The Same Love
The Jets Lyrics

You and me
The singer is addressing an ex and questioning what went wrong in their past relationship

We had a love that was forever
The singer believed their love would last forever

That's what I thought and I can still remember
The memory of believing in their forever love is still vivid

Words you said
The singer is referring to promises their ex made during the relationship

You said we'd always be together
The ex promised that they would always be together

Then why am I alone tonight
The singer is questioning why they are alone if the promise was true

Somethin' change and I just don't feel the same
The singer acknowledges that something has changed in their feelings

I'll never understand
The singer is resigned to the fact that they may never understand why the relationship ended

How could the same love
The singer is questioning how the love that once made them happy now makes them sad

That made me so happy
The love brought happiness to the singer in the past

Make me so sad
Now the same love is the source of sadness for the singer

I don't understand
The singer is confused about how the same love can have two drastically different effects on their emotions

How could the same eyes
The singer is also questioning how the same eyes that once conveyed happiness can now express sadness

That used to be laughin'
The eyes that used to reflect joy are now conveying sorrow

Cry in the night
The singer is describing the tears shed by their ex

It doesn't seem right at all, oh
The singer is bewildered and can't make sense of the dramatic shift in emotions

Remembering the nights we held unto each other
The singer is reminiscing about the happy moments in the relationship

The nights you told me
The singer is remembering their ex making promises of fidelity and love

You'd never love another
The ex promised to never love another besides the singer

Remembering that I was all you ever needed
The singer recalls feeling that they were enough for their partner

Where are you when I need you now?
The singer is yearning for their ex's companionship in their time of need

Summer days have left me standing in the rain
The singer is expressing the feeling of being left out in the cold or abandoned by their ex

Somebody tell me how…
The singer is asking for help, advice or understanding from someone else

Was my heart so blind, I couldn't see?
The singer is wondering if they were too naive or ignorant to see the warning signs that their relationship was going downhill

Was I a fool to believe?
The singer is questioning the wisdom of having faith in their ex's promises

Promises you made to me
The singer is directly referencing the assurances their ex provided during the course of their relationship

What went wrong, oh, oh
The singer is venting their frustration about the breakup and trying to figure out where the relationship went wrong

It doesn't seem right at all, oh
The singer is reiterating their overall disbelief and confusion about the situation
