Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'll be comin' home, but I don't know when
Oh, I was out of line and you're too smart to see
What's been going on, c'est la vie, whatcha looking at, me?
He's putting on his favorite dress
She's playing with her new set
Yeah, you and me, we never cared for all the rest
You know I like it, but you're never enough
I think you might just be the one
I know despite that, you've been having it rough
I think you might just be the one
So let go, this is only the beginning
I know you wanna be adored
So let go, let me show you, I wanna be yours
I was raised on a plastic spoon
When you came out the blue
What were you wearing when we first met? I forget
So how am I supposed to prove (I know you want it)
That I'm the one for you? (So you can get some)
I'm not like your other lovers, I'm something new
He's puttin' on his favorite dress
She's playin' with her new set
So why did I fall asleep?
I heard the baby ringing like a phone
Standing like a stone, somebody's home
You know I like it, but you're never enough
I think you might just be the one
I know despite that, you've been having it rough
I think you might just be the one
So let go, this is only the beginning
I know you wanna be adored
So let go, let me show you, I wanna be yours

I heard the infant crying loudly
Standing like a stone, somebody's home
I was motionless, someone else is present
