Lyrics
Remember when I told you
Expressing a memory of a previous statement about caring.
I would always care for you
Reiterating commitment to always care for the person.
I'd never wanna see you cry
Stating a desire to prevent the person from experiencing sadness.
I always thought I knew those eyes
Reflecting on the familiarity of the person's eyes.
Can't believe you left me
Expressing disbelief and heartbreak over being left by the person.
Now downtown's reminding me of you
Associating the downtown area with memories of the person.
Now you're a stranger I still think of you
Describing the person as a stranger now, despite lingering thoughts.
Do you have days when you think about me too?
Pondering if the person also thinks about the speaker and their past.
And I know I know we gave everything
Acknowledging that both parties gave their all in the relationship.
I can't help myself and I wonder
Expressing difficulty in moving on and wondering about the person.
Do you have days when you think about me too?
Repeating the question of whether the person thinks about the speaker.
I wanna wait for you, what if I'm patient?
Expressing a desire to wait for the person, questioning the value of patience.
What if I pray for you, would that be waisted?
Asking if praying for the person would be worthwhile.
Maybe it's for the better
Suggesting that it might be better for both not to be together.
That we don't end up together
Expressing acceptance of the possibility of not ending up together.
Oh yeah I still want to
Affirming the lingering desire to be with the person.
But I can't wait for you
Admitting the inability to wait for the person despite the desire.
I gotta admit sometimes I'm wishing that we were younger
Expressing a wish to go back to a time when they were younger.
Cuz every now and then I miss what we had, I still wonder
Acknowledging the occasional yearning for the past relationship.
Baby what if I die for you, I cry for you, I'm tired of running
Pondering the idea of extreme actions like dying or crying for the person.
But then again I know we had our reasons to say goodbye
Recognizing that there were valid reasons for saying goodbye.
Now you're a stranger I still think of you
Reiterating thoughts about the person being a stranger now.
Do you have days when you think about me too?
Repeating the question of whether the person thinks about the speaker.
And I know I know we gave everything
Reaffirming that both gave everything in the relationship.
I can't help myself and I wonder
Expressing internal struggle and continued wondering about the person.
Do you have days when you think about me too?
