She's not you
Chasing Shadows: A Tale of Yearning and Reality
Lyrics
So I met this girl
Expressing the beginning of a romantic encounter with a girl.
She got my head in a twirl
Feeling captivated or infatuated by the girl's charm.
Oh She's a stunner
Complimenting the girl for being exceptionally attractive.
But your much funner
Comparing the current girl to someone else, suggesting the latter is more enjoyable.
Took her on a date
Describing a date with the girl.
Then I bragged to my mate
Boasting to a friend about the time spent with the girl.
About the time we had
Recalling the positive aspects of the date.
But I'm still sad
Despite the positive experience, expressing lingering sadness.
'Cause she's not you
Repeatedly emphasizing that the girl is not the one the speaker truly desires.
And she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-Ye she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-And she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-Ye she's not you
-Went back to mine
Returning to the speaker's place with the girl.
She was lookin fine
Complimenting the girl's appearance again.
It's that dress you had
Noting the impact of the girl's dress on the speaker's emotions.
Oh it drived me mad
Expressing the intense effect the girl has on the speaker.
'Cause she's not you
Reiterating that the current girl is not the desired one.
And she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-Ye she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-And she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-When I met her family
Sharing an uncomfortable experience meeting the girl's family.
I didn't feel to good
Feeling uneasy or dissatisfied in the company of the family.
'Cause it was the same
Highlighting the similarity with the undesired neighborhood or social background.
The same
-neighbourhood
-They looked to posh
Commenting on the family's perceived wealth or social status.
Showing all there dosh
Displaying their affluence, making the speaker uncomfortable.
Well that's not me so I had to flee
Deciding to leave because the lifestyle is not aligned with the speaker's preferences.
'Cause she's not you
Reaffirming that the current girl is not the one the speaker truly desires.
And she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-Ye she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-And she's not you
-'Cause she's not you
-Ye she's not you
