Mona Lisa
Mona Lisa: A Drunken Confession of Longing and Redemption
Lyrics
I know I'm drunk right now but I need ya
I acknowledge being intoxicated, but I need you.
No I shouldn't be calling you up
Despite knowing I shouldn't, I'm calling you.
I'm looking back on us like a picture
Reflecting on our past like a picture.
You my Mona Lisa, baby
You are my masterpiece, my Mona Lisa.
I'm talking crazy right now but can I see ya
Expressing unconventional thoughts, but can I see you?
I know I wasn't always good enough
Admitting I wasn't always good enough.
But can't lie girl know that I miss ya
Despite flaws, I genuinely miss you, girl.
You my Mona Lisa, baby
You remain my Mona Lisa, baby.
Woo ooh ooh ooooh
Repetition emphasizing the significance of the comparison.
You my Mona Lisa, baby
-Woo ooh ooh ooooh
-You my Mona Lisa, baby
-Thought I moved on but it's been hard these days
Struggling to move on, finding it hard.
Still got your texts in my mind on replay
Your messages linger in my thoughts.
Pickin up the phone, yeah, hope it's not too late
Calling, hoping it's not too late.
Had a little too much, really can't see straight
Intoxication making it difficult to see clearly.
Where it went left, trynna get right, yeah
Trying to correct the course after a wrong turn.
Hear it in your voice, know it take time though
Recognizing the time needed to heal.
Through it all, ya been on my mind
You've been on my mind through thick and thin.
Trynna get back
Striving to return to a better past.
To when it was just you and I, yeah yeah
Desiring a return to the simplicity of "you and I."
I know I'm drunk right now but I need ya
Repetition emphasizing emotional attachment.
No I shouldn't be calling you up
-I'm looking back on us like a picture
-You my Mona Lisa, baby
-I'm talking crazy right now but can I see ya
-I know I wasn't always good enough
-But can't lie girl know that I miss ya
-You my Mona Lisa, baby
-Woo ooh ooh ooooh
Reiteration of the Mona Lisa comparison.
You my Mona Lisa, baby
-Woo ooh ooh ooooh
-You my Mona Lisa, baby
-So whatch say, yeah, whatcha sayin
Asking for a response or opinion.
Still love the way you laugh I'm not playin
Expressing genuine love for the way she laughs.
Even if there half a chance we could take it
Considering a chance to revive the connection.
At the pace of a slow jam baby
Pacing the relationship like a slow jam.
Yeah
Reaffirming commitment and sincerity.
Feelin' light
Feeling light-hearted, possibly optimistic.
Could be there if u like
Offering support or presence if she desires.
Talkin' to you easy don't even gotta try
Easily conversing with her, no effort required.
Just
Expressing a desire to improve the relationship.
Know that I
-Wanna make it better this time
Intent on making things better this time.
Take what we had but make it right, yeah
Wanting to correct past mistakes and make it right.
I know I'm drunk right now but I need ya
Repetition of emotional sentiments.
No I shouldn't be calling you up
-I'm looking back on us like a picture
-You my Mona Lisa, baby
