Yo, I ain't seen you in a minute
But I got something to tell you
Listen
See, the thing about you that caught my eye
Is the same thing that makes me change my mind
Kind of hard to explain, but girl, I'll try
You need to sit down, this may take a while
See this girl, she sort of looks just like you
She even smiles just the way you do
So innocent she seemed, but I was fooled
I'm reminded when I look at you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
Thought that she was the one for me
'Til I found out she was on her creep
Ooh, she was sexing everyone, but me
This is why we could never be
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
I know it's so unfair to you (it's so unfair)
That I relate her ignorance to you
Wish I knew
Wish I knew how to separate the two
You remind me (you remind me)
Whoa, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you (gotta let you go)
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through (all the sh*t she put me through)
This is why I just can't get with you, no no
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
Wouldn't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you

This song is about a guy who's had his heart broke, and is ready to move on, likes this girl but what he likes about her is the same thing that reminds him of the girl that broke his heart, hence his hesitation...

This is what I can gather from this song.
The Story: Mr. Guy (as we will call him) walks into a bar/club and sees a hot girl (Miss Chick as she will be called). Miss Chick has (just for humour sake) green eyes and brown hair. Despite the fact that Mr. Guy always gets the girls, Miss Chick doesn't seem to have much interest in him. Well she does, but only in a user way. Anyways Mr. Guy is quite p-oed because Miss Chick has been getting overly friendly with every other guy on earth, but him. And quite frankly I'd be p-oed if someone treated me this way as well.
Flash forward to sometime in the near, or not so near future. Mr. Guy sees another girl (who we'll call Miss Lady) with green eyes and brown hair, just as Miss Chick had. Miss Lady and Mr. Guy seem genuinely fond of each other. The problem everytime Mr. Guy sees Miss Lady, he is reminded of Miss Chick who had treated him so poorly. So Mr. Guy tells Miss Lady that they can never be together.
The Moral of The Story: First Mr. Guy has some kind of insecurity issue. Although he loves Miss Lady, he still thinks of how bad Miss Chick treated him. Mr. Guy GET OVER IT! As a women if I were to ignore any man who reminded me of all the asses I've met (and there are a few), well let's just say I'd be a Lesbian. In fact if every women thought this way as Mr. Guy did, well the earth would now be populated only by test tubes. Second it shows that Mr. Guy is quite shallow, he can't seem to focus on what a great person Miss Lady is. The only thing he can think of is "she has green eyes and brown hair as that slu*t that used me did." And maybe it's me, but I find this attitude Mr. Guy has, just as horrible and ignorant as Miss Chick did.

This is a bit difficult to explain. He falls for this girl and then she treats him badly. She uses him and cheats on him. A ways down the road, she comes crawling back and she's changed. He realizes that she's changed and is a whole different person now, but she reminds him too much of the girl she used to be. He can't forget the way she hurt him.

yeah , you know, it could be what fairyinblackandwhite is trying to say, it would make sense, very poetic literaturish if you know what i mean,but i think i'll have to go with the whole'you remind me of a girl i onced liked but got hurt' scenario, and so he's hesitating , but cant ignore the fact he's attracted to the current girl.

The Night We Met Lord Huron This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:"I had all and then most of you"Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart"Some and now none of you"Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why" Cajun Girl Little Feat Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you” Mountain Song Jane's Addiction Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it.""There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets." When We Were Young Blink-182 This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly. Page Ed Sheeran There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.Rate These Lyrics
