Lyrics
Time goes by
Reflecting on the passage of time
Till I find
Expressing the search for something meaningful
Something I want to say to you
Desire to communicate with someone
I lied
Admitting to dishonesty
Only because
Explaining the lie due to the other person's lack of truthfulness
You wouldn't tell the truth
Acknowledging the difficulty in trusting the other person
I miss
Expressing a sense of longing or nostalgia
All that you aren't
Missing qualities that the other person lacks
And what you said you'd do
Referring to unfulfilled promises
More time goes by
Continuation of the passage of time
I still haven't found
Struggling to find words for communication
Something to say to you
Persistence in the difficulty of expressing oneself
And everything gets complicated and lost in
Highlighting the complexity and confusion in life
All of feelings and everywhere I've been
Feeling lost amid various emotions and experiences
Don't need a rhyme don't need a reason
Emphasizing a lack of necessity for explanations
Or maybe the reason could be oh I still feel it
Suggesting lingering feelings without a clear cause
You, I always thought it'd be you
Expressing an expectation that the person in mind would always be present
I wish it was you, but
Wishing for the presence of a specific person
There's nothing else I can do
Resignation to the inability to change the current situation
Time alone has
Highlighting the comfort found in solitude over time
Been more comfortable
Surprising comfort in being alone compared to expectations
Than I thought it'd be
Reflecting on the anticipated discomfort of solitude
Usually
Normally expecting the addressed person to be the preferred company
You'd be the only one
The person addressed as the preferred choice for companionship
That I'd want to see
Expressing a desire to see the addressed person
And everything gets complicated and lost in
Reiteration of the complexity and confusion in life
All of the feelings that I've had since Boston
Emotional turmoil experienced since a specific event in Boston
Don't need a rhyme don't need a reason
Reiterating the lack of need for explanations
Or maybe the reason could be oh that I still feel it
Suggesting lingering feelings without a clear cause
You, I always thought it'd be you
Reaffirming the expectation of the addressed person's perpetual presence
I wish it was you, but
Reiterating the wish for the presence of the specific person
There's nothing else I can do
Acceptance of the inability to change the current situation
Oh you, I always thought it'd be you
Reaffirming the expectation of the addressed person's perpetual presence
I wish he was you, but
Expressing a wish for the presence of another person
There's nothing else I can do
Acceptance of the inability to change the current situation
