I Don't Mind
Ian McConnell Lyrics

The credits roll
The movie has ended and the credits are being displayed on the screen.

On the movie that you begged for me to see
The singer's lover had asked them to watch this particular movie.

You were so excited
The lover was extremely happy and cheerful before the movie started.

Still 30 minutes in you fell asleep
The lover couldn't stay awake and dozed off within half an hour of the movie.

You’re unaware
The lover isn't conscious of their actions.

You cut off circulation to my arm
The lover has unintentionally caused discomfort in the singer's arm by lying on it.

Still I don’t dare
The singer doesn't want to wake their lover up or disturb them in any way.

To disturb how beautiful you are
The artist admires their lover too much to interrupt them.

This is never what I wanted
The artist didn't plan on falling in love or getting attached to someone.

Never where I saw things going
The artist never thought their life would take this turn.

I’m more of a leaver than a take things slow and Steady kind of lover
The singer is typically someone who doesn't like to get too attached to anyone or anything.

But here I am in utter admiration
Despite this, the artist is completely in awe of their lover.

Turned into a brand new human
The singer's life has changed drastically since they fell in love.

Falling all over for everything you do and say
The singer has developed strong feelings for their lover and is attracted to them in every way.

And I’m afraid
Despite all the love and admiration, the singer is scared of getting hurt or losing their lover.

But I don’t mind
Despite the fear, the artist is willing to accept the changes and challenges that come with being in love.

You turned my life upside down
The artist's lover has completely changed their life.

How could I know
The singer never thought they would feel this way about someone.

The way it’d feel to give away my heart
The singer has never felt this vulnerable or exposed before.

It’s like my legs are made of lead
The artist is so overwhelmed with emotions that they can barely stand or move.

And there’s a symphony in my head
The artist's thoughts and emotions are mixed up and chaotic.

And it’s out of tune and it’s not together
The artist's feelings don't make sense and don't fit together.

And it’s beautiful
Despite the confusion, the singer finds their feelings towards their lover to be beautiful.

Every plan I’ve ever made has gone to hell
The artist's previous plans and goals have all been disrupted due to their newfound love.

My common sense is out as well
The singer's logical thinking and reasoning have been clouded by their emotions.

My heart’s a wreck and I don’t mind
Even though their heart is in shambles, the singer is okay with it because they are in love.

‘Cause when you wake up
The singer anticipates their lover waking up from their nap.

You’ll groan and you’ll apologize to me
The lover will feel bad for falling asleep during the movie and for making the artist uncomfortable.

And kiss me soft
The lover will show their affection for the artist with a soft kiss.

The sofa fabric pattern on your cheek
The lover's cheek will leave an imprint from the sofa fabric.

I’m new to this
The singer is inexperienced and new to being in love for a long time.

Idea of loving someone all my life
The artist realizes that they want to love their lover for the rest of their life.

But if you don’t mind Then I don’t mind
The artist is willing to love their lover and deal with the ups and downs of a long-term relationship, as long as their lover feels the same way.
