Lyrics

If you don't know me by now

If you are not familiar with who I truly am

You will never never never know me

It's unlikely that you will ever understand me


All the things

Referring to the shared experiences and challenges

That we've been through

All the trials and tribulations we have faced

You should understand me

You should have insight into my thoughts and feelings

Like I understand you

Similar to how I comprehend your perspective

Now girl I know the difference

Acknowledging the ability to discern right from wrong

Between right and wrong

Expressing commitment not to jeopardize the relationship

I ain't gonna do nothing

Promising not to engage in actions that harm our home

To break up our happy home

Commitment to maintaining a happy household

Don't get so excited

Advising not to overreact or become overly emotional

When I come home

Reassuring about returning home, even if it's late

A little late at night

Noting occasional late returns but without ill intent

Cos we only act like children

Emphasizing immaturity only surfaces during conflicts

When we argue fuss and fight

Childish behavior arises during arguments


If you don't know me by now

Reiteration of the importance of understanding each other

You will never never never know me

Emphasizing the difficulty of truly knowing each other


We've all got our

Recognizing individual idiosyncrasies and emotions

Own funny moods

Acknowledging personal quirks and temperaments

I've got mine,

Indicating possession of unique characteristics

Woman you've got yours too

Acknowledging the partner's individuality

Just trust in me like I trust in you

Encouraging mutual trust and reliance

As long as we've been together

Highlighting the duration of the relationship

It should be so easy to do

Expressing that understanding should come naturally

Just get yourself together

Encouraging self-improvement for the sake of the relationship

Or we might as well say goodbye

Suggesting that not doing so may lead to a farewell

What good is a love affair

Questioning the value of a relationship without agreement

When you can't see eye to eye

Highlighting the importance of seeing things from the same perspective


If you don't know me by now

Reiteration of the challenge of truly knowing each other

You will never

Emphasizing the difficulty of achieving genuine understanding

Never never know me

Reaffirmation that true understanding may remain elusive
