Lyrics
Did I see you the other day?
Reflecting on a recent encounter with someone
Grey eyes looked so grey...
Noticing the person's grey eyes
Bitten once with indecision
Feeling hesitant or unsure
I could run all the way...
Expressing the possibility of running away
I turned around
Turning around, possibly metaphorical
To see the sound
Associating sound with a visual experience
And watched the world explode in the sky
Observing a dramatic event in the world
But when I look straight at you...
Directing attention to a specific person
I'm livin a deja vu
Experiencing a sense of déjà vu with that person
There's nothin else to do...
Accepting the current situation with resignation
We've got nothing left to lose, yeah
Emphasizing a lack of anything significant to lose
For and for the fantasy
Referring to a shared fantasy or imagination
We bear it the same everyday
Highlighting the monotony of everyday life
Our lives are shaped by the ones who say
Acknowledging the influence of others on one's life
There are no reaons for your mistakes
Rejecting justifications for mistakes
When I saw you the other day
Recalling another recent encounter
You made your mark on me
Indicating a lasting impression made by the person
I can wait for a million years
Expressing a willingness to wait indefinitely
But will you wait for me?
Pondering if the other person will reciprocate the wait
You feel the heat and you feel the need
Describing intense emotions
As I watched them collide in your eyes
Witnessing a powerful moment in the other person's eyes
You could run away, but what's the use?
Questioning the point of running away
You're livin a deja vu
Experiencing a recurring déjà vu feeling
There's nothin else to do...
Accepting the lack of alternatives
We've got nothing left to lose...
Reiterating the idea of having nothing to lose
We've got nothing left to lose...
-We've got nothing left to lose...
-Please don't say not a single thing...
Pleading for silence
Nothing but words, anyway
Downplaying the significance of words
Is this just a blind obsession...
Questioning the nature of intense focus or passion
Or was it destiny?
Contemplating whether the connection is destiny
Let's stick around my secret ground
Suggesting a shared, private space
And watch the world spin into sand
Observing the transient nature of the world
You could run away, but what's the use?
Raising the futility of running away
You're livin a deja vu
Reiterating the sense of déjà vu
There's nothin else to do...
Reinforcing the lack of alternatives
We've got nothing left to lose...
Repeated emphasis on having nothing left to lose
We've got nothing left to lose...
-We've got nothing left to lose...
-We've got nothing left to lose...
-We've got nothing left to lose...
-We've got nothing left to lose...
-We've got nothing left to lose...
-We've got nothing left to lose...
Final affirmation of the theme
