So Close
J Rice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you never tell me nothin girl
And everytime that I ask you
What the problem is.
You say "nothin". "Don′t worry bout it"
"It don't concern you, so just return to
What you were doin′. before I met you"
Damn!
I still remember when we were
So close
You would say please don't leave
Then I'd start to get up but you were holdin me
So close
I never thought that you would go
Girl I took you for granted,
Now I′m missin
When we were
So close
Closer than anything, anyone
Girl you know that we were
So close so close so close
So close so close so close...
And your... body kept tellin me
You wanted me
Unfortunately, you don′t listen no.
Your mind was confusin you
Sayin to never...
Trust him... hmm
I said "forget you
And just return to
What you were doin
Before I met you"
Damn!
I never knew I could be so cold
But I still remember when we were
And maybe it's for the best
You and I... would never last
You were young
I was a fool
But I can′t stop thinkin bout.when we were
The lyrics of J Rice's song "So Close" describe the singer's frustration with his partner who refuses to communicate with him. Despite asking her repeatedly what is wrong, she always responds with "nothing" and tells him not to worry about it. This indifference from his partner makes him feel cold, and he reminisces about a time when they were much closer. The lyrics suggest that their physical connection was strong, but their inability to understand each other's minds caused them to drift apart. Towards the end of the song, the singer reflects that perhaps it's for the best that they separate, but he can't help dwelling on the memories of when they were together.
The lyrics of "So Close" tap into the universal experience of miscommunication and the difficulties of maintaining a relationship. The singer's frustration with his partner's lack of communication is a relatable experience for many people. The song conveys a sense of nostalgia and longing for a past that has been lost. The lyrics also suggest that sometimes it's better to let go of a relationship that isn't working out, even if it's difficult to move on.
