Decorate
Yuna Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So you decided to see me out of the blue
Should I let you come over?
I think you're doing fine
That girl in your arms does she know where you come from?

Almost made me move out of town
You don't want me to be around
But I stayed anyway
Just in case

Finding reasons to hate you more than before
Like how you said you would call
But never at all
Got rid of your number that I know by heart

You left your things at my place
As if I have all the space
Cause you know I don't mind
Just come back when you think it's time

I'm all black and white inside
Monotonous from left to right
I decorate my house with things you love
Just in case you show up

So you decided to see me out of the blue
Should I let you come over?
You do this all the time
You come and you go like I'm nothing, you know?

Every time you come back to me
I'm prepared to watch you leave
You can't make your mind up about me

I imagine what it's like
What if you might leave everything and come home?
But I know that you won't
After what I've been through
I still worry about you

You're acting more like your friends
It's definitely the end
But you know I don't mind
Just come back when you think it's time

I'm all black and white inside
Monotonous from left to right
I decorate my house with things you love
Just in case you show up
Just in case you show up

I'm all black and white inside
Monotonous from left to right
I decorate my house with things you love
Just in case you show up




In case you show up
In case you show up

The singer, who is represented by Yuna, expresses her conflicting feelings about her ex, who keeps coming back into her life unexpectedly.

2020 and will always listen it endlessly 😍

alyn gaming

same here bro.😌

Nohugs_ugh

It's ironic that I keep coming back to this song whenever I need to calm down. It's now 2020 & I thought I'd have moved on from this habit... Despite the sad lyrics, this song feels naive, innocent almost & raw in a good way. It's bittersweet. It feels childishly hopeful at the same time. It's young. But despite all that, it's warm & I keep coming back.

just inLake

Same. Damnn i can feel you😢

remitro

damn

Christa Kwon

Lol, and 2 boyfriends later - this song doesn't hurt like it used to. Never let someone treat you like this. Don't be a "just in case you show up girl".

Icarus Love'Bugg

I forgot about this song. And finding it again today brought tears to my eyes.

xTrueLaughter
