[Intro]
(Two, one, two, three, beginning)
[Verse 1]
Who, who do you think you're talkin' to?
Is it the man that was here before me?
The one who wrecked your heart and walked?
'Cause if it is, then I'll let you talk
It's clear that's something you're still working through
But who, who do you think you're talkin' to?
[Verse 2]
Where, where do you think you are right now?
Is there a reason you're still digging up the past?
Because you haven't touched your drink
And you haven't stopped to think
If I hold you back from anyone that cares for you
But who, who do you think you're talkin' to?
[Chorus]
What do you want me to say to this?
Frankly, I think we would be remiss
If we don't remind ourselves to share the painful memories too
So baby, tell me who
[Bridge]
Do you need to be alone?
Can you find your own ride home?
And is that still a house that you can't bear to leave?
Does his coat hang in the hall?
Are his pictures on the wall?
And is there one of us you're tryin' to deceive?
[Verse 3]
Oh, babe, the trains will all stop running soon
I don't know how long it's been since you walked away
And after all I've said so far
The tender of this bar
Says, "The only people left here, man, are me and you
So buddy, who, who do you think you're talkin' to?"
[Chorus]
What do you want me to say to this?
Frankly, I think we would be remiss
If we don't remind ourselves to share the painful memories too
So baby, tell me who
[Outro]
Who do you think you're talkin' to?
Who do you think you're talkin' to?
Who do you think you're talkin' to?
Who do you think you're talkin' to?
Who do you think you're talkin' to?
Who do you think you're talkin' to?
Who do you think you're talkin' to?
Who do you think you're talkin' to?

‘Who Do You Think You’re Talking To?’ is about the way we bring our baggage with us as we move away from traumatic experiences and relationships. And the irony of sometimes our newer partners needing to be part of the processing more so than the folks who caused the trouble in the first place.
