Thinking of You
Molly Jenson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I-Don't-Know-Your-Name
I saw you two months ago
I wonder if you remember me like
I remember you
And I don't know if this means anything to you
But I can't stop thinking of you
But I can't stop thinking of you
This is for you Mister Movie Man
And everything you seem to understand
And while you are up somewhere in the sky
I'll plan on you if you don't mind
And I don't know if this means anything to you
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I don't know if this means anything to you
But I can't stop thinking of you
Maybe I'll drive out your way one day
And settle this once and for all
I'll settle this
I'll settle this
Once and for all
This is for you visionary man and everything in me you began,
I know that I said I was over you,
But remind me of why why why we're through
I don't know if this means anything to you
I can't stop thinking of you
And I don't know if this means anything to you
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I don't know if this means anything to you
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I don't know if this means anything to you
But I can't stop thinking of you...
The song "Thinking Of You" by Molly Jenson is a heartfelt tribute to a man that the singer does not know well, but whom she cannot stop thinking about. At the outset of the song, Jenson sings directly to the man, apologizing for not knowing his name and reminiscing about their brief encounter two months prior. She wonders if he remembers her the way she remembers him, suggesting that their interaction was meaningful to her. Throughout the rest of the song, she addresses the man as "Mister Movie Man" and "visionary man," expressing her admiration for his intellect and creative spirit.
Jenson's lyrics convey a sense of yearning and longing, with the repeated refrain of "I can't stop thinking of you" underscoring the depth of her feelings for this stranger. She imagines driving out to see him and settling their connection "once and for all," suggesting a desire for closure or resolution. However, she also acknowledges that she has told him she is "over" him, but asks him to "remind me of why why why we're through," perhaps suggesting some unresolved feelings or a sense of uncertainty about their relationship.
Overall, "Thinking Of You" is a poignant and bittersweet tribute to the ways in which brief encounters and moments of connection can have a lasting impact on our lives.
