Lyrics
It's the way you tell a story
Expressing admiration for the way the person tells stories
That gets us all hooked
Highlighting the captivating nature of the storytelling
Hook, line and sinker
Using the metaphor "Hook, line, and sinker" to emphasize the allure of the storytelling
Captivating when you're holding court
Describing the person as captivating when speaking in a group
You give this look
Referring to a particular look given by the person
Shrewd as a splinter
Comparing the shrewdness of the look to a splinter
I know how cold you get
Acknowledging the emotional coldness of the person
How cold you go
Reiterating the coldness and emotional withdrawal
I know how sad you get,
Recognizing the sadness within the person
How sad you go, you go, you go
Repeating the acknowledgment of the person's sadness and emotional withdrawal
If you're already gone
Pondering if the person has already left emotionally
can I have
Asking for one last interaction or connection if the person is already emotionally distant
just one last
Expressing a desire for a final moment
moment to say
Desiring to express love in that last moment
I love you
Stating the expression of love
I understand, I do
Expressing understanding of the situation
It's the way you push your shoulders back
Noting a particular body language, the act of pushing shoulders back
And puff your chest
Describing the person's proud demeanor
As proud as a robin
Using the metaphor "As proud as a robin" to emphasize the pride
It's the way you never back down from an argument
Highlighting the person's assertiveness in arguments
It’s your God-given right to be right
Asserting the person's confidence in being right
I know how dark you get,
Acknowledging the person's inner darkness
How dark you go
Reiterating the acknowledgment of the person's darkness and emotional withdrawal
I know how hard it is,
Acknowledging the difficulty the person faces
How hard it gets, it gets for you
Repeating the acknowledgment of the person's challenges
If you're already gone
Pondering if the person has already left emotionally (repeated)
can I have
Asking for one last interaction or connection if the person is already emotionally distant (repeated)
just one last
Expressing a desire for a final moment (repeated)
moment to say
Desiring to express love in that last moment (repeated)
I love you
Stating the expression of love (repeated)

I miss you
Expressing a sense of missing the person
To say, I love you
Repeating the expression of love
To say, I understand
Repeating the expression of understanding
I do
Affirming understanding and agreement
