Friends Forever
Thanks For Coming Lyrics

Sunday evening in the springtime
The song sets the stage of time and place. It conveys the beginning of a conversation that was had last year and may be renewed this year.

Just like this time last year
The similarity to last year leads to the repetition of a conversation that has been held before but has not been resolved.

When you change your tone
The interlocutor's tone has shifted, suggesting a different sentiment or emotion.

I wonder if i still belong here
The artist is questioning whether they fit in this situation, and whether they're wanted/needed in this context.

Your smile stings when i'm caught
The interlocutor's smile is perceived as painful or hurtful by the artist.

In between and don't disappear
The singer feels stuck between two options, but they don't want to disappear or be forced out of the conversation.

I know the difference between
The singer is aware of the distinction between two types of emotions.

The things that scare me
The artist acknowledges that there are things that frighten them, but those things are not the same as the ones they fear.

And the things that i fear
The things that the artist fears are bigger and deeper than the ones that scare them.

When will you tell me who i am to you
The artist wants to understand how they are perceived by their interlocutor - what role they play in their life, if any.

Am i anything to anyone
The singer wonders if they have any value to anyone.

Just tell me that you hate my guts
The artist would rather hear an honest opinion, even if it's negative, than silence or insincerity.

Every time i walk away
The singer tries to leave the conversation, but they end up following their interlocutor in their next move.

I walk right into where you're going
The singer follows their interlocutor's path, not theirs.

But when i want to see you
The singer longs for the company of their interlocutor.

You're busy so i wind up smoking
The artist turns to smoking, as they can't see their interlocutor, and their frustration leads to unhealthy behavior.

And when you smoke, i say no, not tonight, not while it's snowing
The artist tries to discourage their interlocutor from smoking, even though they engage in unhealthy behavior themselves.

So we don't talk for months
The conversation ends and the singers don't communicate for a long time.

And then you ask me where the wind is blowing
The conversation may restart with a casual question, as if nothing happened before.

Are we gonna be friends forever
The artist wonders if their relationship will last and if they will remain friends.

You won't say a thing and i won't say anything either
The artist and their interlocutor both remain silent and unresolved.
