Lyrics

Tell me more and more and then some

Expresses a desire for additional information or details repeatedly.

You know what I long to hear

Desires to hear something specific and meaningful.

I want more and more and then some

Expresses an ongoing longing for more, beyond the ordinary.

Of that "I Love You Only Dear"

Desires an abundance of love exclusively from a special person.


Tell me more and more and then some

Reiterates the request for more details, emotions, or expressions.

The way that you feel and then

Asks for the emotional depth and sincerity in communication.

When you've told that old sweet story

Refers to a recurring sweet narrative and the desire to hear it again.

And you're through, start right in again

Encourages the repetition of the affectionate story after completion.

I've made that old mistake

Admits a past error, possibly related to trusting someone.

Know the awful ache

Acknowledges the pain of a betrayed heart.

Of a heart that's double crossed

Describes the anguish of being deceived in love.

The waitin's been so long

Highlights the prolonged period of anticipation and yearning.

Hard to believ'in

Expresses doubt or disbelief in the possibility of happiness.

If I've missed my guess, happiness is lost

Suggests that, if the interpretation is correct, happiness is elusive.


Tell me more and more and then some

Reiterates the request for more information, feelings, or expressions.

You know how I love that stuff

Expresses a strong affection for the mentioned content or narrative.

Whisper on from now

Encourages the continuation of intimate communication indefinitely.

'Til Doomsday

References an extended period of time, possibly symbolizing eternity.

But I never will hear enough

Stresses that the desire for information or emotions will never be satisfied.


Tell me more and more and then some

Repeats the plea for more details, emotions, or expressions.

The way that you feel and then

Reiterates the importance of the emotional aspect in communication.

When you've told that old sweet story

Calls for the repetition of a beloved narrative and its continuation.

And you're through, start right in again

Encourages restarting the sweet story immediately after its conclusion.

I've made that old mistake

Acknowledges a previous error, likely related to trust or emotions.

Know the awful ache

Recognizes the painful experience of a betrayed heart once again.

Of a heart that's double crossed

Reiterates the agony of being deceived in matters of the heart.

The waitin's been so long

Emphasizes the prolonged duration of waiting and anticipation.

Hard to believ'in

Expresses skepticism or disbelief in the possibility of belief or trust.

If I've missed my guess, happiness is lost

If the interpretation is accurate, suggests the loss of happiness.
