Table for Two

### From

"**Table For Two**" (sometimes stylized as"**Table For 2**") is the 6th track featured on Kali Uchis' debut mixtape, *Drunken Babble*.

## Background

The song was released as a single on Kali's SoundCloud account on February 6, 2013, making it the only songs on the mixtape along with "T.Y.W.I.G" officially released on a music streaming platform.

In that year, a promotional thumbnail for the song appeared on Kali's website.

## Theme

The song is about feeling disappointed. Kali made dinner and set up for her and her significant other to be eating together but he did not show up so she thinks that is was stupid of her to have expected to not be eating alone.

Kali has really fallen for the listener, like a “fool”. She seems to be kicking herself during the while, as she’s already gone through the route of relationships and knows how they all end.

## Live performances

The first known performance of the song was in a special show for Valentine's Day at The L.A Observatory in 2017. Later in December of that year, Kali performed it at The BUE Festival in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

## Music video

A music video for the song, directed by Kali herself, resurfaced on October 25, 2016, on YouTube. It was made private for unknown reasons and was most likely filmed in 2012 and released late in that year too. The video has a vintage style and in it we can see various clips of Kali with a telephone on her bed, with a skate and also dancing outside her house in Virginia, her hometown in Colombia.Template:Music video

## Lyrics

I set the table for two

I set the table for two

Maybe it's 'cause I'm a fool

I set the table for two

I set the table for two

Maybe it's 'cause I'm a fool

I set the table for you

I'm-I'm really just an idiot like you say

'Cause you're the only one I think about all damn day

But now you're going through that whole fix again

See my chest rip open

At the thought that you changed

My breath got caught up in my throat when you look at me

I feel like I'm on the tightrope when you look at me

I don't have a doubt but you say you're losing hope

Baby just give me a kiss maybe, maybe we can cope

I just don't understand what you expect me to do

Every time you say I'm lying babe I was telling the truth

You say that I'm giving nothing but I give you my youth

Every time you get this way I gotta be bulletproof

I set the table for two

Maybe it's cause I'm a fool

I set the table for

I set the table for two

Maybe it's cause I'm a fool

I set the table for two

I set the table for two

Maybe it's cause I'm a fool

I set the table for you

Table for two

Table for two

Table for me and you

And you
