Do You Do
Dancing in Shadows: Love's Complex Moves
Lyrics
Why do, why do, why do I
Expressing confusion or questioning about personal actions and choices.
Come to you?
Questioning the reason for approaching the person being addressed.
How do, how do, how do I
Wondering about the method or process of forgetting.
Forget to?
Reflecting on the difficulty of intentionally forgetting something.
Why would, why would, why would I
Pondering the motivation behind following through with a particular action.
Follow through?
Considering whether it is advisable to complete a certain course of action.
When I should, I should, I should just
Weighing the decision to let go and move on.
Forget you
Expressing the idea of choosing to forget someone.
How do, how do you do that
Asking about the manner in which a particular dance is performed.
Dance you do?
Describing the physical act of dancing.
You pull me close and whisper
Describing a close and intimate moment with the person being addressed.
"I want you"
Quoting the whispered words expressing desire from the partner.
We turn, we turn until we're
Describing a shared experience that leads to a transformation.
Something new
Indicating a positive change resulting from the shared experience.
And no one seems to know we
Observing that the nature of the relationship is not apparent to others.
Come as two
Highlighting the unity of the couple in public perception.
You know, you know, you know you
Acknowledging the partner's ability to improve mood.
Lift my mood
Expressing being emotionally overwhelmed but willing to accept help.
Too broke, too broke, too broken
Feeling emotionally shattered but unable to resist assistance.
Too refuse
Acknowledging the warmth and closeness provided by the partner.
And you hold me warm, you hold me close to you
Comparing the emotional healing process to a new patch being sewn.
I'm like a brand new patch sewn when I use
Seeing a positive direction but resisting change.
I see a light on shore yet I refuse
Choosing not to move towards a positive opportunity or change.
To turn toward it and make me new
Expressing a reluctance to embrace positive change.
Why do, why do, why do I
Reiterating the questioning of personal desires and motivations.
I just want you?
Expressing a simple and direct desire for the person being addressed.
Where was, where was, where was I
Reflecting on one's absence or lack of awareness during a specific experience.
When that taste grew?
Questioning one's whereabouts or engagement during a particular event.
I want, I want, I want you
Expressing a desire for reciprocity in emotional needs.
To need me too
Hoping for a mutual emotional connection with the person being addressed.
But you can't, you won't, you'll just find
Recognizing the possibility of the person finding a new connection.
Someone new
Anticipating the potential for the person to move on and find someone new.
