I feel like this song is about thinking you have a connection with someone, when really you don’t, and you need to stop convincing yourself that something is so much deeper than what it really is
ouch, exactly my situation right now and you conveyed it into the words I didn’t even know I had, in a way I didn’t know I felt until I read your words and felt chills. Feels like an absolute inner battle between what my heart wants and what my common sense knows- that he doesn’t love me, and that deep down, I don’t love him in the way you should love a soulmate- because he isn’t mine. He’s the person I want to want, he’s been in his home country for 6 months, and I just miss him, but I’ve always known the connection is just in my head. Or rather, my heart. Thats where I am right now, engrossed in this romantic fantasy we build in our heads where we are loved by this wonderful person and they are loved by us, and the reality- that it was never even real. It really hurts. As Lizzy says in this beautiful song, I am drawn to him. Every time. I hope you’re well friend, your interpretation of the song is just so beautiful and real, and wow what a crazy talented songwriter Lizzy is ✨ x
@@ciarab4835 oh I know what you mean I felt this some years ago and it´s so freeing tell your heart that you deserve better. If he loved you he would have shown you this and otherwise he´s not the right man. But I can still feel how hard it is to stop this beautiful dream.
@@Anna-dl8my thank you so much Anna, you’re so right, I would never want to be in a relationship with someone who didn’t love me back, the way I deserve to be loved. He’s wonderful, and I will always treasure our friendship, always. In the meantime I have to stop myself from dreaming about him, but as you said, ultimately my heart will feel more free when I accept it for what it is. Thanks for your experience friend :) xx
Verse 1] Why am I pulled to you And why does it never feel like I'm finished talking When we're finished talking? Why am I pulled to you And why does it never feel right To not pick up when you're calling? [Pre-Chorus] You know me so well Even if you don't know my favorite type of cereal You know me so well Even though we're both different people now [Chorus] It's stupid, it's so stupid to miss you like this I feel stupid, so stupid to miss you like this 'Cause I told you to go and you went Oh, what did I expect? So it's stupid, it's stupid, I know that it's stupid To love you But I can't help it [Post-Chorus] Mmm, I can't help it I can't help it [Verse 2] How did we get here? It makes no sense, but it feels like A sign from God That I keep ignoring How did we get to this place we're in? It makes no sense, but it feels right And maybe that's God I probably shouldn't ignore him [Pre-Chorus] You know me so well Even if you don't know my favorite type of cereal You know me so well Even if you don't know I don't believe in God anyhow [Chorus] But it's stupid, it's so stupid to miss you like this I feel stupid, so stupid to miss you like this 'Cause I told you to go and you went Oh, what did I expect? So it's stupid, it's stupid, I know that it's stupid To love you But I can't help it
She’s singing my pain. My experience. My situation. It’s a beautiful thing how music can do that... Listening to this song for the first time, it was almost like she was narrating how I’ve been feeling about this boy I can’t seem to let go. But that first lyric haunts me: “Why am I pulled to you?” -because I wish I had an answer Lizzy, damn 😭
I hope you’re doing okay friend, I’m in a similar situation and it’s extremely painful, I wish I had better advice to give you but know that if they don’t love you in the way you love them, even if they’re a lovely person, they’re not right for you. But be his friend, friendship can blossom into love and who knows? A few years down the line, you might be more than friends. Keep hope, but live your life in the meantime. Sending you hugs from someone that understands x
@@ciarab4835 You’re. Going. To. Make. Me. CRY 😭 Thank you Ciara!! I’m doing much better. This song really was what I needed to help me come to terms with what was happening and it also helped me let him go (I finally deleted our messages). So I’m good! Doing much better! Thank you for the advice and for being so sweet. How is your similar situation going? 🥺
@@graceedits3118 I’m really glad to hear that you’re doing better, little by little. Well I’ll find out how it goes next month, when I see him for possibly the last time. He’s going back to his home country, and I’ll just miss him so much. Three years I’ve known this wonderful man, I realised how I felt in June and since then I have only felt more intensely in love every day I spend without him. Over analysed every touch, every time he put his hand on my shoulders, every funny face pulled and silly joke that we both know makes no sense but we laugh at anyway. Grace, he told me I’m a cloud person. I have no idea to this day what that means, but the way he said it, the seriousness in his voice and the kindness written on his face- it was the most beautiful thing anyone has ever said about me. So I will tell you how it goes when I see him next month when we say goodbye, and hopefully I can get some closure. You’re a lovely person for taking an interest, and I promise to let you know how it goes, please feel free to do the same if you need to. Proud of you x
@@ciarab4835 Girlfriend! Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to your beautiful message. I can't even begin to express how much it meant to me as I was reading it. My heart aches for you and your experience with this boy and I hope you're doing alright. Did you ever see him again?
You have an amazing gift for expressing emotions that we’ve all had, both lyrically and musically. Your guitar and voice compliment each other in style perfectly. BTW, what is your favorite cereal?
hey Lizzy, I really don't know if you are gonna read this one day, but I have to say that I just found you and your music and man... this was one of the best things that ever happen to me and to my creativity/writing process. as a writer, your lyrics hit me different. the way you tell the stories; the way you say and sing about the simple things turning it to big and meaningful .. thank you and so much. love from Brazil
You’ve officially made it to my top 5 newly discovered female vocalists/songwriter/musicians. Love your music! Keep at it and never stop creating music!
I just found your CZcams channel and fell in love with your voice. I thought I'd listen to every of your song right now to find a relatable one I could send to the man I love. Guess I just found it, thank you. I don't think I'll have the courage to send him after telling him I'd cut ties but... I can't help it
Her songs are so relatable!! I loved that part "how did we get to this place we're in and it makes no sense but it feels right, and maybe that's god i probably shouldn't ignore him" even though she doesn't believe in god 🥺❤️
I used to say to my bf that sometime I will say that you should go away but you should not and if you do it'll break my heart so to never do lol and this song reminds me of that time cute memories
Having a connection with someone but only you can feel it and it gets deeper and heartbreaking 💔 because you love that person but it's not good for you because it's breaking you from the inside and you just want to let go 😭💔 and be 🆓 *jay*

Yes. That is exactly how I received this song 😭
Verse 1]
Why am I pulled to you
And why does it never feel like
I'm finished talking
When we're finished talking?
Why am I pulled to you
And why does it never feel right
To not pick up when you're calling?
[Pre-Chorus]
You know me so well
Even if you don't know my favorite type of cereal
You know me so well
Even though we're both different people now
[Chorus]
It's stupid, it's so stupid to miss you like this
I feel stupid, so stupid to miss you like this
'Cause I told you to go and you went
Oh, what did I expect?
So it's stupid, it's stupid, I know that it's stupid
To love you
But I can't help it
[Post-Chorus]
Mmm, I can't help it
I can't help it
[Verse 2]
How did we get here?
It makes no sense, but it feels like
A sign from God
That I keep ignoring
How did we get to this place we're in?
It makes no sense, but it feels right
And maybe that's God
I probably shouldn't ignore him
[Pre-Chorus]
You know me so well
Even if you don't know my favorite type of cereal
You know me so well
Even if you don't know I don't believe in God anyhow
[Chorus]
But it's stupid, it's so stupid to miss you like this
I feel stupid, so stupid to miss you like this
'Cause I told you to go and you went
Oh, what did I expect?
So it's stupid, it's stupid, I know that it's stupid
To love you
But I can't help it
OH MY GOD !!! I JUST SEARCHED LIZZY MCALPINE AND I DID NOT EXPECT NEW RELEASES TO COME AT ME !!! AAAAAAAA THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUU
ME TOO OMG
MEEE
