Lyrics
It's been a long time
Expressing that a significant amount of time has passed.
Since I saw your face
Reflecting on the duration since seeing the person's face.
And I wanna know why
Expressing a desire to understand why communication ceased initially.
We ever stopped talking in the first place
Questioning the reason for the interruption in communication.
I know there must have been a reason
Acknowledging the existence of a cause for the communication breakdown.
I can't put my finger on it now
Feeling unable to identify the specific reason at present.
Still living withoutchya
Living without the person but still affected by their memory.
Your memory lingers on , but
Emphasizing that the memory of the person persists.
If you saw me now
Imagining a hypothetical encounter with the person.
What would you wanna say?
Pondering what the person might want to express in such a meeting.
If you asked how I've been doing
Anticipating a question about one's well-being.
Well, Ive been doing okay
Asserting that the individual has been managing reasonably well.
Had some ups and downs
Referring to life's fluctuations since the person's absence.
Since you stopped coming around
Highlighting challenges faced since the person stopped being present.
And as simple as it sounds
Acknowledging the simplicity of the situation despite its complexity.
You know where I can be found
Indicating the availability or location if the person wishes to connect.
If you saw me now
Reiterating the hypothetical encounter and its potential impact.
We didn't have as much in common as I thought we did
Reassessing the level of commonality with the person.
And now i'm thinking of the hours and the times we spent
Reflecting on past shared experiences and time spent together.
We should have grown together
Expressing a missed opportunity for mutual growth.
Instead we grew apart
Noting the divergence of paths rather than shared development.
So don't be mad cuz I saw you for who you really are
Warning against resentment upon realizing the person's true nature.
Don't take me for granted
Advising not to underestimate or undervalue the speaker.
Cuz I'm still waiting on an answer damnit!
Expressing impatience while waiting for an explanation or response.
If you saw me now
Revisiting the hypothetical encounter and its potential communication.
What would you wanna say?
Contemplating the content of the person's hypothetical message.
If you asked how I've been doing
Anticipating an inquiry into the speaker's current well-being.
Well, Ive been doing okay
Reaffirming a satisfactory state of being despite challenges.
