Intro: I bet this time of night you’re still up I bet you’re tired from a long hard week I bet you’re sitting in your chair by the window Looking out at the city A -once And I bet sometimes you wonder about me And I just want to tell you It takes everything in me not to call you And I wish I could run to you And I hope you know that Every time I don’t I almost do I almost dooooo I bet you think I either moved on or hate you ’Cause each time you reach out there’s no reply I bet it never ever occurred to you That I can’t say hello to you And risk another goodbye And I just want to tell you It takes everything in me not to call you And I wish I could run to you And I hope you know that Every time I don’t I almost do I almost doooo -once We made quite a mess babe It’s probably better off this way And I confess babe That in my dreams you’re touching my face And asking me if I want to try again with you And I almost do And I just want to tell you It takes everything in me not to call you And I wish I could run to you And I hope you know that Every time I don’t I almost do I almost doooo I bet this time of night you’re still up I bet you’re tired from a long hard week I bet you’re sitting in your chair by the window Looking out at the city And I hope sometimes you wonder about me

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le dilemme émotionnel d'une personne qui se retient de contacter quelqu'un qu'elle chérissait profondément, tout en étant tiraillée par ses sentiments. Elle imagine l'autre personne, probablement nostalgique, se demander ce qu'elle devient et se rend compte que, malgré le temps qui passe, l'envie de renouer est toujours présente. Il y a cette lutte intérieure, où chaque fois qu'elle hésite à appeler, elle se sent presque prête à le faire, mais la peur d’un nouvel au revoir la paralyse. Dans ce contexte, les paroles expriment un mélange de regret et de désir, celui de réparer une relation brisée tout en étant conscient de la complexité de la situation. La chanteuse semble se souvenir de moments heureux tout en reconnaissant que parfois, il vaut mieux ne pas rouvrir d'anciennes blessures.
