Loving Me
Love's Complicated Dance: Alison Ogden's Reflections on Desire
Lyrics
Sometimes I really seem to get it mixed up
Sometimes, I find it challenging to distinguish things clearly.
Can't see my right from left, and now I'm just fucked
Feeling disoriented and messed up, unable to discern right from left.
It's easier to go with no strings attached
Choosing a path without emotional attachments seems easier.
Let's be real I want you till you want me back
Being honest, I desire you until you reciprocate the feelings.
Ooh I think I'm just in love
Expressing a feeling of being in love.
In love with you loving me
Falling in love with the idea of you loving me.
I'm a sucker for your validation
Admitting vulnerability, seeking approval or acknowledgment.
You give and I take selfishly
Acknowledging a tendency to take without giving, being selfish.
Oh baby
An affectionate term expressing intimacy.
It's easy
Stating that the situation is uncomplicated.
So easy
Emphasizing the simplicity of the situation.
So easy, yeah
Reiterating the easiness of the current state.
You give me all that I could ever ask for
Grateful for receiving everything one could ask for.
It's true though
Acknowledging the truth in the received blessings.
Asked God for you and somehow I still want more
Despite asking for you from God, there's still a desire for more.
I can't think straight
Experiencing emotional confusion or distraction.
Ooh I think I'm just in love
Reiterating the feeling of being in love.
In love with you loving me
Falling in love with the reciprocity of being loved.
I'm a sucker for your validation
Expressing susceptibility to seeking validation.
You give and I take selfishly
Acknowledging a selfish tendency in the give-and-take dynamic.
Oh baby
An affectionate term expressing intimacy, again.
Easy to get what I want in love,
Stating that it's easy to obtain what is desired in love.
Even when I know I'm not ready
Despite not feeling ready, finding it easy to pursue love.
Easy to get what I want: it all
Highlighting the ease of obtaining everything one wants in love.
Easy for me and you let me
Expressing that it's easy for both parties involved.
Ooh I think I'm just in love
Reiterating the feeling of being in love.
In love with you loving me
Falling in love with the idea of reciprocal love.
I'm a sucker for your validation
Acknowledging susceptibility to seeking validation, again.
You give and I take selfishly
Reiterating the selfish dynamic in giving and taking.
Selfish oh baby
Emphasizing the selfish nature of the relationship.
Ooh I think that you're in love with chasing
Suggesting that the other person is motivated by the thrill of chasing.
Somebody - it's me
Implying that the other person is chasing the speaker.
