What About Us
Secret Rendezvous Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Instead the bed's getting colder and somehow
I think that you've got something to do with it cause
I miss you more than i would like to admit
Must be tripping
Still got a box here with your pictures, bet you forgot about that
Maybe things could've been different but somehow we lost our love along the way
And you gave up believing we were one
What about us?
Thought i was your only
Why'd you leave me lonely
What about us
Said we'd be forever i swear i had never thought we'd turn to dust
You didn't waste no time
I've seen her checking on you
But can she elevate your mind
Cause if you used your heart and not your eyes
Maybe things could've been different
I'm just laying it on the line
What about us?
Thought i was your only
Why'd you leave me lonely
What about us
Said we'd be forever i swear i had never thought we'd turn to dust
What about us?
I guess one wasn't good enough
What about us?
I guess it's evident
We never stood a chance
If you hadn't taken us for granted we'd still be relevant
I guess it's evident
We never stood a chance
If you hadn't taken us for granted we'd still be relevant
What about us?
Thought i was your only
Why'd you leave me lonely
What about us
Said we'd be forever i swear i had never thought we'd turn to dust
What about us?
I guess one wasn't good enough
What about us?
Oooh, us
The lyrics to Secret Rendezvous's song What About Us reflect the pain of a relationship that has ended. The singer is struggling to come to terms with the fact that their partner has left them and appears to be moving on. The opening lines express the singer's disappointment that the hurt they feel has not subsided, and in fact, seems to have grown worse over time. The singer hints that their former lover may be to blame for this, as they cannot let go of the memories they shared. They have a box of pictures that serves as a constant reminder of their love lost.
The chorus of the song is a plea to the former lover, questioning why they left and asking what happened to the promises made of being together forever. The singer is clearly hurt and confused, and feels as though they were not enough for their lover. This is highlighted in the lines "I guess one wasn't good enough." They also question whether the new person their former lover is with can truly make them happy, and suggest that if their former lover had used their heart instead of their eyes, things could have been different.
Overall, the lyrics to "What About Us" convey a sense of longing and regret, as the singer looks back on what once was and wonders what could have been. It is a heartfelt expression of the pain that comes with the end of a relationship.
Line by Line Meaning
I thought the hurt would be over by now
I believed that my feelings would have healed by now
Instead the bed's getting colder and somehow
But instead of healing, my feelings are getting worse and it feels like something to do with your absence
I think that you've got something to do with it cause
I believe your departure has caused this feeling
I miss you more than i would like to admit
I miss you badly even though it's difficult for me to accept
Must be tripping
I might be going crazy
Still got a box here with your pictures, bet you forgot about that
I still have a box full of your pictures that you might have forgotten
Maybe things could've been different but somehow we lost our love along the way
I believe that our relationship could have turned out differently, but we lost our love somewhere in the journey
And you gave up believing we were one
You lost faith in our relationship becoming one
I'm just saying
I'm just stating the fact
What about us?
What happened to us?
Thought i was your only
I thought I was the only one for you
Why'd you leave me lonely
Why did you make me feel abandoned and all alone?
Said we'd be forever i swear i had never thought we'd turn to dust
When you said we'd be together forever, I never thought we would become strangers
You didn't waste no time
You didn't take any time to move on
I've seen her checking on you
I have seen her interested in you
But can she elevate your mind
But can she improve your intellectual capacity or understanding with her presence?
Cause if you used your heart and not your eyes
If you chose love over physical attraction
Maybe things could've been different
Our relationship could have changed or improved
I'm just laying it on the line
I am just stating the truth without beating around the bush
I guess one wasn't good enough
I assume one partner was not sufficient
I guess it's evident
There's no denying the obvious
We never stood a chance
Our relationship never had a chance of surviving
If you hadn't taken us for granted we'd still be relevant
If you had never taken our relationship for granted, we would still be significant today
Oooh, us
Us
