Lyrics

Its been sometime since I first met you

Reflecting on the duration since the initial meeting

No one thinks about you more than I do

Expressing intense preoccupation and concern for the person

If you won't let me find you

Feeling unable to locate or connect with the person

How am I gonna get through

Expressing difficulty in coping without finding the person

I was straight and acted like a fool

Admitting to behaving naively in the past

You were drunk and unbelievably cool

Describing the person as impressive despite being intoxicated

You won't find a friend who knows you like I do

Asserting a unique understanding and closeness to the person


Its been sometime since I first met you

Reiteration of the time passed since the initial encounter

No one thinks about you more than I do

Reaffirming the intense focus and concern for the person

If you won't let me find you

Expressing the need to locate or reconnect with the person

How am I gonna get through

Highlighting the struggle to cope without finding the person

I was straight and acted like a fool

Admitting to past foolish behavior

You were drunk and unbelievably cool

Portraying the person positively despite being drunk

You won't find a friend who knows you like I do

Asserting a deep understanding and connection with the person


Its time you should be going

Implying the need for the person to leave

But there's no one home

Indicating an absence of anyone at home

I guess I'm alone

Expressing a sense of loneliness

There's things you should be knowing

Implying important information the person should be aware of

But no one ever asked me before

Indicating a lack of inquiry or interest in the speaker's thoughts

And you can know the rest if you want to

Offering additional information if the person desires it


And every time they are together

Describing occasions when a group is together

They all crowed around to take a picture

Depicting a situation where people gather for a photo

Don't you feel you have to

Implying a sense of obligation or pressure

'fact I feel obliged to

Expressing a feeling of obligation to act in a certain way

If you won't let me find you

Reiterating the difficulty in locating or reconnecting with the person

How am I gonna get through

Emphasizing the challenge of coping without finding the person
