I Don't Mind
Adam Hender Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I heard the other day
He took you out on a real date
Just when I thought we were getting somewhere
Just when I thought we were getting closer, I guess not

I hate what your friends say
And I know it′s not my place
But baby it hurts when I see you smiling
He tells his jokes with such good timing

But I don't mind if you take your time, be true
I don′t want to lose but you, do you

So call me if you don't feel right
Even if it makes you cry
It could be the middle of the night
We could talk, we could find what we left behind

Replaying in my head
Remember we would dance in your bedroom
Together we had plans but they fell through
To you our memories are old news

So I don't mind if you take your time, be true
I don′t want to lose but you do you

So call me if you don′t feel right
Even if it makes you cry
It could be the middle of the night
We could talk, we could find what we left behind

Call me if there's nothing wrong
′Cause you know I'm still holding on
It could be the middle of the night
We could talk, we could find what we left behind, oh no

I don′t care what you're searching for
′Cause I'm needed you now more than ever before
More than ever before

I don't mind if you, take your time, be true
I don′t want to lose, but you, do you

So call me if you don′t feel right
Even if it makes you cry
It could be the middle of the night
We could talk, we could find, what we left

So call me if you don't feel right
Even if it makes you cry
It could be the middle of the night
We could talk, we could find, what we left behind

Call me if there′s nothing wrong
'Cause you know I′m still holding on
It could be the middle of the night
We could talk, we could find, what we left behind





I don't want to lose, but you do you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "I Don't Mind" by Adam Hender may seem simple at first, but they carry a lot of emotional weight when analyzed deeply. The song describes a situation where the singer learns that the person they are interested in went on a date with someone else, even though the singer thought that they were getting closer. The lyrics convey the singer's frustration and disappointment at this turn of events, but also their willingness to wait for the person to figure things out and to be there for them if they need support.


The opening lines set the tone for the rest of the song, as the singer reveals that they found out that the person they like went on a real date. This news is a blow to the singer, who thought that they were making progress in their relationship. The chorus of the song emphasizes that the singer is willing to wait for the other person to figure things out and that they don't want to lose them, even if it means putting their own desires aside.


The second verse of the song brings up memories of the time that the singer and the other person spent together. The singer remembers dancing in the other person's bedroom and making plans together that ultimately fell through. The lyrics suggest that the other person is not as invested in these memories as the singer is, which adds another layer of complexity to the situation.


Overall, "I Don't Mind" is a song that deals with the challenges and frustrations of unrequited love. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and disappointment, but also of patience and understanding. The singer is willing to wait for the other person to figure things out, even if it means keeping their own feelings on the back burner.
