Lyrics
Two big windows and a front porch
Describing the physical features of a place with two big windows and a front porch.
We talk forever till the sun rose
Engaging in a prolonged conversation until sunrise.
I held you closer
Expressing physical closeness in a relationship.
Feel like it’s over
Sensing that the relationship is coming to an end.
You hide your keys, you keep your doors closed
Describing a sense of secrecy or privacy by hiding keys and keeping doors closed.
Keep on knocking no one’s at home
Continuing to seek connection, but finding no response.
I try to hold on
Struggling to maintain the relationship.
I don’t know what’s wrong
Feeling uncertain about the problems in the relationship.
Oooh you left me on my own
Expressing the pain of being abandoned.
It hurts to let you go
Experiencing the difficulty of letting go.
I thought you were my home
Mistakenly believing the person was a source of comfort and belonging.
But you rather be alone
Realizing the preference of the partner to be alone.
Traveled far to get some distance
Traveling to create emotional distance from the past relationship.
To forget you’ve existed
Trying to forget the existence of the former partner.
I hate to move on
Expressing reluctance to move on despite the necessity.
But life still goes on
Acknowledging that life continues despite the emotional struggles.
Thought it’s over, but then you called
Unexpectedly receiving a call from the ex-partner.
I don’t want your pity remorse
Rejecting the idea of receiving pity or remorse from the ex-partner.
Should’ve known from the start
Realizing the partner's negative qualities were underestimated from the beginning.
You’re worse than I thought
Discovering that the partner is worse than initially thought.
You left me on my own
Repeating the pain of being left alone.
It hurts to let you go
Reiterating the difficulty of letting go.
I thought you were my home
Revisiting the idea of the ex-partner as a source of home and comfort.
But you rather be alone
Confirming the partner's preference for solitude.
I know something’s not right
Sensing that something is wrong in the relationship.
Never held me so tight
Noticing a lack of emotional connection, despite physical closeness.
I know that our love died
Acknowledging the end of the love in the relationship.
I can see your diamond eyes
Observing the partner's insincere or deceptive nature through their eyes.
I wanna take you home
Expressing a desire to bring the partner home.
But now I’m all alone
Feeling the loneliness after the partner's departure.
Ooh
An emotional expression, possibly indicating pain or realization.
You left me on my own
Repeating the theme of being left alone.
It hurts to let you go

I thought you were my home
