The song is about the complexity of relationships and wanting someone to stay even though they might have something wrong on the inside. The lyrics discuss the narrator driving around in a car, reflecting on their relationship and all the signs they pass by, but none of them seem to help. They also...
Driving 'round in your car, the thoughts are piled up very, very far
Did you know the time?
Did you happen to read the last three mile marker signs?
A bright flash of light, flashed before my eyes
Along with the centipedes, the birds, and the dragonflies
But did you know I loved you more than I could ever show?
And did you know that something deep inside you that would fail to grow?
And did you see it? There's something inside of me
But did you know the tales of the dragonfly?
Riding 'round in my car, I look up just in time to see I've gone too far
And where were we?
Well, you're not here you're back where you're supposed to be
I miss your hair
I yell unto a passing man but he just stares
He stares at me, well, seeing what he wants to, inside
But did you know I loved you more than I could ever show?
And did you know that something deep inside you that would fail to grow?
And did you see it? There's something inside of me
But did you know the tales of the dragonfly?
You'll come crashing 'round, bleeding me and holding me down
I think I like it
You'll come crashing 'round, bleeding me and holding me down
I think I like it
You'll come crashing 'round
You'll come crashing down
But did you know I loved you more than I could ever show?
And did you know that something deep inside you that would fail to grow?
And did you see it? There's something inside of me
But did you know the tales of the dragon...?
You're my dragonfly!
Dragonfly!
Dragonfly!
