Figure It Out
4.2 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I, I got her number
I’m not a stalker
With each mile under these tires
I want to turn back
I’ll come running back
To your house, sit on your couch
And let you talk for days
Oh, do you feel it now?
Because I figured it out
But do you feel it now?
Today I woke up alone, my head caught in a storm
But you are back at your table
I’m living in fable
Feel the miles stack up in piles
I want to return
So much left to learn
Beyond a single tryst
Beyond a simple kiss
And let you talk for days
Do you feel it now?
Oh, do you feel it now?
Because I got it figured out
But I don’t know how
I could put you down
I can’t put you down
What do you think?
Meet up for a drink?
Whiskey and ginger what do you say?
The passing of time like wind through the chime
I am with you all the way
If you’ve anything to say
I’ll beg you talk for days
Tonight I’m back home again in my dream land
But I still hear your voice
Feel your resounding joy
But despite the miles you’re here in mind
I feel like I’m with you
Lost in the rear view
Minds change so fast
Don’t say that it’s passed
When there are still games to be played
I wanna hear you talk for days
Do you feel it now?
Oh, do you feel it now?
Because I figured out
But I don’t know how
I could put you down
I can’t put you down
Do you feel it now?
Oh, do you feel it now?
Because I figured out
I really feel it now
Oh God, I feel it now
But do you feel it now like I’m feeling it now?
Oh, do you feel it now?

Line by Line Meaning
Last night I let a stranger slip through my fingers
Last night I missed an opportunity with someone I barely knew
But I, I got her number
But luckily, I was still able to obtain her phone number
I’m not a stalker
I want to make it clear that I am not trying to pursue her in an unwanted or creepy way
With each mile under these tires
As I drive further away from her, I become more and more regretful
I want to turn back
I wish I could go back and make things right
I’ll come running back
If given the chance, I will not hesitate to return and try again
To your house, sit on your couch
I want to be with her in her personal space and listen to her talk
And let you talk for days
I want her to feel comfortable enough to share everything with me
Do you feel it now?
Do you understand my desire to be with you?
Oh, do you feel it now?
I hope you can sense how strongly I feel about you
Because I figured it out
I finally realized that I have genuine feelings for you
Today I woke up alone, my head caught in a storm
I woke up feeling lost and confused without her
But you are back at your table
But she has moved on and is carrying on with her life
I’m living in fable
I am still dreaming about what could have been
Feel the miles stack up in piles
The physical distance between us is only adding to my pain
So much left to learn
I feel like I have only scratched the surface of who she really is
Beyond a single tryst
I want more than just a fling or a one-time thing with her
I’ll beg you talk for days
I am willing to listen to her talk about anything and everything for as long as she wants
Whiskey and ginger what do you say?
Would you like to go out for a drink with me and have a good time?
The passing of time like wind through the chime
Time seems to move quickly and easily without her
I am with you all the way
I am committed to being there for her, no matter what
If you’ve anything to say
I am eager and open to hearing anything she has to say
Tonight I’m back home again in my dream land
Tonight, my thoughts and dreams are consumed with thoughts of her
But I still hear your voice
I can still remember the sound of her voice as if she is right here with me
Despite the miles you’re here in mind
Even though we are far apart physically, she still occupies a significant space in my thoughts
Minds change so fast
People can change their minds quickly and unexpectedly
Don’t say that it’s passed
Don't give up on what we could have together just yet
When there are still games to be played
There is still so much potential for us to explore
But I don’t know how
I am unsure of how to proceed with my feelings for her
I could put you down
I could try to forget about you, but I don't want to
I can’t put you down
I am not able to forget about you, no matter how hard I try
I really feel it now
My emotions for her are more intense than ever before
Oh God, I feel it now
I am experiencing a deep emotional connection with her
But do you feel it now like I’m feeling it now?
I am hoping that she is feeling the same emotions as I am now
