I've Been Thinking About You

The speaker looks back on a relationship that may have been called friendship but carried stronger feelings. Now the two are apart, and the speaker misses the other person and feels in love again. The mood shifts from confusion and regret to an urgent, repetitive longing: the speaker cannot stop thinking about them and wonders what to do.

“Stone crazy” is an informal way to say wildly foolish; here, the speaker suggests that pretending to be only friends was a mistake. “Strangers” conveys emotional distance, not necessarily that the pair have literally never met. The phrase “got you on my mind” means the person is occupying the speaker’s thoughts. The account of “one temptation” hints that another person was involved, but the lyrics do not explain exactly what happened or how it affected the relationship.

The speaker sounds certain of being in love, yet remains “confused” about the other person and the situation. The repeated refrain conveys fixation, but it does not tell us whether the feelings are returned or whether reconciliation is possible. The song can be heard as a confession of regret and desire, while leaving the relationship’s history and outcome open.
