To Get Next to You
Yearning for Proximity: The Allure of Unattainable Love
Lyrics
First night I saw you it was clear to me
Expressing a clear attraction or connection upon the initial encounter.
You were surrounded in mystery
Perceiving an air of enigma or intrigue around the person.
Just one look drew me in
A single glance captivated the speaker.
Haven't been the same since
Life has changed significantly since that moment.
You had me hooked right from the start
The person had a compelling effect from the beginning.
Lights went out and the room went dark
The environment intensified the attraction.
Though I was blind and could not see
Despite initial unawareness, the impact was felt.
Felt the heat so close to me
Sensing physical closeness and warmth.
I never wanted anything quite so bad
Expressing an intense desire for something.
You got something that I never had
The person possesses a unique quality.
I'd climb those mountains, swim these seas
Willingness to overcome challenges for the person.
There ain't nothing in the world that I would not do
Commitment to doing anything for the person.
To get next to you
Reiterating the strong desire to be close to the person.
If I were wise I'd be more cool
Acknowledging a lack of wisdom in handling the situation.
I'm not the kind to play the fool
Not inclined to be deceived or act foolishly.
You got me where I just can't think
Feeling captivated to the point of losing rational thought.
Like a puppet on a string
Comparing oneself to a puppet, controlled by emotions.
Can't remember ever feeling this
Expressing an unprecedented depth of emotion.
I'd give it all for just one kiss
Willing to sacrifice everything for a single moment.
Coming or going I can hardly tell
Uncertainty about the current state of the relationship.
You got me underneath your spell
Feeling entrapped or influenced by the person.
I never wanted anything quite so bad
Reiteration of the intense desire for the person.
You got something that I never had
Highlighting the unique and desirable quality of the person.
I'd climb those mountains, swim these seas
Willingness to overcome significant obstacles for the person.
There ain't nothing in the world that I would not do
Commitment to doing anything to be close to the person.
To get next to you
Reiterating the strong desire to be close to the person.
