Lyrics
Someday I'll be
Someday, in the future
I'll be
Reiteration of the future state
Able to see you
Anticipation of being able to see someone
And not feel like I can't move
Expressing a feeling of being paralyzed or stuck in the presence of the person
Its like I don't want to
Reluctance to move or act, possibly due to emotional vulnerability
Because if you're gone I
Dependence on the person for a sense of purpose
Don't have a purpose
Admitting a lack of purpose when the person is not around
I need you
Expressing a need for the person in one's life
I can't be yours
Acknowledging inability to belong to the person
I promised
Referencing a commitment or assurance made
The summer
Referring to a specific time, possibly a period of happiness or togetherness
I try
Struggling to fulfill a promise or commitment
To be yours
Continued attempt to belong to the person
But you, you don't
Recognition of the person's reluctance or unwillingness
You just don't wanna be
Confirmation of the person's lack of desire to be together
I can't be yours
Reiteration of the inability to belong to the person
I promised
Reaffirmation of a commitment made during the summer
The summer
Recollection of a past period of time (summer) significant to the relationship
Your memory haunts me
Feeling haunted by memories of the person
Our summer is over
Acknowledging the end of a shared summer and its associated experiences
Fade away
Expressing a gradual disappearance or loss
I can't be yours
Reiteration of the inability to belong to the person
I promised
Reaffirmation of a commitment made during the summer
The summer
Recollection of a promise or commitment made during the summer
