Summary of the lyrics: 

The song begins with Katie expressing her frustration with the person she is interested in, who appears to be pursuing other romantic interests. Katie then professes their willingness to commit to the person and not let the opportunity for a relationship go to waste.

The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I can't stop thinkin' 'bout you", emphasizing Katie's strong feelings for the person she is addressing. She acknowledges that she is usually good at keeping her feelings a secret, but her desire for the person is too strong to ignore. Katie hopes that once she expresses her feelings to the person, the person will reciprocate those feelings.

​

Based on my analysis of the lyrics, Katie is struggling with unrequited love and the toll it is taking on their mental well-being. Despite being unable to stop thinking about the person she desires, she is aware that it may not be a healthy situation for her feelings if they are not reciprocated. However, the lyrics do not indicate whether Katie is ready to move on from this love. Using this song as inspiration, I plan to create an album that focuses on self-love and acceptance in the context of overcoming past relationships. The album will showcase the journey of my own artist who has gone through heartbreak and comes out stronger after. Each track in the album will illustrate a different stage in this process of self-discovery and growth.
