Lyrics
I can't be at your beck and call
I cannot always be available whenever you want me.
Your love so slow and heavy
Your love is slow and intense, reminiscent of a southern accent.
It's like a southern drawl
The love is compared to a drawl, suggesting a distinctive, leisurely, and charming quality.
It don't seem worth your time
It may not be worth investing time in this relationship.
If the two of us ain't one of a kind
If our connection isn't unique or special.
I won't be another turn
I won't be just another experience for you.
To gather up and use what you learn
Don't use me as a lesson to gather knowledge for future relationships.
And of course he's always on your mind
Someone else is always on your mind.
You should hold him dear
Consider valuing and cherishing the person who occupies your thoughts.
Leave his love behind
Leave the previous love interest's affection behind.
'Cause you can't call it moving on
Moving on cannot be claimed if you are still entangled in past emotions.
If all I do is make you feel so wrong
If being with me only brings discomfort or guilt.
I won't be another turn
Reiteration that the speaker won't be a mere passing experience.
To gather up and use what you learn
Don't use the speaker as a stepping stone for personal growth or learning.
Of all the ways a man might live
Reflecting on different ways a man can lead his life.
To love and to laugh, to do and to give
To love, laugh, act, and give are highlighted as essential aspects of life.
I know that it could take some time
Acknowledging that it might take time to understand and embrace these aspects.
Go be with him, but then be mine
Suggesting the possibility of being with someone else, but also asking for commitment.
