In this song, Rob describes being in a relationship with someone, he is not that into but not having the confidence to just end it.
I should spend the time
And I should really bother
But it seems way less effort just to lead you on
Then say it to your face and sack it off
Lover, lover, lover
Here's the deal
You like me
More than I like you and ever will
Lover, lover, lover
Here's the thing
I like you liking me
Like you liking me
Like you liking me
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
Keep quiet
Say "I want to take things slow"
Keep quiet
Just to fob you off some more
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
I should really try
But I don't want the power
And I don't have the confidence to have that chat
I'd rather wait it out, avoid a scrap
Lover, lover, lover
You like me
More than I like you and ever will
Lover, lover, lover
Lover, lover
You like, I like
You like, I like you liking me
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
Keep quiet
Say "I want to take things slow"
Keep quiet
Just to fob you off some more
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
You like, I like
You like, I like you liking me
You like, I like
You like, I like you liking me
You like, I like
You like, I like you liking me
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
It's a deal
It's a deal
It's a deal
I won't bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up
Keep quiet
Say "I want to take things slow"
Keep quiet
Just to fob you off some more
You just fill the time
Lover, lover, lover
You just fill the time
Lover, lover, lover
