Lyrics
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
The person being addressed is seen as the source of disappointment.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Reiteration of the disappointment caused by the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Continued emphasis on the disappointment caused by the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Repeated acknowledgment of the addressed person's role in letting the speaker down.
And now I have no price to pay ya
Expressing freedom from owing something to the person addressed.
Got me feeling like I can't escape ya
Feeling trapped or unable to escape the influence of the addressed person.
Got my tokens on the ride
Metaphorically referencing investments made in a relationship.
It went up then down my vibe
Ups and downs in emotions or experiences caused by the addressed person.
I can tell thats what you like - I can stay another night
Recognition of the addressed person's preferences and willingness to comply to please them.
Like a wave I came crashing down
Comparing the speaker's emotional descent to a crashing wave.
Searching for it, I'll pull you down
Desire to bring the addressed person into the speaker's emotional state.
But there's no way I'll let you drown
Determination not to let the addressed person suffer despite the speaker's own struggles.
Keeping on flowing, I'll show you how
Commitment to persist and guide the addressed person through difficult times.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Reiteration of the addressed person's role in causing disappointment.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Continued acknowledgment of the disappointment caused by the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Emphasizing the disappointment caused by the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Repeated acknowledgment of the addressed person's role in letting the speaker down.
When i get my ideas, I just cant hear you speak now
Difficulty in understanding or hearing the addressed person's ideas or communication.
Got my head full of bees, buzzing honey on me now
A metaphorical reference to feeling mentally overwhelmed.
Well I guess, I guess, I guess it's justified yeah
Acceptance or justification of a situation.
This is something I guess, I guess
Uncertain acceptance or acknowledgment of a circumstance.
Like I thought it was easier to let go
Initial belief that it would be easier to move on from the addressed person.
That I don't lose demeanour - when I let you know
Assurance of maintaining composure while conveying feelings to the addressed person.
Spent a thousand tears to say the things I'll never say
Expressing emotional strain and the difficulty in expressing certain sentiments.
A boundless fear to hear that you're no good
Fear of realizing the inadequacies or negative qualities of the addressed person.
The things you own up, drifted by my soul yeah
Recognition of the addressed person's actions affecting the speaker deeply.
Looking for a key a piece of me, I mean
Desire to find something essential that seems lost or missing because of the addressed person.
It's like I didn't know what, drifted by soul yeah
Recognition of a lack of understanding due to the addressed person's actions.
Looking for a key a piece of me I mean
Continued search for something essential that seems lost or missing because of the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Reiteration of the disappointment caused by the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Continued acknowledgment of the disappointment caused by the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Emphasizing the disappointment caused by the addressed person.
And Baby, you're the one, that lets me down
Repeated acknowledgment of the addressed person's role in letting the speaker down.
