Thinkin' Bout You Lyrics

Cover art for Thinkin' Bout You lyrics by Frank Ocean

This song is so sad, beautifully tragic. It's about unrequited love. This person loves this other person, but that person doesn't seem to notice that that person loves this person. This song is full of contradictories and lies. The first line about the tornado ruining his room, he says that his life is a mess because of something else, but really about the fact this person doesn't realise that he loves him. As you can tell this person thinks about this person a lot. In the second stanza it's to ridicule the person who doesn't realise how stupid he is that he can't see that he loves him. He didn't kiss him because of love but for fun (Lie #1) Got a beach house I can sell you in Idaho (Lie #2 there are no beaches in Idaho but there are lake houses) Since you think I don't love you I just thought you were cute that's why I kissed you (Lie #3 Direct line to show that this guy loves him but doesn't know it). In the third stanza he confronts this guy about his emotions, saying he's his first love and how he wishes this story would end up beautiful from colour to black and white.
