Lyrics
Hey babe
Expressing affectionate greeting.
Um I tried to call you but again sent me to voicemail
Frustration about unsuccessful attempts to communicate.
I don't know how to put this but
Uncertainty in expressing a difficult situation.
I don't know how this is gonna work out anymore
Doubts about the viability of the relationship.
It's always this back and forth and somedays I feel like you're all the way there with me
Expressing the inconsistency in the emotional connection.
But then there are other days where you just feel so distant
Noting the emotional distance on certain days.
Love you bye
Concluding the message with a simple expression of love and goodbye.
Listen
Transitioning to a reflection on the situation.
And I thought that maybe I'd get over you with just one drink
Attempting to cope with emotions through alcohol.
But after every one I'm still here thinking
Unsuccessful in overcoming thoughts of the person.
What if
Pondering on 'what if' scenarios.
What if you were the one for me and I couldn't put away my pride
Speculating on the possibility of the person being the right one.
So I said bartender
Ordering a drink to cope with emotions and forget.
Pour me up whatever says forget her on the rocks
Choosing a drink that signifies moving on.
Put it one my tab cause ima be here till it stops
Committing to staying until the emotions subside.
I know my friends gon' call me crazy but I'm not
Defending the unconventional approach to coping.
Cause I never felt this way
Expressing the intensity of newfound emotions.
And it's all because of you
Repeatedly attributing emotions and experiences to the person.
It's all because of you
-It's all because of you
-It's all because of you
-Girl tell me if I'm
Seeking reassurance regarding actions.
Doin'
Questioning the level of effort or expression.
Too much
Indicating recent behavior of reaching out late at night.
Cause lately I've been late night
Referencing classic R&B songs to express emotions and desires.
Calling
-You up
-And leaving voicemails like
-It's 90s R&B
-Can you "Come & Talk To Me"
-"My My My" girl
-"Can't you see you and me were meant to be"
-Then I said bartender
Repeating the order for a drink to cope with emotions.
Hit me with a double then I'm closing for the night
Opting for a stronger drink due to persistent emotional struggles.
Cause she won't call me back and I can't keep losing this fight
Expressing the difficulty in moving on.
I know my friends gon' call me crazy but their right
Acknowledging external opinions about the situation.
Cause I never felt this way
Reiterating the intensity of emotions.
And it's all because of you
Repeating the attribution of emotions and experiences to the person.
It's all because of you
-It's all because of you
-It's all because of you
