Too Good To Be True
Anees Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night it's true
But I know that you, yeah
You come through on nights where it all seems right
It's just too good to be true
It's always too good to be true with you
Cause you had me brand new
I had plans to give you everything, girl
And I would have sold time
Just to get high on our memories, girl
It was me and you gainst the world
Baby, I loved our odds
But it was just a facade
You let me love a mirage
If you knew that it wasn't true girl
Then why would you steal my time from me
That's why you got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night it's true
Painting pictures more vivid than northern lights
Late nights, ponder images of only your face
Writing scriptures like Christians with good intentions
Cause I'm preaching bout the miracles you bring me each day
If I had a penny for every time you run on my mind
I could buy anything except for your time
And you don't even want mine
And trust me baby, that's fine
That's why you got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night it's true
But I know that you
You come through on nights where it all seems right
It's just too good to be true
It's always too good to be true with you
That's why you got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night it's true
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night it's true
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
You got me up late at night
I been thinking, I been thinking
When I'm up late at night about you
You got me
The lyrics of "Too Good To Be True" by Anees convey a sense of longing and regret for a past relationship that brought joy but ultimately turned out to be false. The singer reveals that he had plans to give everything to his partner and recalls how they had faced the world together, feeling invincible with the odds in their favor. However, he eventually realizes that the love he received was just a mirage, and he could not believe how someone could steal his time in such a manner. He concludes that his partner was too good to be true, and everything they had seemed perfect but ultimately turned out to be fraudulent.
The lyrics paint a picture of a deep emotional connection with someone, where every thought is consumed by that person. The singer is struggling to come to terms with the fact that his love was not reciprocated, and he feels his heart has been broken. The poetic language used to describe their relationship serves to highlight the depth of the singer's feelings and the passion that characterized it. The final lines of the song convey a mix of hope and acceptance, acknowledging that the experience of loving this person was valuable but that it ultimately did not last.

I can't stop thinking about you and I have even been writing about my feelings for you like a poet. You are the only miracle in my life.
