Two of a Kind
Love's Dilemma: Two Hearts Struggling on the Borderline
Lyrics
How can you stand this waiting around
Expressing impatience and frustration with waiting for something.
For the telephone to ring
Waiting for a phone call, possibly from a romantic interest.
You want him bad but you can't let it show
Desire for someone, but trying to hide those feelings.
'Cause you are scared of losing him
Fear of the possibility of losing the person being desired.
He lets you down when he stands you up
Feeling disappointed when the person doesn't keep their promises.
And you swear he's history
Believing that the person is now a part of the past.
'Cause you've got to choice
Feeling like there's no alternative or choice in the situation.
When you hear his voice saying,
Quoting the person's words, possibly expressing a plea for intimacy.
Make love to me, make love to me
Repetition of the desire for intimacy, emphasizing its importance.
One more time
Request for one more opportunity for intimacy.
He keeps you on the borderline
Feeling kept in a state of uncertainty or limbo.
He's got a one track mind
Describing the person as having a singular, focused mindset.
And I can see by your smile
Observing a smile, possibly indicating a shared understanding.
That you're two of a kind
Stating a connection or similarity between two individuals.
You're two of a kind
Reiteration of the shared characteristics between the two.
You say it's only a matter of time
Believing that a positive change is only a matter of time.
And there must be someone else
Doubting the person's faithfulness and considering other options.
You want to trust in his promises
Desiring to trust in the person's promises, despite skepticism.
But you'll never fool yourself
Acknowledging self-awareness that deception is a possibility.
Now you're reading into his every move
Overanalyzing and scrutinizing the person's every action.
Like he only tells you lies
Believing that the person is consistently dishonest.
And then you're on the phone
Engaging in a phone conversation where intimacy is proposed again.
And he's on his own sayin'
Indicating the person's solitary status during the call.
Come 'round tonight, make love to me'
Repetition of the request for intimacy during the phone call.
One more time
Reiterating the desire for one more intimate encounter.
He keeps you on the borderline
Continued reference to being in a state of uncertainty or limbo.
He's got a one track mind
Reinforcing the notion that the person has a singular focus.
And I can see by your smile
Observing a smile again, highlighting the shared understanding.
That you're two of a kind
Reiteration of the connection and similarity between the two.
You're two of a kind
Repeating the assertion that they are two of a kind.
Two of a kind
Emphasizing the uniqueness of the shared characteristics.
Two of a kind...
Repeating the idea of being two of a kind.
One more time
Repetition of the desire for one more intimate encounter.
He keeps you on the borderline
Continued reference to being in a state of uncertainty or limbo.
He's got a one track mind
Reinforcing the notion that the person has a singular focus.
And I can see by your smile
Observing a smile again, highlighting the shared understanding.
That you're two of a kind
Reiteration of the connection and similarity between the two.
He's got you on the borderline
Highlighting that the person keeps the individual in a state of uncertainty.
He keeps you on the borderline
Reiterating the idea that the person maintains uncertainty.
He's got a one track mind
Reinforcing the notion that the person has a singular focus.
And I can see by your smile
Observing a smile again, indicating a continued shared understanding.
That you're two of a kind
Final repetition of the assertion that they are two of a kind.
