And I know she meant it very very seriously
But I just can't get her off my mind
And I know I should just forget about her and
Go find somebody that I understand
But being with her just feels so right
And she was there when I was right
She don't miss me, but I'm still hoping
She wants to see me tomorrow night
I call her on the phone
'I wrote you another song
I hope you like it but
I know it won't make sense to you'
I know that I'm long gone
From your life but I want
To see you one last time,
Just to recall when you were mine
So forgive me, if you don't wanna be with me
It's a mystery, how you exist so wonderfully
I get tongue-tied, just thinking of you
But I know, I should just be leaving you alone
I'm a sad sight, just waiting for the phone
But I don't know what else to do
And you were there when I was broken
And you helped me see the light
But I left my love unspoken
And that's why
I'm calling you on the phone
I wrote you another song
I hope you like it but
I know it won't make sense to you
I know that I'm long gone
From your life but I want
To see you one last time
Just to recall when you were mine
I know that I'm long gone
From your life but I want
To see you one last time
Just to recall when you were mine

The first verse sets the tone, with the singer acknowledging that the woman he desires has made it clear that she does not want to be with him. However, despite this knowledge, he cannot stop thinking about her and cannot ignore the feeling that being with her is right.
The second verse continues the theme of longing and indecision. The singer reflects on the past, noting that the woman was there for him when he was at his lowest, but he never expressed his true feelings for her. The chorus of the song is a plea for a chance to see her one last time and to express his emotions through music.

She said she could never wanna be with me
The woman told me that she would never want to be in a relationship with me
And I know she meant it very very seriously
I am aware that she was sincere in her statement
But I just can't get her off my mind
Despite this, I am unable to stop thinking about her
And I know I should just forget about her and
Although I understand that I should move on and forget about her
Go find somebody that I understand
I should try to find someone with whom I am more compatible
But being with her just feels so right
Even so, being with her feels like the right thing to do
And she was there when I was broken
She was there to support me when I was at my lowest
And she was there when I was right
She was there when I was at my best
She don't miss me, but I'm still hoping

To reminisce about the time when we were together
So forgive me, if you don't wanna be with me
If she does not want to be with me, I ask for her forgiveness

I struggle to express myself when I think about her
But I know, I should just be leaving you alone
I am aware that I should respect her wishes and leave her be
I'm a sad sight, just waiting for the phone
I am aware of how pathetic I must appear as I wait for her call

And you helped me see the light
In the past, she was instrumental in helping me overcome a difficult situation
But I left my love unspoken
However, I regret not having expressed my love for her
