I’ll miss you singing Stevie Wonder
Isn’t she lovely till 3 a.m.
When you’d always look into my eyes
I never wanna say goodbye
Sitting and waiting for it to happen again
But for every time I saw you block my call
I wish I’d never been with you at all
You got your sold-out shows, your perfect hair
But when it comes to me, baby, did you ever care?
I’ve never met nobody who talks about themselves so strong
So strong
You got your big red car, your fancy clothes
How I ever fell for you, I’ll never really know
Two months never felt so long
Long, so long
I’ll miss the trips to New York City
Listening to you from back stage
After all these hours pass me by
You just need some time with the guys, what about me?
Every time you say I waste your time
I wish you and I could go and press rewind
You got your sold-out shows, your perfect hair
But when it comes to me, baby, did you ever care?
I’ve never met nobody who talks about themselves so strong
So strong
You got your big red car, your fancy clothes
How I ever fell for you, I’ll never really know
Two months never felt so long
Long, so long
You got your big red car, your fancy clothes
How I ever felt for you, I’ll never really know
Two months never felt so long
Reflecting on a Fleeting Romance
“Two Months” by Charlie Puth delves into the bittersweet aftermath of a short-lived relationship. The lyrics bring to life the longing and confusion that follow an intense but brief romantic connection. Through vivid memories—like late-night Stevie Wonder singalongs and backstage moments in New York—the protagonist reminisces about intimacy and shared experiences. Yet, these tender recollections are contrasted by feelings of neglect and emotional distance, as highlighted by references to missed calls and unreciprocated affection.
Material Success vs. Emotional Fulfillment
Puth cleverly contrasts the subject’s glamorous lifestyle—sold-out shows, luxury cars, and fashionable clothes—with the emotional void left in their wake. The repeated question of whether the other person ever truly cared underscores a sense of unfulfilled love. The chorus emphasizes how a mere two months can feel endlessly long when heartache is involved, capturing the disorienting nature of moving on from a relationship that ended too soon.
