Must Be Wrong
Unexpected Longings: Exploring the Complexities of Relationships
Lyrics
Nice surprise; I haven't seen you in so long
Reunion with someone not seen for a while
We laugh, and you smile, and I stroke your hair
Sharing a pleasant moment, physical affection
Drive me home in the same old car the fourth of July
Returning home together in familiarity on July 4th
What am I, oh, what am I doing here?
Questioning the purpose of being present in the situation
Come on in, yeah, stay for a while
Inviting to stay longer, offering hospitality
Use my phone to check your calls and hang around
Allowing access to personal space and lingering
As ya see I am doing alright, so let's step outside
Showing outward contentment, suggesting intimacy
And make out on the fourth of July
Expressing desire for physical intimacy on July 4th
I don't know much about the strange commitment world
Unfamiliar with commitment, not rooted in one place
I'm never in one space too long
Transient nature, discomfort with settling
Sometimes I feel that we could make this last
Belief in potential for lasting relationship
I must be wrong
Doubting personal convictions about a lasting relationship
Once again hangin' out with all your friends
Being with the partner's social circle despite discomfort
It's not my scene; no, I'm not green
Not belonging to the social scene but present for the partner
I'm only here for your company
Being with the partner primarily for companionship
Guys hangin' around, trying to get down
Feeling uncomfortable around others vying for attention
Ain't got no time or desire to compete with them and
Not interested in competing for attention or time
I don't know much about the strange commitment world
Unfamiliarity and discomfort with commitments
I'm never in one space too long
Continued transience, avoiding long-term stays
Sometimes I feel that we could make this last
Hopeful about relationship longevity despite doubts
I must be wrong, it must be
Strongly doubting the potential for a lasting relationship
I don't know much about the strange commitment world
Reiteration of discomfort with commitments
I never stay in one space too long
Pattern of not settling in one place for too long
And now I feel (Make this last)
Expressing doubts about relationship longevity
This must be wrong
Reiteration of feeling that something is fundamentally wrong
This must be wrong
-This must be wrong
-This must be wrong
