Lyrics

You're dancing to a song that you know is about you

You are dancing to a song that you are aware is directed at you.

And making sure that everyone knows it too

You want everyone to be aware that the song is about you.

Have you had enough to drink?

Questioning if you've consumed enough alcohol.

Or is this what you really think

Wondering if your current thoughts reflect your true feelings.

I still remember when you said to me

Recollection of a past conversation where a significant statement was made.

"Take that bottle from your lips

Quoting someone advising to stop drinking.

Cause you're no longer taking sips"

Emphasizing that drinking behavior needs to change.

Why'd you have to say

Questioning why the declaration of love was made.

"I love you"?

Expressing confusion about the "I love you" statement.

You're driving and you're crying as you hear this tune

Driving and crying while listening to the song.

You want to love it even though it's about you

Desiring to love the song despite it being about you.

And when you told me I should think

Recalling advice to think and reflect on one's actions.

Calling me an alcoholic

Being labeled as an alcoholic by someone.

Isn't this moment so bittersweet

Describing the current moment as both sweet and bitter.

Take that bottle from your lips

Reiterating the need to stop drinking.

Cause you're no longer taking sips

Emphasizing the decision to quit drinking.

Why'd you have to say

Questioning the sincerity of the "I love you" declaration.

"I love you"?

Expressing confusion about the proclaimed love.

You got lost in a drunken kiss

Narrating a moment where intimacy was lost due to intoxication.

I can't believe it's come to this

Expressing disbelief at the current situation.

Why'd you have to say

Questioning the sincerity of the earlier "I love you" statement.

"I love you"?

Reiterating the need to stop drinking.

Take that bottle from your lips

Emphasizing the decision to quit drinking.

Cause you're no longer taking sips

Questioning the sincerity of the "I love you" declaration.

Why'd you have to say

Expressing confusion about the proclaimed love.

"I love you"?

Reiterating the need to stop drinking.

You got lost in a drunken kiss

Narrating a moment where intimacy was lost due to intoxication.

I can't believe it's come to this

Expressing disbelief at the current situation.

Why'd you have to say

Questioning the sincerity of the earlier "I love you" statement.

"I love you"?

Expressing confusion about the proclaimed love.
