oh also "i'll be anything you ask and more" - she'll be everything you could and more "you're going hey hey hey hey hey hey" - she's saying wait don't go "its not a miracle we needed no i wouldn't let you think so" - he's saying we didn't need a miracle it just wasn't meant to work |

I think the song is about a guy and a girl who are on the rocks. "counting all different ideas drifting away." - they are trying to figure out what to do. "past and present don't matter now the future's sorted out" - they have come to a conclusion finally "watch her moving in elliptical patterns think its not what you say what you say is way too complicated" - she's talking in circles because she isn't sure. He thinks its not what she says because what she says isn't making sense its what she feels "for a minute thought i couldn't tell how to fall out" - for a bit he didn't think he would remember how to live without her. "its twenty seconds til the last call" - he's fed up he wants an answer. he's done playing games "you're going hey hey hey hey hey hey" - she's asking him to wait and not leave "lie down you know its easy" - give up its easier "like we did it over summer long" - maybe their relationship was kinding fading "fold it fold it fold it fold it" - give up throw your cards its done. "girlfriend, oh your girlfriend is drifitng away" - she's leaving "past and present 1855-1901" - the time it took to build the Eiffel tower "Watch them build up a material tower" - it has no meaning except to impress (as material items do) "think its not gonna stay anyway think its overrated" - they think the tower was just to show off for the world fair and that its just an overrated eye sore possibly like his failed relationship well anyway thats what i got from the lyrics hope this helped anyone who wasn't sure |
