这首歌讲述了女主角与某位男子之间的感情纠葛。在夏末的一次相遇中,两人似乎有了短暂的美好时光,女主角甚至回忆起她16岁时两人的甜蜜承诺。然而,随着时间的发展,这段关系变得不再美好。男子并没有给予女主角足够的重视,总是找各种借口来逃避责任。
在副歌部分,女主角表示现在局势发生了逆转,男子开始表现出对她的嫉妒和渴望,但是她已经不再关心这些。她意识到自己的价值远超过金钱,而男子当初没有珍惜这段关系,现在后悔也来不及了。
通过歌词可以看出,女主角从这段失败的关系中学到了自尊自爱,并且变得更加坚强。她不再需要男子的关注,而是自信地展示自己的魅力,享受自由的生活。
It was end of the summer
When we crossed paths
The DJ was spinning 'til the last dance
I showed you a kiss like they do in France
这段歌词描述了两人初次相遇的情景,在一个夏末的派对上,两人度过了愉快的一晚。
You treated me like coach
When I raised the glass
Remember when I first turned 16
Said you were gonna lay me in the city of dreams
男子当时对女主角的态度让她感到被重视,甚至承诺会带她去梦想之城,但这一切都只是空话。
But you were never man enough
That's how it seems
You just held me down
Made it harder to breathe
随着关系的发展,男子并没有展现出应有的责任感,反而让女主角感到束缚和压抑。
Your excuses just got better
You couldn't give me time
Always got some distraction
More important on your mind
男子总是找各种借口来逃避责任,无法给予女主角足够的时间和关注。
Strikes me kind of funny
The way the tables turned
'Cause now it's you who's sweating
And it's me who's not concerned
局势逆转后,男子开始表现出对女主角的渴望,但她已经不再关心这些。
Looking how I'm doing baby
Just drop like ahh when I'm moving
Looking at me baby they want me so bad
Got front seat
And just flaunt it
女主角自信地展示自己的魅力,享受自由的生活,不再需要男子的关注。
