Tekst piosenki
[Intro]
When did you find the time? When did you find the space?
To fall in love with someone else, it’s such a bitter taste
Too cold to stand, I need a hand in crawling out your grave
So I can get up and start living
[Verse 1]
We always said we’d be a mess, we’d never work together
And it’s for the best, I’m off your chest, she’s sleeping in your sweater
But I can’t pretend I’m not offended by the way you let her
[Pre-Chorus]
Into your heart like I wasn’t there
And you’re still in mine, no, it isn’t fair
[Chorus]
When did you find the time? When did you find the space?
To fall in love with someone else, it’s such a bitter taste
Too cold to stand, I need a hand in crawling out your grave
So I can get up and start living
I don’t even know what I’m missing
Too busy missing you
(Too busy missing you)
[Verse 2]
I’ll call your bluff and find someone who’ll get me going steady
And it’s bound to cut, you’ll hate his guts, and say I’m being petty
For falling in love in spite of us, but you would never let me
[Pre-Chorus]
Into your heart, no, you never did
You’re still in mine, tell me how’s that fair?
I hate to admit that I still care
[Chorus]
When did you find the time? When did you find the space?
To fall in love with someone else, it’s such a bitter taste
Too cold to stand, I need a hand in crawling out your grave
So I can get up and start living, mm (Mm)
When did you find the time? When did you find the space?
To fall in love with someone else, it’s such a bitter taste
Too cold to stand, I need a hand in crawling out your grave
So I can get up and start living
I don’t even know what I’m missing
Too busy missing you
[Bridge]
Too busy missing you
Too busy missing you
(Too busy missing you) Mm
[Outro]
One day I’ll find the time, one day I’ll find the space
To fall in love with someone else, you’ll have that bitter taste
Too cold to stand, you’ll need a hand in crawling out my grave
’Cause I won’t be there, I’ll be living
And maybe you’ll know what you’re missing
Tłumaczenie piosenki
Analiza piosenki
Przez całą piosenkę narrator balansuje między tęsknotą, urazą i powolnym budzeniem się do życia, a outro przynosi coś w rodzaju cichej zemsty przez szczęście, bo narrator zapowiada że w końcu sam też kogoś znajdzie i wtedy role się odwrócą. Nie ma tu melodramatu, jest za to bardzo prawdziwe i rozpoznawalne uczucie kogoś kto jest zbyt zajęty tęsknieniem żeby zacząć żyć, ale już widzi że kiedyś to się skończy.
