Lyrics

The rain falls down my door

The rain is symbolically falling outside my door.

You shared thoughts I'd never ignore

You expressed thoughts that I couldn't ignore.


But somehow

Despite something, a realization is dawning.

I knew you weren't coming home

I had a premonition that you wouldn't return.

You love to leave me on my own

You have a tendency to leave me alone.

Lovely

A term of endearment, "lovely," is used.


But not lovely enough

You are charming, but your charm is not sufficient.


Somehow

Reiteration of the realization that you won't return.

I knew you weren't coming home

You have a habit of leaving me by myself.

You love to leave me on my own

Repetition of the idea of being left alone.

Lovely

Repeating the term of endearment, "lovely."


But not lovely enough

Despite being lovely, it's not enough.


Yeah

An expression, possibly acknowledging the situation.


Somehow

Reiteration of the anticipation that you won't return.

I knew you weren't coming home

Repetition of the idea of being left alone.

You love to leave me on my own

You consistently enjoy leaving me on my own.

You're lovely

A final acknowledgment of your charm despite the situation.
