Overall Meaning

At first glance, the lyrics to Parker House and Theory's song "Love Pt. 2" seem like nonsensical repetition of "come on" and "what." However, if you listen to the song in its entirety, it becomes clear that these repeated lines are actually building up to a big reveal. The final line, "Did you really think that it was over?" is like a punchline that ties everything together.

The repetition of "come on" and "what" in the earlier lines can be interpreted as a sort of call-and-response between the singer and the listener. The singer is urging the listener to pay attention, to keep listening, to not give up on the song even though it might seem repetitive or confusing at first. And then, at the end, the singer delivers the knockout blow: everything that came before was just a warm-up for this final moment. The word "it" in the last line is intentionally vague, leaving the meaning up to interpretation. Is the singer referring to a relationship that seemed over but has been rekindled? Is it a metaphor for life itself, an encouragement to not give up on your dreams or your passions?

Line by Line Meaning

Come on, come on
Let's keep moving forward and not give up

What, what?
Expressing confusion or disbelief

Did you really think that it was over?
Do not underestimate the persistence of love and don't assume it's gone
