that this is something that won't ever last"
The speaker acknowledges that the relationship is temporary and won't endure
and then she said, "would you and I be nothing if I ever asked?"
The partner questions whether their connection would be insignificant if she expressed her feelings
So the feelings drop the moment this is something sorta typical
The emotions fade when the situation becomes somewhat typical
He said, "baby girl, you know you're something special not so typical"
The speaker reassures the partner of her uniqueness and special qualities
So stay true in this funny phase
Encouragement to remain authentic during uncertain times
And choose –– try to save some face
An advice to maintain dignity and composure despite challenges
Try to make some sense of what you want and make it so
Encouragement to understand one's desires and work towards achieving them
Hurry up, make up your mind, take it slow
Impatience expressed, urging the partner to make decisions but also advising to take it slow
I think that you're good company
Reiteration of the belief that the partner is enjoyable to be with
So then they say, it's better to have loved and lost than not at all
Reference to the common saying about the value of love and loss
And yet here we are, the moment that we lost is all that ever was
Contradiction, suggesting that the lost moment is all that matters despite the popular saying
So stay in tune, as the lyrics go
Encouragement to stay attuned to the emotions conveyed in the lyrics
Into a part everyone knows
A suggestion to engage in a universally known part of life
Sing your heart out as if you’re the one who leads the show
Encouragement to express oneself passionately as if leading a performance
Pour it out, keep to yourself, let it go
Advice to share emotions or keep them private, depending on personal preference
They're gone but you don't have to leave
Others may leave, but the partner is asked to stay
Just time with you is all I need
Expressing that spending time with the partner is sufficient
If all I had was you and me
If all that remains is the speaker and the partner, that is considered good company
I think that makes good company
Reiteration of the belief in the partner being good company
I think that you're good company
Reiteration of the belief that the partner is enjoyable to be with
I think that I’m good company
The speaker also considers themselves good company
I think that we're good company
Collective acknowledgment that the partnership is good company
I think that you're good company
Reiteration of the belief that the partner is enjoyable to be with
