Ken Boothe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

THINKING
1. Thinking, how we use to be
Yes I'm thinking, how it was only you and me
We use to stroll along the park
Holding hands together
Chorus
Oh it was so nice, when we were friends
Oh, oh, oh it was so nice, when we were friends
That's why
2. I'm thinking, how we use to be
Yes I'm thinking, how it was always you and me
Do you remember, that night in September
Chorus
Oh it was so nice, when we were friends
Oh, oh, oh it was so nice, when we were friends
That's why
I'm thinking mmm
Solo
3. Thinking, how we use to be
Yes I'm thinking, how it was always you and me
Do you remember, that night in September
Chorus
Oh it was so nice, when we were friends
Oh, oh, oh it was so nice, when we were friends
That's why
I'm thinking how we use to be
I'm thinking how it was always you and me

The second verse follows the same structure as the first, with Boothe further reflecting on their relationship. He recalls a night in September, perhaps the turning point in their relationship when they started drifting apart. Despite this, he still yearns for the past, where things were simpler, and they were still friends. The third verse follows the same pattern as the previous two verses, with Boothe lamenting about their past relationship and longing for a time where it was just the two of them.


Overall, "Thinking" is a poignant reflection on the past and how we often yearn for what once was, particularly in romantic relationships.
