You Lookin' at Me
Ozzy Osbourne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing done and nothing said
Talking to me with your eyes
What they say is no surprise
Things are so much different now
But nothing lasts forever
I wanna talk to you
You, looking at me, looking at you
Carry on from day to day
Even when we touch it seems miles away
I know you know I know too
Is it me or is it you?
Things are so much different now
But nothing lasts forever
You, looking at me, looking at you
I wanna talk to you
You, looking at me, looking at you
I had a dream that we were through
I can't imagine nights without you, yeah
Looks and fixes can we repair
Talking good and we just stare
Waste of love is waste of life
Save our love from the final knife
Things would be so different then
Our love would last forever
You, looking at me, looking at you
I wanna talk to you
You, looking at me, looking at you
You, looking at me, looking at you
I wanna talk to you
You, looking at me, looking at you
You, looking at me, looking at you
I wanna talk to you
You, looking at me, looking at you
The lyrics to Ozzy Osbourne's song "You Lookin' at Me" offer a portrait of a couple who are struggling to connect with one another. The lyrics present the idea that communication between the couple is passive, with much of it happening through non-verbal communication, such as eye contact. The singer in the song seems to be questioning whether the two of them are on the same page at all, or if they are just going through the motions of a relationship that is no longer fulfilling.
The song begins with the lines "Pictures building in my head, Nothing done and nothing said." These lines suggest that the singer is caught up in thoughts and concerns about their relationship, even though nothing concrete has happened yet. The next two lines, "Talking to me with your eyes, What they say is no surprise," convey the idea that the singer feels like they are getting mixed signals from their partner, and that what their partner is communicating through their eyes is not always in line with what they are saying verbally.
As the song progresses, the singer's frustration with the situation becomes more evident. They say "Even when we touch it seems miles away" indicating that the couple's physical intimacy is not enough to bridge the gap between them. Additionally, the line "I had a dream that we were through, I can't imagine nights without you, yeah" suggests that despite their frustrations, the singer still values their relationship.
Overall, "You Lookin' at Me" presents a picture of a couple who are struggling to communicate and connect, but who still care for one another. The lyrics suggest that without an effort to communicate and work through their issues, their relationship may not last.
Line by Line Meaning
Pictures building in my head
I am constantly visualizing things in my mind
Nothing done and nothing said
We are not communicating effectively
Talking to me with your eyes
You are expressing yourself through eye contact
What they say is no surprise
I can understand the message you are conveying with your eyes
Things are so much different now
Our current situation is not the same as it used to be
But nothing lasts forever
Change is inevitable and things do not stay the same forever
You, looking at me, looking at you
We are exchanging a gaze
I wanna talk to you
I want to have an open and honest conversation with you
Carry on from day to day
We are continuing to live our lives without any drastic changes
Even when we touch it seems miles away
Despite physical closeness, we both feel emotionally distant
I know you know I know too
We are both aware of the issues in our relationship
Is it me or is it you?
We're uncertain who's responsible for the disconnect in our relationship
I had a dream that we were through
I dreamed that our relationship ended
I can't imagine nights without you, yeah
I cannot fathom the idea of not being with you
Looks and fixes can we repair
We can work on improving our physical appearances in order to feel better about ourselves
Talking good and we just stare
We talk about our problems but never find a solution
Waste of love is waste of life
If we do not fix our relationship issues, it is a waste of our precious lives
Save our love from the final knife
We need to work together to save our love before it completely falls apart
Things would be so different then
If we repair our relationship, it would be vastly improved
Our love would last forever
Our love has the potential to last a lifetime if we put the work in
