Lyrics
Don't tell me things that I wanna hear
Expressing a desire for honesty, not wanting to hear pleasing lies.
Just to please my ear
Emphasizing the preference for genuine communication over flattery.
Yeah that drives me crazy
Frustration with deceptive or unclear communication.
Girl, I'm gonna ask you one more time
Pleading for a sincere response, asking what is on the partner's mind.
What's on your mind?
Reiterating the question about the partner's thoughts or feelings.
Cause the signals hazy
Expressing confusion or uncertainty due to unclear signals.
You're not the kind of girl who laughs at me
Acknowledging the partner's seriousness, not one to mock or belittle.
When I tell you all the things I wanna be
Highlighting aspirations and ambitions to the partner.
And that's why I plead
Stressing the importance of understanding and acceptance.
Baby, baby, baby, please don't leave me
Repeated plea for the partner not to leave, emphasizing desperation.
Baby, baby, baby, please don't leave me
-Baby, baby, baby, please don't leave me out
-Oh what would I do
Expressing concern and uncertainty about the future without the partner.
If I couldn't talk to you?
Highlighting the significance of communication and connection.
Come on let's go out a while
Suggesting spending time together to rediscover joy.
And find that smile
Encouraging finding happiness and smiles that seem to be lost.
That you keep on losing
Acknowledging the challenges of life, using a metaphor of losing smiles.
Girl, this world can be so cold
Commenting on the harshness of the world.
But we'll both grow old
Expressing commitment to growing old together despite challenges.
If our words get frozen
Highlighting the potential impact of words on their relationship.
I'll be around when you want me
Committing to being present and available when needed.
And I'll be quiet when you can't be
Willingness to be silent and understanding during difficult times.
I would never leave you lonely
Ensuring the partner won't be left alone and lonely.
If you'd be my one and only
Expressing a desire for an exclusive and committed relationship.
If you ever had a secret
Offering trust and assurance in keeping the partner's secrets.
Yeah you know I could keep it
Reassuring the ability to maintain confidentiality.
I gotta sit what can I do
Expressing a sense of helplessness or frustration.
Cause I can't stand the thought
Conveying the unbearable thought of a day without the partner.
Of a day without you
Continuation of the fear and discomfort at the idea of separation.
