You Said
Connor Price Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a little late for apologies
Would never want me back
And now you're calling me
It's a little late
But who am I to say
Cause I would take you back
So what's it gonna be?
Verse 1
Yeah
Came back with that bouquet and apology note (yeah)
Told me that it's too late I should probably go (yeah)
Drove home on that same road
Same one that you'd take home
The morning after you stay over
Hard to see it go (yeah)
What you mean it's over why you walking out
Made a few mistakes I know I'm sorry let's just talk it out
All I know is days are getting darker when you not around
Hundred times apologizing isn't that enough
But you said
Chorus
You said
It's a little late for apologies
Would never want me back
And now you're calling me
It's a little late
But who am I to say
Cause I would take you back
So what's it gonna be?
Verse 2
Heard that you were hanging with another guy
Phone started ringing heard your voice on the other side
Told me you were sorry that we ended things
And now you want me back so we can try a second thing
Hmm..
So you telling me that you spent some time with another guy
To see the grass on the other side was greener here
And you re-appear in my life thinking I'd love to try
Wait
What about when I tried that
You told me you ain't like that
You got a brand new guy got side tracked
Heart got broken and now you want mine back
Why you coming back the moment I decide to move on
Playing with my heart you make it hard to know the truth huh
Don't know what to do cause honestly I'm missing you
I haven't been the same since you went away but I said
Chorus
It's a little late for apologies
Didn't want me back
And now you're calling me
It's a little late for apologies
Cause you were never there
When you promised me
It's a little late for apologies
Didn't want me back
Stop calling me
It's a little late for apologies
And now the tables turned
So I'm the one to leave
In the beginning of Connor Price's song "You Said," the singer expresses feelings of confusion and vulnerability as an ex-partner attempts to re-enter their life. The singer opens the song by saying that the ex-partner had previously stated that it was too late for apologies and that they would never want the singer back. However, the ex-partner is now calling the singer and expressing their desire to reconcile. Despite the ex-partner's past behavior, the singer admits that they would still take them back, asking the ex-partner what they want to do.
The first verse of the song goes on to describe a scenario in which the ex-partner comes back with an apology note and a bouquet of flowers. The singer tries to hold onto their relationship and expresses confusion over why the ex-partner is walking out when they've made a few mistakes. The singer apologizes repeatedly, but the ex-partner is still insistent on leaving. The chorus repeats that it's a little late for apologies and the ex-partner would never want the singer back.
In the second verse, the singer reveals that they've heard the ex-partner has been hanging out with another guy. The ex-partner calls the singer to apologize and express their desire to try again. However, the singer is wary of the ex-partner's intentions and feels hurt by the fact that the ex-partner was with another person. The chorus then repeats, but with a twist: now, the tables have turned, and the singer is the one leaving.
Overall, "You Said" explores feelings of vulnerability, desperation, and confusion in the aftermath of a relationship. The song highlights the difficulty of moving on from past relationships and the ways in which people can struggle to let go of their ex-partners, no matter how badly they've been hurt.
