Exes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I miss you more than I should say
But boy, I promise you it's real
You make me feel it
Do you remember when we met?
You were just visiting
I was just listening
And I thought you were in my head
But you were real love
We're two different cities
I don't care how far
If you tell me you love me
From the back of some car
I know that it can be lonely
And hard on the heart
But you know that I'm solid from the start
I'm on your side
(Oh) you're still my ride or die
Though we're not side to side
You keep me right
On your side
(Oh) I'm with you every night
Though we're not side to side
You keep me right
On your side
I'm in your corner all the time
Told me that you love when I say it
Still I don't question if you're mine
'Cause boy I know it
We're two different cities
I don't care how far
If you tell me you love me
From the back of some car
I know that it can be lonely
And hard on the heart
But you know that I'm solid from the start
I'm on your side
(Oh) you're still my ride or die
Though we're not side to side
You keep me right
On your side
(Oh) I'm with you every night
Though we're not side to side
You keep me right
On your side
On your side
On your side
On your side
On your side
I'm on your side
(Oh) you're still my ride or die
Though we're not side to side
You keep me right
On your side
(Oh) I'm with you every night
Though we're not side to side
You keep me right
I'm on your side
On your side
In this song, Exes expresses their feelings towards their ex-partner. They acknowledge that the situation is not ideal but they still miss their ex and their feelings are real. They reminisce about the time they met and how they thought it was just in their head but it turned out to be real love. Although they are in two different cities and it can be lonely and hard on the heart, they are still there for each other and will always be on each other's side.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I'm on your side" several times, emphasizing the message of the song. Exes reassure their ex-partner that they are still their ride or die, even if they are not physically together, and that they keep each other right. They also mention that they are in their corner all the time and that they don't question whether they are theirs.
The song talks about the enduring love and bond between two people who were once in a relationship and highlights how the feeling of love can stay even after the relationship ends. It is a bittersweet song that expresses both the pain of separation and the comfort of knowing that someone is always there for you.

Yeah, I know it's not ideal
I am aware that the current situation is not perfect
And I miss you more than I should say
I have strong feelings for you and miss you deeply, but I might not be expressing it enough
But boy, I promise you it's real
Despite the challenges we're facing, my feelings for you are genuine and sincere
You make me feel it
Being with you evokes strong emotions in me that I cannot deny
Do you remember when we met?
I am recalling the moment we first encountered each other
You were just visiting
At the time of our meeting, you were not a permanent resident
I was just listening
I was paying attention to you and the things you had to say
And I wishing that you could go here now
I was hoping that you could be with me in my current location
And I thought you were in my head
Initially, I thought my attraction to you was all in my mind
But you were real love
I soon realized that my feelings for you were genuine and not just a figment of my imagination
We're two different cities
We are in different locations
I don't care how far
The distance between us does not matter to me
If you tell me you love me
As long as you express your love for me
From the back of some car
Even if you have to say it while you're away or on the move
I know that it can be lonely
I understand that distance can be isolating and hard on a person
And hard on the heart
Being in a long-distance relationship can be emotionally taxing
But you know that I'm solid from the start
I want you to know that I have been committed and dedicated to this relationship from the beginning
I'm in your corner all the time
I have your back and support you no matter what
Told me that you love when I say it
You have expressed that hearing me express my love for you is important to you
Still I don't question if you're mine
Despite the distance and challenges, I am secure in our relationship and trust that you are committed to me
'Cause boy I know it
I have confidence and faith in our relationship
On your side
I am loyal and committed to being on your side in this relationship
