Lyrics

Caught me in, in the palm of your hand

Feeling entrapped or captivated by the person's influence.

I'm right where you knew that I would land

Acknowledging the predetermined nature of the situation.

So, baby, if you'll love me everyday

Expressing a desire for consistent love from the partner.

I wouldn't want it, I wouldn't have it any other way

Emphasizing a preference for the current state of the relationship.


You make me jump like a puppy on a string

Describing the excitement and joy induced by the partner.

But when I'm in your arms I feel like a king

Feeling elevated and special when embraced by the partner.

So, baby, if you'll love me everyday

Reiterating the desire for continuous love in the relationship.

I wouldn't want it, I wouldn't have it

Stressing the exclusive preference for the current situation.

I wouldn't want it any other way

Reaffirming the preference for the existing state of affairs.


Take my lips, my arms, darling, take all of me

Offering everything to the partner, symbolizing complete surrender.

You can do what you please but just don't set me free

Allowing the partner freedom within certain boundaries.

Baby, if you'll love me everyday

Connecting consistent love with the preferred relationship status.

I wouldn't want it, I wouldn't have it

Reiterating the exclusive desire for the current relationship dynamics.

I wouldn't want it any other way

Emphasizing the resistance to any change in the relationship.


You know I wouldn't want it, baby

Affirming the consistent preference for the current relationship.

I wouldn't have it, baby in any other way

Reiterating the desire for the current relationship dynamics.

Just tell me you love me

Expressing a need to hear verbal confirmation of love.

All I wanna hear from you, baby

Seeking verbal reassurance and affirmation of love.


I don't want it any other way

Reiterating the preference for the existing relationship situation.

Baby, I wouldn't want it any other way

Affirming the consistent desire for the current relationship dynamics.

Just say you love me because I need it

Stressing the importance of verbal expressions of love for personal well-being.

Don't wanna have it any other way

Underlining the resistance to any alteration in the current relationship.
