maybe i'm afraid

Dancing in your party dress
Describing a memory of seeing someone dance gracefully at a party.

You were singing me some Frank Sinatra as you wept
Reflecting on another memory of someone singing and crying at the same time.

Pull me close enough
Expressing a desire for physical intimacy with someone.

It seems like we lost touch so hold me as the record skips
Feeling disconnected from someone but wanting to be close again, using a metaphor of a skipping record.

Maybe I'm just too good
Doubting one's own abilities and thinking they might be too skilled at something.

Maybe I'll run away
Considering the possibility of escaping from a situation that is causing anxiety or distress.

Maybe I'm over you
Questioning whether or not one has moved on from a past relationship.

Maybe I shouldn't stay
Wondering if it's best to leave a situation or relationship.

Maybe I just don't care
Feeling uncertain about whether or not one truly cares about something or someone.

Maybe I talk too much

But baby I'll be there

It's been a little hard
Acknowledging that things have been a bit rough lately.

I've been a little tough
Recognizing that one has been behaving or dealing with things in a tough or unyielding way.

But maybe all along
Suggesting that a realization or understanding has been reached after some time has passed.

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

Champagne for dinner
Describing a moment of indulgence and decadence.

I'm swaying from side to side
Giving a physical description of how one is moving or feeling.

Too much to think tonight
Feeling overwhelmed or overstimulated mentally and emotionally.

She said 'I hope that we're worth saving, Sometimes you will hate me, but that's alright'
Recalling words spoken to the singer, that express hope in the relationship despite the challenges, and a willingness to work through difficulties.

Maybe all we are is fools with hearts that tried too hard
Suggesting that perhaps one is foolish for trying too hard to make something work or succeed.

And maybe that's just fine as long as you're here in my arms
Indicating that being physically close to someone can make everything else worthwhile.
