You Were The One
Binocular Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's Friday night and I can
Just talk for hours and hours
'Til I wake up and wonder
Where the time went

When you were the one I loved
You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved

You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved
I loved

Now lock your doors and chain up
All of your mixed emotions
'Cause they will come and get you
Just when you don't

'Cause you were the one I loved
You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved

You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved

You just look around and wonder why
You've wondered so long so hard and you're still wrong
I'd have taken you back, I'd have taken you back
When you were the one I loved

So we've been through the motions
And suffer these delusions
I'll dream away my sorrows
On through the night

'Cause you were the one I loved
You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved

You were the one I loved
You were the one I loved




You were the one I loved
I loved

Where the time went
Wondering where the time has gone

Reinforcing the above statement


Now lock your doors and chain up
Protecting oneself from emotional pain and vulnerability

The array of emotions someone experiences with a love interest


'Cause they will come and get you
Emotions will resurface at unexpected times


Just when you don't
When one has let their guard down


You just look around and wonder why
One may question why they are still struggling with emotions from a past love interest


You've wondered so long so hard and you're still wrong
Continuing to struggle with emotions despite trying to move on


I'd have taken you back, I'd have taken you back

So we've been through the motions
Going through the process of moving on and attempting to let go

Escaping negative emotions by dreaming


On through the night
Continuing to dream and escape emotions


I loved
