Polish Girl Lyrics

Cover art for Polish Girl lyrics by Neon Indian

I dont think that its about an old love. I believe its about a woman he knows mutually through people, a girl he has only seen from afar. From what he knows he thinks she is perfect and spends a large amount of time thinking about her. He feels hopeless because his thoughts of her distort the time therefore he hopes and prays that she feels the same and is experiencing the same pain as him, but he also knows that it's ridiculous to think that.

My Interpretation

Reminds me of how I feel about a guy I like at work lol... I see him from afar and yeah... I love the lines "Was this only in my head; Just like most things go misread; when overthought" because it's so true.
