Ja ciebie zawsze znałam i ty mnie też
a teraz mało znam cię i tyle lat tak już jest

Lubię o tobie mówić ludziom bo wiem,

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to soniamiki's song "Kate" reflect the sentiment of the singer towards an old friend or possibly a former lover. The opening lines, "Ja ciebie zawsze znałam i ty mnie też / a teraz mało znam cię i tyle lat tak już jest / tak już jest" ("I always knew you and you knew me / but now I barely know you, that's just how it is / it's just how it is"), suggest that there has been a significant amount of time that has passed in between their relationship, causing a disconnect between them. However, the singer still enjoys talking about this person to others because it allows her to feel closer to them and maintain a connection, "Lubię o tobie mówić ludziom bo wiem, że to pozwala mi cię znać jeszcze dzień jeden dzień" ("I like to talk about you to people because I know that it allows me to know you for one more day").

The next verse explores the dynamic of their relationship further, with the line "Ty mnie uczyłaś wiele z tego co wiem / Akiedy bałaś się mówiłam że nie będzie żle / wtedy nie" ("You taught me a lot of what I know / When you were scared, I told you it wouldn't be bad / and it wasn't"), indicating that the two were close and relied on each other for support. The chorus then repeats the singer's promise to try her best to not dwell on the fact that they are no longer as close as they once were, "I obiecuję tobie, że będę chcieć / mocno nie mysleć o tym, że nie ma cię tak juz jest / tak już jest" ("And I promise you that I will want / Strongly not to think about the fact that you're gone, that's just how it is").
