| There For Tomorrow – Remember When (Used to Be Used to It) Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
The guy’s lover did something (Probably cheated or lied about something else or of the sort) ["You were running out of lies to keep me under/Afraid of your back hands"] behind his back, early in the relationship ["It was out of its time, it was undiscovered"]. The man finds out and first wonders if he had done something to maybe cause this ["And if you would've seen me at my best/Would it have changed anything at all?"]. He then confronts his lover about it, and he is scared to know the answer ["Your initial reply hit me undercover;So to speak, you had me shaking at the knees"]. He most likely loves this person deeply and part of him doesn’t want to hear that he has been lied too. Now that he knows the truth ["Your initial reply hit me undercover/When I lost my head to it/It was out of its time, it was undiscovered/As I caught my breath again"] he doesn’t know what to do next ["But I don't know the way out of this mess/No, I don't know the way out of this mess;And I'm still waiting for a sign/Or just a win-win situation"]. He thinks maybe if he had been stronger, or at his best["And if you would've seen me at my best Would it have changed anything at all?;Now watch me break/Breakdown this time, this time again"], he could have prevented what had happened. He remembers those times when they were happy together, and thinks about how they never had to remember when times were better ["Remember when -- we never had to remember when times were better/When times were better than this/We never had to remember when times were better/When times were better than this"]. He tries to stay strong, and asks for the same answer, but without the sound of that person’s devastation (at the fact that they got caught) setting in ["Can I hear it one more time?/Without the sound of devastation setting in"]. I know I might have missed a bit, but just reply to correct/add to mine. ^.^ |
