John Mayer – Slow Dancing in a Burning Room Lyrics 17 years ago
Its about being in a rocky on and off relationship. They keep getting back together, and this time they know that it is doomed from the start. they know it wont last.

"they are in a burning room"

the relationship will not last, and is eventual to end. time is running short. and they both can see that, their relationship is like a candle, and its about to burn out.

John Mayer – I Don't Trust Myself (With Loving You) Lyrics 17 years ago
Great song.

The guy is at a stage in his life, where he has been acting differently, where he has not been himself. and a girl has fallen in love with him, now he is questioning this girl, wondering why she loves him. This guy is nervous about his true self, and doesnt trust himself with the girl. he is scared to love her because he is afraid he may go back to his old self, and he will dissapoint her, or he wont be what she expected.

thats just what i think..
if that makes any sense to anyone else..

John Mayer – The Heart of Life Lyrics 17 years ago
great song. its about breaking up with someone.

"you know it's nothing new
that news never had good timing"

its a terrible feeling to break up with someone (most of the time) and there is never really a good time to do so.


"pain throws your heart to the ground
love turns the whole thing around"

breaking up hurts real bad, but love from those who care about you, like family and freinds, will make you feel better.


"but then the circle of your friends
will defend the silver lining"

your freinds will be there for you, to make you feel better.

"heart of life is good"

although the hear of life (love) can cause you pain, its still a good thing. Love is still a good thing, and will continue to be around you in good ways. (family,freinds, a new loved ones)

John Mayer – Dreaming With A Broken Heart Lyrics 17 years ago
This is an amazing song. Johns lyrics are so real. To me its about the aftermath of a relationship. He is remembering how he once had the girl over at his house, in the very room he is in now, and now that she is gone he cant beleive she was here, and misses her so much. He was used to waking up with her beside him, and the hardest part is waking up and hoping for a split second she will be there, but than realizing shes gone.

the line:

"do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?"

to me it means he dreams about her, about them being together in his dreams, and when he wakes up to reality, she is not there. so he is thinking that maybe if he slept with roses in his hand, he could give them to her in his dream, and he would wake up with her by his side.

but he once again realizes she will not get them, because she is "gone, gone , gone ,gone....

when your dreaming with a broken heart, the waking up is the hardest part...

amazing song.

John Mayer – Clarity Lyrics 17 years ago
breathe_no_more9 analysis is right on. I agree with it completley. Its about going through a rough time, than all of the sudden waking up and having this wonderful feeling about everything being alright. or maybe something has happened to make him feel real good, but he knows it wont last forever, as nothing does, so he just enjoys the moment while he can.

John Mayer – In Repair Lyrics 17 years ago
Im not fully clear as to what this song means, however it is great. My best guess would be that he has recently ended a relationship, and is still hurting, but time has passed and he is still unsure if he is ready to move on yet and find a new relationship.

"Im in repair, Im not together but im getting there"

would mean he is still not ready for a relationship, although progress has been made, he is on the road to recovery. he is just not fully there yet.

John Mayer – I'm Gonna Find Another You Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is great. Its bascially a break up song. He just got out of a relationship, he is sad to see her go, but realizes he has a chance to find someone better. even if that sounds vain. But it sounds to me like she was the mean one, so he is moving on with his life, and will find someone who will treat him right.

John Mayer – Stop This Train Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is amazing. Can't wait to get continuum. I beleive this song to simply be about worrying about growing old. He is so used to the way of life of being young, that he doesnt think he can handle getting older. He wishes that he could stop himself from aging (to stop this train of life he is on) but he knows he cannot, and will eventually arrive at his destination, the future is enevitable, you cannot stop yourself from growing old, its a part of life.
