Talkin' Bout
R. Berry Lyrics

Tell me what can I do? I sit here wondering if the things you say are true
Expressing a feeling of helplessness and uncertainty, questioning the validity of the other person's statements

But, oh, so many times, I believed in something that just melted into lies
Reflecting on past experiences of deceit and questioning the possibility of current honesty

But, oh, is it just a dream or is it so
Expressing doubt and questioning the reality of the situation

You're pretending not to see, you're pretending not to see
Accusing the other person of intentionally ignoring the situation or problem at hand

I'm talking 'bout you, I'm talking 'bout me
Emphasizing the two-sided nature of the issue and implicating both parties in the discussion

And everything that we could do, and everything that we could be
Highlighting the potential for growth and improvement in the situation if both parties work together

Tell me why you don't show
Asking the other person to reveal their true feelings and intentions

When I look into your eyes the both of us should know
Asserting that there should be mutual recognition and understanding between the two parties

But I, I just don't know, am I right in holding on or should I just let go?
Expressing personal confusion and uncertainty about what to do in the current situation

Oh, I'm talking 'bout you, oh, I'm talking 'bout me
Reiterating the dual perspective and shared responsibility for the issue

And everything that we could do, and everything that we could be, yeah
Reaffirming the potential for growth and improvement if both parties are willing to work towards a solution
