Intro verse 1 You’re not wanting anybody wanting in you I get it all is fair But I’ve been biting all my cherry hearts in two And you don’t even care Pre-Chorus Won’t you ever come down from the big rock I found you climbing Stowing your diamonds away You kissed me once When we were drunk It left me spinning on my heels Call the devil for a deal You kissed me once When we were drunk My head went rolling along the floor Past the window out the door Break verse 3 Once I said it I knew I would regret it too It’s just too much to share Now you’re fading sailing in the night For the boy who wasn’t there Pre-Chorus I’m a practical guy But sometimes I can fly off the handle Thinking in scandalous ways I’ve never done time But I’ve done the crime of wanting Something that never could stay Chorus You kissed me once When we were drunk It left me spinning on my heels Call the devil for a deal You kissed me once When we were drunk And now I’m nervous when we meet I’ve got nothing under my feet You kissed me once When we were drunk It left me spinning on my heels Call the devil for a deal You kissed me once When we were drunk My head went rolling along the floor Past the window out the door Outro

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un sentiment de désir non réciproque et de nostalgie. Le narrateur semble vivre une attraction intense pour quelqu'un qui reste distant, tout en rappelant une rencontre passionnée mais éphémère. Il révèle comment cette expérience a bouleversé ses émotions, le laissant dans un état de confusion et d'incertitude. Alors qu’il tente de gérer ses sentiments, il prend conscience des regrets qui accompagnent ses choix. Dans ce contexte, on ressent une tension entre l'envie d'aimer et la réalité des relations humaines, marquées par des moments fugaces et des intentions pas toujours partagées. Les thèmes de l'ivresse, des blessures émotionnelles et des rêves impossibles soulignent une quête de connexion véritable qui échappe souvent aux protagonistes.
