"Can't Be Yours" by Justin Stone is a song about a person who is not able to commit to a long-term relationship. The lyrics reflect the speaker's awareness that they are unable to fully give themselves to someone else emotionally. The song starts by asking the listener if they enjoy the speaker's affectionate gestures such as kissing their lips and saying their name. However, the speaker quickly admits that they cannot be fully dedicated to the listener and that their presence can only be temporary. This is reflected in the repetition of the line "I can't be yours." The speaker acknowledges their tendency to be a player but recognizes that the listener has caught genuine feelings for them. Despite this awareness, the speaker remains firm in their decision not to commit, knowing that it would only lead the listener to feel hurt or disappointed. The chorus repeats the question about the listener's enjoyment of the speaker's actions, emphasizing that no matter how much they like it, the speaker cannot be theirs. The repetition of "no no" further emphasizes the speaker's denial of commitment. The bridge of the song shifts the perspective to the listener, urging them not to consider the speaker as "the one" for them. The speaker acknowledges that they are not the right match for the listener, further solidifying their inability to fully commit. The song ends with the speaker expressing that when they are gone, the listener will miss their touch. However, they emphasize that they are aware the listener can find companionship elsewhere, encouraging the listener to show them something different. Overall, "Can't Be Yours" explores themes of short-term relationships, fear of commitment, and the contradictory emotions experienced by both parties involved.
