Taxi
Suzanna Lubrano Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’m leaving… Taxi
‘Cause you don’t care about us… Taxi

Taxi in front of the door, waiting to bring me to the station
The train leaves at 6
You had enough time to change my mind
And convince me
You had enough time to change my mind

And convince me to stay
(4x chorus)
Now I’m telling you
Now I’m telling you bye

You had enough time to change my mind
And convince me
You had enough time to change my mind
And convince me to stay

Now I’m telling you bye
I’m leaving ‘cause you don’t care
(3x chorus) Now I’m telling you bye

You don’t need to look for me anymore
You had enough time to convince me to stay

(4x) Taxi in front of the door

(2x) You made time for everyone instead of me
Your priority went to everybody, but not me
My heart… I’m sorry
I didn’t understand all the signs you gave me

Now I’m telling you
Now I’m telling you bye

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Suzanna Lubrano's song "Taxi" take the form of a conversation between two people, with the singer indicating she is ready to leave, and has done so because the other party involved did not care for their relationship as she had hoped they would. The chorus repeats the words "I'm leaving... Taxi / 'Cause you don't care about us... Taxi", emphasizing her decision to end the relationship despite any efforts that may have been made earlier to convince her otherwise.

The verses of the song describe the singer's imminent departure as she waits for a taxi outside, with the train leaving soon after. She notes that the other person had ample time to change her mind and convince her to stay, but failed to do so, thereby leading her to her current decision. The bridge of the song suggests that the singer is aware that the other party involved may try to change her mind later and find her, but she is determined to stick to her decision to leave.

Overall, the lyrics of "Taxi" portray a sense of finality and closure, with the singer seemingly resigned to moving on from a relationship that had failed to meet her expectations.
