.......I'd be the luckiest man in the universe, if cause and effect didn't get there first, but she (she being you kate) keeps looking for patterns, and the world just happens.....

He added in the "she being you kate" part (my name is Kate.) What does this even mean?! I want to know!
I agree with AwwSugar. I think he's saying he's certain he wants to be with you, but he's not sure how you feel because you look at life more cerebrally, and you both let life come between the two of you without stating feelings openly. Also, I think he's saying that he's a little chicken to say he has strong feelings for you.

I looked up the lyrics from this song, "Deja Vu," by Something for Kate, which helped me come to my conclusion about what he's saying. Here are the full lyrics:

Quote:
"Deja Vu" by Something for Kate

Light globes wash up, all along the beach.
And they light me up with, and they light me up with certainty.
Well she calculates, coincidence, and circumstance and turbulence.
Gotta see what it is, and it's everything, and it's endless.

'Cause baby can't see through, all this matter and makeup and déjà vu.
Yeah we drift here alone, with nothing to do.
Until one of us makes the other one come true.

She wants to meet her fate, but travel by free will.
But you can't have both and you can't stand still, still, still.
I'd be the luckiest man in the universe, if cause and effect doesn't get there first.
But she, keeps looking for patterns, and the world just happens.

'Cause baby can't see through, all this matter and makeup and déjà vu.
Yeah we drift here alone, with nothing to do.
Until one of us makes the other one come true.
Yeah one of us makes the other one come true.

Yeah 'cause baby can't see through,
through all this matter and makeup and déjà vu.
Yeah we drift here alone, we drift here alone.
Yeah we drift here alone, we drift here alone.
Yeah we drift here alone, with nothin' to do.
Until one of us makes the other one come true.
Yeah one of us makes the other one come true.
She said these questions don't answer like other questions do.
So just let me be here with you.
