Ronald Christoph feat. Orlando Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He's doing some deal up in Baltimore now... I hate it, when he's away!
You must be mistaken, I'm sure that you are! There's more than one car with stickers
on. And lots of young guys wear courdrary pants. And I'd know if he hadn't gone!
Take that look off yor face! (Take that look off yor face!) I can see through
your smile! (I can see through your smile!) You would love to be right, I bet, you
didn't sleep good last night, couldn't wait to bring all of these bad news to my
I'f I'm not mistaken, it started last year. I'm not very clear how it began
I noticed a change, but I just closed my eyes as only a woman can.
No, I didn't dig deep. (No, I didn't dig deep.) I did not want to know. (I did
not want to know.) Well, you don't interfere when you're scared of the things, you
might hear. When he's back, you think, I will end it right there and then? Well, my
fair weather friend- you're wrong again!

You must be mistaken! It couldn't have been! You couldn't have seen him yesterday!
You must have seen someone else, as there are multiple cars with stickers and young guys wearing corduroy pants. I know he's away in Baltimore now.
Take that look off your face! (Take that look off your face!) I can see through your smile! (I can see through your smile!) You would love to be right, I bet, you didn't sleep good last night, couldn't wait to bring all of these bad news to my door. Well, I've got news for you: I knew before.
Don't try to act like you're delivering bad news to me when I already know. Your smile gives away your intention to prove me wrong, but you won't succeed.
I'f I'm not mistaken, it started last year. I'm not very clear how it began. I noticed a change, but I just closed my eyes as only a woman can.
There was a change in his behavior that I noticed, but I didn't investigate further since I was scared of what I might find out.
No, I didn't dig deep. (No, I didn't dig deep.) I did not want to know. (I did not want to know.) Well, you don't interfere when you're scared of the things, you might hear. When he's back, you think, I will end it right there and then? Well, my fair weather friend- you're wrong again!
I purposely avoided finding out the truth because I was afraid of what I might learn. And don't think that just because he's back, I'll confront him and end things. You're a fair weather friend and you're wrong to assume that.
