Lyrics
I thought I was over you
I believed I had moved on from you.
I'd put out the flame
I thought I had extinguished the emotions.
Said tonight will be different
Expressing a hope for a different experience tonight.
I wouldn't need to play your games
Not willing to engage in manipulative behavior.
I walk past your tower block
Passing by the building where you reside.
Saw a flick in the blinds
Observing a glimpse through the window blinds.
I said tonight will be different
Reiterating the desire for a unique night and not returning.
And that I won't come back
Committing to not coming back.
Here I am
Presenting oneself in the current situation.
Running up the seventh floor
Physically ascending to the seventh floor.
Knocking the eleventh door
Knocking on the door numbered eleven.
I'mma sick of trying
Expressing fatigue from continuous efforts.
I'mma sick of trying
Repetition of exhaustion from attempting.
Baby could I love you some more
Pondering if additional love is possible.
Baby could I love you some more
Repeating the question of increased affection.
Told myself I's a prisoner
Considering oneself confined and having broken free.
And I'd broken my chains
Asserting freedom from personal limitations.
That I could be anyone
Believing in the capacity to transform.
I'd run a thousand miles away
Expressing a willingness to distance oneself significantly.
And I imagined America
Imagining a distant place, perhaps America.
Somewhere as far
Specifying the imagined distance as far away.
Someplace where the memories
Referring to a place where memories can't cause pain.
They couldn't cut my heart
Ensuring emotional protection.
But here I am
Despite intentions, finding oneself in the same situation.
Running up the seventh floor
Physically repeating the act of ascending to the seventh floor.
Knocking the eleventh door
Knocking on the familiar eleventh door.
I'mma sick of trying
Expressing weariness from persistent attempts.
I'mma sick of trying
Reiteration of exhaustion from continuous efforts.
Baby could I love you some more
Pondering if additional love is possible.
Baby could you love me some more?
Posing the question of increased affection to the other person.
Baby could you love me some more?
Repeating the inquiry about enhanced love.
Baby could you love me some more?
Repeating the question regarding increased affection.
'Cause I'm going out my head here, darling
Expressing emotional turmoil and confusion.
Going out my head here, darling
Reiterating the sense of being overwhelmed emotionally.
Going out my head here, darling
Continuing to describe the emotional distress.
Going out my head here, darling
Persisting in the expression of emotional turmoil.
But here I am
Repeating the act of ascending to the seventh floor.
Running up the seventh floor
Knocking on the familiar eleventh door again.
Knocking the eleventh door
Repeating the previous actions and statements.
Saying what I've said before
Restating the plea for additional love.
Baby could you love me some more?
Asking if the other person could love more.
Baby could you love me some more?
Repeating the question about increased affection.
I'm going out my head here, darling
Emphasizing the emotional distress experienced.
I'm going out my head here, darling
Reiterating the overwhelming emotional state.
I'm going out my head
Continuing to express a state of emotional turmoil.
