I Want To Get To Know You
Discovering Love's Path: Craig Dixon's Yearning in 'I Want To Get To Know You'
Lyrics
I want to get to know you
Expressing a desire to become familiar with you
And maybe someday you'll be mine, mine
Hoping that eventually, you'll belong to me
I want to get to know you
Reiterating the desire to understand who you are
But baby it may take some time, time
Recognizing that this process might require patience
What I'm thinking of
Contemplating a possibility that could alter your perception of love
Could maybe change your view of love
Suggesting that what's considered could potentially change your concept of love
If I ever get to know you, know you
If given the chance to understand you completely
I want to get to know you
Reaffirming the desire to learn about you
Each time I look into your eyes, eyes
Every instance of gazing into your eyes
I'd be the one to hold you
Wishing to be the one to embrace and comfort you
The way the sun warms up the skies, skies
Similar to how the sun illuminates the sky
Then you'd look at me
Envisioning a moment of connection
And in that moment you would see
Believing that this moment would reveal something important
If I ever get to know you
Emphasizing the potential outcome if a deep understanding is reached
You'd be mine
Implying a possibility of a relationship if understanding is achieved
If I had life my way
Expressing a wishful scenario where the speaker's life is arranged as desired
You would be with me someday
Desiring your presence in the future
I want to get to know you
Reiterating the longing to know you deeply
Please be mine
A direct plea for a romantic relationship
(Go!)
(Alright)
-I want to get to know you
Expressing again the desire to understand and be close to you
And maybe someday you'll be mine
Similar to the hope expressed earlier about a potential future together
There's nothing more that I could show you
Nothing left to display or give to potentially change your feelings
To maybe change your mind
Trying to influence your perspective on the situation
I've been on my own
Reflecting on a period of solitude
And you can't stand when you're alone
Highlighting discomfort with being alone
If I ever get to know you
Speculating about a positive outcome if understanding between the speaker and you is achieved
We'd be fine
Suggesting that things would be good if a deeper connection is established
