Chasing Dreams, Seeking Love: Brian McKnight's next2U Story
Lyrics
Never dropped a dime
Expressing loyalty, never betrayed anyone.
Never played to lose
Always played to win, never accepted defeat.
It's not really a lie if you're telling half the truth
Suggesting honesty, even if not the whole truth.
All the other girls, was just to pass the time
Past relationships were just distractions until encountering someone special.
Til you let me get next to you (til you let me get next to you)
Expressing the desire to be close to someone.
Til you let me get next to you (til you let me get next to you)
Reiteration of the desire to be close to someone.
Never had a dream that ever came true
Previous dreams never materialized.
Never met a girl who was anything like you
Comparing others to someone unique and exceptional.
Til I hear
Intro to expressing determination to be close to the person.
I'm a hold my breathe til you let me get next to you
Determined to hold on until given a chance to be close.
What do you say
Asking for the person's thoughts or feelings.
Could you feel the same way, about me
Expressing a hope for mutual feelings.
Can't you see
Asking the person to recognize the emotions being conveyed.
All I want is you. all I need is you
Stating a simple desire and need for the person.
Never had much luck, mistakes I made a few
Admitting past mistakes but feeling a positive change.
But I feel my luck has change, if you tell me what to do
Believing that luck has improved with the potential partner's guidance.
I'm not would you'd you expect, if I come to bed
Expressing vulnerability and seeking approval.
Would you let me get next to you
Reiteration of the desire to be close.
Would you let me get next to you
Reaffirming the desire to be close.
You stay on my mind, ever constantly
Constantly thinking about the person.
I won't show the best until you give you to me
Withholding the best until reciprocation is received.
I hunger for your touch, I could never get enough
Expressing a deep longing for physical contact.
If you let me get next to you
Reiterating the desire to be close with a condition.
If you let me get next to you
