You
Summer Memories and Heartache: Zophia Dadlez's Poetic Reflection
Lyrics
Maybe I was wrong about the girl propped in your lap
Reflecting on the possibility of being mistaken about a girl on someone's lap.
The physics were all fine but the feeling just fell flat
Acknowledging that the physical aspects were fine, but the emotional connection was lacking.
And no matter how rejoicing, no matter how much you laugh
Regardless of joy and laughter, the person is always in the singer's thoughts.
You're always thinking of me and you're always thinking back
Constant reflection on the past and memories involving the singer.
And I understand the weakness that befalls us both with time
Understanding the vulnerability that time brings to both individuals.
But it would be weakness too to take you back and I must draw the line
Deciding that taking the person back would be a weakness, setting a boundary.
Or should I light a candle and just tell you it's alright
Contemplating whether to forgive and move on or hold onto grievances.
Cause lord knows that we both want it, even if just one last time
Acknowledging mutual desire, even if it's for one last time.
Cause now I know why they say that they thought of another
Understanding why others may have thought of someone else.
Cause he felt like you but you taste like summer
Comparing the physical and sensory experiences with the past person.
Sometimes it's concession sometimes it is fun
Recognizing that relationships involve both compromise and enjoyment.
But every time I think of you at least once
Thinking about the person frequently, suggesting a lingering impact.
I should just settle in with my right hand and go to bed like that
Considering self-reliance but struggling with the desire for companionship.
Cause if it's not you, I don't want it and I'm sorry it was ever bad
Expressing a strong preference for the person, despite past difficulties.
And I could use a drink I think, but not alone again
Contemplating the need for a drink to cope with loneliness.
Oh the one I've got's from Albany, I think of you each time I pop the can
Associating a specific drink with memories of the person.
And it feels sacrilegious to take two out and share
Feeling conflicted about sharing the drink, as it symbolizes emotional barriers.
That means letting someone in and reminding myself you're still there
Avoiding intimacy to protect oneself from the reminder of the person's presence.
And I could lay at home tonight and cancel all my plans
Considering canceling plans to stay at home and reflect on the situation.
Or I could just go through with it and claim it's all to understand
Weighing the option of going through with plans to gain understanding and closure.
Cause now I know why they say that they thought of another
Reiterating the realization that others may have thought of someone else.
Cause he felt like you but you taste like summer
Comparing sensory experiences again, emphasizing the uniqueness of the person.
Sometimes it is weakness sometimes it is fun
Acknowledging the dual nature of relationships, with moments of weakness and enjoyment.
But every time I think of you at least once
Repeating the persistent thoughts of the person despite the struggles.
You, you, you, you
Emphasizing the constant presence of thoughts about the person.
You, you, you, you
-You, you, you, you
-Every time i think of you at least once
