Analysis of A

melancholyrh 1996 (Washington)



I’ve been looking for someone like you
For what feels like forever, and
I’m so glad that I found you
Way back
In November, when
I was feeling blue
I was feeling lonely
Didn’t know what I was doing when you say me
That was then
This is now
I just hope this time that
We can work it out
