Reboot
17 Memphis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’m on the borderline of breakdown
Cuz you left last night
feeling round this empty bed
I can’t sleep right
You know I didn’t mean it
When I said don’t come home
Won’t keep you from leaving
Pre:
Every word you said to me is on playback
Said you’re done again, why you have do that? Is that how this ends ?
Are we better off friends ?
Hook:
And I Can’t go back now
Even if I wanted to turn it all around
Cuz my judgments clouded
Tell myself you’re missing out,But I doubt it...
don’t have an excuse, I just miss you
Can we get a re -doo?
Give our love a reboot ?
You’re taking long to respond to my text
You’re already off w someone else in head
long gone without single regret
And I’m still holding on,
And every song reminds me of us
N how it was when we fell in love
We could better than we’ve ever been
Just tell me you’re down to try it all again
Every word you said to me is on playback
Said you’re done again, why you have do that? Is that how this ends ?
Are we better off friends ?
And I Can’t go back now
Even if I wanted to turn it all around
Cuz my judgments clouded
Tell myself you’re missing out,But I doubt it...
don’t have an excuse, I just miss you
Can we get a re -doo?
Give our love a reboot ?
Bridge:
What do you say
We could try again
Everything brand new
What do you say
We could make amends
It’s just me and you
Can we get a redo?
Can we get a reboot?
Can we get a redo?
Can we get a reboot?
Ooooooooooooooo

I’m on the borderline of breakdown
Feeling emotionally unstable and overwhelmed
Cuz you left last night
Because you walked out on me
feeling round this empty bed
Painfully aware of your absence in this bed
I can’t sleep right
I am unable to rest properly
You know I didn’t mean it
I regret saying hurtful things
When I said don’t come home
When I pushed you away
Won’t keep you from leaving
I can't force you to stay
But I can’t stand you being gone
I struggle with your absence
Every word you said to me is on playback
I keep replaying our conversations in my mind
Said you’re done again, why you have do that?
You declared it's over, why do you keep ending things?
Is that how this ends ?
Is this really the end?
Are we better off friends ?
Should we just remain friends?
And I Can’t go back now
I can't change what has already happened
Even if I wanted to turn it all around
Even if I desperately wish to make things right
Cuz my judgments clouded
My emotions are clouding my judgment
Tell myself you’re missing out,But I doubt it...
I try to convince myself you're missing out without me, but I doubt it
don’t have an excuse, I just miss you
I can't justify my actions, I simply miss you
Can we get a re -doo?
Can we have a second chance?
Give our love a reboot ?
Can we start fresh and revive our relationship?
You’re taking long to respond to my text
You're taking a while to reply to my messages
You’re already off w someone else in head
You're mentally moving on to someone else
long gone without a single regret
You've left without looking back or feeling remorse
And I’m still holding on
Meanwhile, I'm still clinging to hope
And every song reminds me of us
Every song triggers memories of our relationship
N how it was when we fell in love
And how it felt when we first fell in love
We could be better than we’ve ever been
We have the potential to improve our relationship
Just tell me you’re down to try it all again
Just confirm that you're willing to give us another chance
What do you say
How do you feel about
We could try again
Reattempting our relationship
Everything brand new
Starting fresh with a new perspective
We could make amends
We could reconcile and make things right
It’s just me and you
It's only between us
Can we get a redo?
Can we have a fresh start?
Can we get a reboot?
Can we reset and revive our love?
Ooooooooooooooo

You know I didn't mean it
When I said don’t come home
Won't keep you from leaving
But I can't stand you being gone
Every word you said to me is on playback
Said you're done again, why you have do that?
Is this how it ends?
Are we better off friends?
And I can't go back now
Even if I wanted to turn it all around
'Cause my judgments clouded
Tell myself you're missing out, but I doubt it...
Don't have an excuse, I just miss you
Can we get a redo?
Give our love a reboot?
You’re taking too long to respond to my text
Already off with someone else in head
Long gone without single regret
And I’m still here
And I'm holding on
Every song reminds me of us
And how it was when we fell in love
We could be better than we’ve ever been
Just tell me you're down to try it all again
Every word you said to me is on playback
Said you're done again, why you have do that?
Is this how it ends?
Are we better off friends?
And I can't go back now

It's just me and you
Can we get a redo?
Can we get a reboot?
Can we get a redo?
Can we get a reboot?
And I can't go back now
Even if I wanted to turn it all around
'Cause my judgments clouded
Tell myself you're missing out, but I doubt it...
Don't have an excuse, I just miss you
Can we get a redo?
Give our love a reboot?
