Passing Me By
D.C.R. Lyrics

Remember that trip we took in Mexico?
Recalling the past memory of Mexico trip with the boys and girls.

Yeah, hanging with the boys and all your señoritas
Hanging out with the guys and girls in the group.

I never spoke up, yeah, I never said hello
Hesitation to talk or introduce oneself to the other person.

But I keep on trying to find a way to meet ya
Persistently trying to find ways to approach and meet the other person.

I was chillin', you were with him
Being cool and relaxed while the other person was with someone else.

Hooked up by the fire
Getting cozy and intimate by the fire.

Now he's long gone
The other person's previous partner is no longer in the picture.

I'm like, "So long"
I'm not bothered about the other person's previous partner.

Now I got my chance
Finding a new opportunity to impress and pursue the other person.

Now I, now I got my chance
Feeling confident about having a chance with the other person.

Damn
Expressing surprise, amazement or disbelief.

You could be the one that could mess me up
Acknowledging the other person's potential to disrupt or challenge the singer's life.

You could be the one that'll break me
Acknowledging the other person's potential to break the singer's heart or spirit.

All them other girls said they had enough
Comparing the other girls with the special person and affirming that they are not good enough.

You could be the one that'll take me
Expressing the desire to be with the special person and to be taken by them.

I was solo, living YOLO
Being single and enjoying the freedom of life.

'Til you blew my mind
Feeling impressed and fascinated by the special person.

I was trying to play too cool to get caught up
Trying to act cool and casual to avoid being emotionally attached.

'Til you blew my mind
Feeling impressed and fascinated by the special person.

I know a girl like you can't ever get enough
Affirming that the special person always wants more and cannot be satisfied easily.

So I'm addicted, trippin', trying to get you to see this
Feeling addicted and desperate to make the special person realize the love and affection the singer has for them.

The way I need you, like I'm seen through
Expressing the depth of need and longing for the other person.

Dancing out my pants
Feeling excited and expressive about the situation.

Got you shooking, caught you looking
Feeling excited and triumphant about impressing and catching the other person's attention.

It's like
Introducing a new thought or idea.

Everywhere I look and everywhere I go
Expressing the all-encompassing nature of thinking about the other person.

A million other guys be staring and I know that
Feeling threatened and insecure about the other guys competing for the special person's attention.

I can be yours and you can be mine
Expressing the mutual affection and desire to be together.

I just can't let you pass me by – by – by
Feeling determined and committed to not let the opportunity of being with the special person pass them by.

Yeah girl
Addressing the special person affectionately.

Can't let you go
Feeling reluctant to move on from the special person.

Can't let you pass me by
Feeling determined to pursue and be with the special person.
