Problems Problems
Frankie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't (know know)
I don't (know know)

I
I'm going numb to be put on the side
You used to sit me so high up on your shoulders
Those days are over
Why
you
you are a force of nature? Just like the moon!
You got a hold on me, it's pulling me tighter
Bringing me closer to you.

I just wanna know what it's like
Looking at the world through your bright eyes
Tell me how it is from inside,
Like your mind is my mind!

Baby baby
you've been so silent to me lately, lately
It's like you disappeared, the night's so cold
Can't miss the last train home
Problems, problems,
I know that everybody's got them, got them
But let's not do this here, the night's so cold
Can't miss the last train home

Here
I feel the snowflakes falling down on my ears
But we're just standing still, so deep in the silence
No piece in the quiet here,
Time's moving so slow.

I just wanna know what it's like
Looking at the world through your bright eyes
Tell me how it is from inside,
Like your mind is my mind!

Baby baby, you've been so silent to me lately, lately
It's like you disappeared, the night's so cold
Can't miss the last train home
Problems, problems,
I know that everybody's got them, got them
But let's not do this here, the night's so cold
Can't miss the last train home

You don't even notice any picture perfect moment
when you're lost up in your nothing
Just gone for days,
So here's a turn to hoping
Pray for you to notice,
Can you meet me half-way?

Baby
you've been so silent to me lately, lately
It's like you disappeared, the night's so cold
CanΒ΄t miss the last train home
No nooo
Baby baby
you've been so silent to me lately, lately
It's like you disappeared, the night's so cold
Can't miss the last train home
No oh
Problems, problems,
I know that everybody's got them, got them
But let's not do this here, the night's so cold
Can't miss the last train home




The night's so cold
Can't miss the last train home

lyrics : Love you Frankie :)


I don't (know, know)

I, I'm growing numb to being put on the side
You used to sit me up so high up on your shoulders
Those days are over, why?
You, you are a force of nature, just like the moon
You got a hold on me, it's pulling me tighter
Bringing me closer to you

I just wanna know what it's like
Looking at the world through your bright eyes
Tell me how it is from inside
Like your mind is my mind

Baby, baby, you've been so silent to me lately, lately
It's like you disappeared
The night's so cold, can't miss the last train home
Problems, problems
I know that everybody's got 'em, got 'em
But let's not do this here
The night's so cold, can't miss the last train home

So cold
Yeah, yeah, you're a problem child
I can spot you for miles
If it ain't about this, then it's that
I can see your heartbreak through your smile
And a gold in your tooth can't fix that
And the holes in your clothes don't expose ya
And I know that the picture in your frame
Is the one where you crying on my shoulder

Yeah, I just wanna know what it's like
Starring at the world through your bright eyes
He just want a reason to fight
But you know you on my side

Baby, baby, you've been so silent to me lately, lately
It's like you disappeared
The night's so cold, can't miss the last train home
No, problems, problems
I know that everybody's got 'em, got 'em
But let's not do this here
The night's so cold, can't miss the last train home

You don't even notice any picture perfect moment
When you're lost up in your nothing
Just gone for days
So here's a turn toast hoping
Prayer for you to notice
Oh, can you meet me halfway
No

Problems, problems
I know that everybody's got 'em, got 'em
But let's not do this here
The night's so cold, can't miss the last train home

The night's so cold, can't miss the last train home
I don’t (know)

First listened to this song in 2015 after getting my heart broken for the first time. Brings back memories listening to this - glad it's got a music video now!

@CineMaticVloGGerFrankeyBhujel

Frankie is so underrated .

@Josephineh729

Wish this band was still making music, her voice is undeniably great and unique in such a good way. Nearly impossible for most artists to sing the way she canπŸ™ŒπŸ½

@ninjabunnee

LOVE THE ACOUSTIC IN LA BETTER BUT I FULLY ENJOY A STRESS RELIEF FROM SINGING TO BOTH 😌

@BambiiBrownie
