Lyrics question

Is Norah Jones singing 'I don't know why I didn't come' or 'I don't know why I didn't cum'?  If it's the former, when do we ever actualy use this expression? Wouldn't we say, 'I don't know why I didn't go'?  This would sound equally good in the song.  Or did she not orgasm?

Genuinely confused

The word is come.



She may have penned a reply to 'Come Away with Me' or she is regretting
not going away with a loved one or she my have been let down/stood up
by a loved one

[lemoneye]

Hmmm, i think it is ok to say "I dont know why i didnt come" - especially if i were talking to you about a specific event that you attended. Or maybe "I don't know why i didn't come to your party" or similar...

OK thanks.  I guessed as much seeing how Frankie goes to Hollywood got banned for talking about orgasms.  But I still would say go instead of come, but then I like to be correct.

[lemoneye]

Its a shame when you can't always get what you want or would like isn't it BH?

Depending on context, it may be correct to say either "go" or "come"

[Forth Bridges]

I more confused about the line  " there 3 billion biycle in the wolrd"how does she keen?

bounty the much more dirty lycirs that around !

Its a shame when you can't always get what you want or would like isn't it BH?

Yes it is. I tend to stamp my fee and cry.

[lemoneye]

How often does that work for you?

Meant feet not fee so perhaps you need to reassess?

[chocolate chick]

I am not the only one who makes spelling mistakes eh?

That was a typo not a spelling mistake.  There's a difference.

[loulou]

yeah yeah boutny

I don't know the song or the woman so I cannot comment but I agree with Lemoneye. It would be perfectly OK to say "I don't know why I didn't come" for instance, in reply to the question "why didn't you attend the meeting last night?". The act of leaving out the implied to the meeting after I don't know why I didn't come is called an elipses.

Plus come rhymes with fun and sun, which are in the preceeding and following lines!
