Best song on the album!! This is truly one of my favorite songs by John Mayer..It is simply one of those that makes me feel completely different by hearing it. Lyrically beautiful. I love songs that have you trying to decipher their meanings. This is how I interpret the song...which might be completely wrong, but its what I feel when I hear it.
"Just a great figure 8 or tiny infinity"
-I think he might mean figure 8 in relation to a woman's body..He might mean "is this just another girl or a love that could be never ending"..HOWEVER, i really like zach90's interpretation of the line..his seems more logical.
"Don't say a word just come over, and lie here with me"
-That line gets me every time it comes out in the song!!..Describes perfectly how one feels when they really miss someone..It's simple..nothing to try to comprehend..very straightforward.
"I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe. There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me"
-He probably means nothing matters to him. He unconditionally loves this person. He'll throw away everything he has ever believed in to desperately have her. He is scared that she will forget about him so he will do anything to have her.
"Maybe this mattress will spin on it's axis and find me on yours"
-He is hoping that he will just magically end up in the same bed with her. He longs to be with her.
This song is full of emotion and very relatable to alot of people. I think he really nailed it with this one! I'm sure it will sound AMAZING live!!
