Lyrics

Well, I see you everyday

Observation of encountering the person daily


A brother, a sister,

Referring to the person as a brother or sister

I found them drawing pictures of the spring

Discovering them engaged in creating images of spring

on the floor, on the floor

Emphasis on the location of the drawings, on the floor

A city of no one,

Describing a place as a city of no one

the place I wish you wouldn't take me back to

Expressing a reluctance to revisit a specific place

anymore, anymore

Reiterating a reluctance towards that place


Well, I see you everyday

Repetition of seeing the person daily

But I like you as a friend

Indicating a preference for a platonic relationship


I don't want to eat too much

Stating a desire to avoid excessive consumption for basic needs

and have a place to live in

Expressing a preference for having a home

I don't want to drink too much

Expressing a desire to avoid excessive drinking

I don't need to hear it

Asserting independence from unwanted advice or opinions

Well, I see you everyday

Reiteration of seeing the person daily

but I like you as a friend

Repeating a preference for a friendship


A brother, a sister,

Repetition of the brother or sister metaphor

I found them drawing pictures of the spring

Reiteration of drawing pictures of spring

on the floor, on the floor

Re-emphasizing the location of the drawings on the floor

A city of no one,

Describing a city of no one again

the place I wish you wouldn't take me back to

Repeating reluctance towards revisiting a specific place

anymore, anymore

Reiterating reluctance towards that place


Well, I see you everyday

Reiteration of seeing the person daily

But I like you as a friend

Repeating a preference for a platonic relationship


I don't want to eat too much

Restating a desire to avoid excessive consumption for basic needs

and have a place to live in

Reiterating a preference for having a home

I don't want to drink too much

Repeating a desire to avoid excessive drinking

I don't need to hear it

Reiterating independence from unwanted advice or opinions

Well, I see you everyday

Reiteration of seeing the person daily

but I like you as a friend

Repeating a preference for a friendship


Well, I see you everyday

Final repetition of seeing the person daily

but I like you as a friend

Concluding with a reiterated preference for a platonic relationship
