Without the Girl
Yearning Echoes: A Heart's Plea for Love in 'Without the Girl'
Lyrics
And mama told me if I want her. I gotta take it slow
Receiving advice from his mother to pursue the girl slowly.
You just can't tell her, you gotta find other ways to let her know
Emphasizing the need to express feelings in unconventional ways.
But I don't understand this game
Expressing confusion about the dynamics of pursuing a romantic interest.
This is so new to me
Feeling inexperienced and uncertain in matters of love.
I want to tell her
Expressing the desire to communicate his feelings to the girl.
I want to take her in my arms
Yearning to embrace the girl romantically.
Give her time and maybe one-day she'll come around
Advocating patience, hoping the girl will reciprocate in the future.
And see the love I am offering
Believing in the depth and sincerity of his love.
‘Cause I don't want to live without the girl
Expressing the fear of living without the girl in his life.
Heaven knows everyday I pray
Praying daily for a future where the girl belongs to him.
That someday she will belong to me
Longing for the day when the girl becomes his.
‘Cause I don't want to live without the girl
Reiterating the reluctance to live without the girl.
She is my sunshine but her heart belongs to another man
Acknowledging the girl as his source of joy despite her attachment to another man.
She looks right through me, she only ever though of us as friends
Realizing the girl sees their relationship as friendship, not romantic.
But I'll keep holding back my heart
Deciding to hide his true feelings to avoid rejection.
I will not let her see
Committing to keep his emotions concealed from the girl.
I gonna bide my time
Planning to wait patiently for the right moment to reveal his love.
until the day she comes to me
Anticipating the day when the girl will reciprocate his feelings.
Give her time and maybe one-day she'll come around
Repeating the hope that time will lead the girl to reciprocate.
And see the love I'm offering
Reaffirming the sincerity of the love he is offering.
‘Cause I don't want to live without the girl
Restating the fear of living without the girl.
Heaven knows, everyday I pray
Continuing to pray daily for a future with the girl.
That someday she will belong to me
Expressing the ongoing longing for the girl to belong to him.
‘Cause I don't want to live without the girl
Reiterating the fear of living without the girl in his life.
Give her time and maybe one-day she'll come around
Repeating the theme of patience and hope for the girl to come around.
And see the love I'm offering
Reaffirming the sincerity and depth of his love for the girl.
‘Cause I don't want to live without the girl
Emphasizing the fear of living without the girl in his life.
Heaven knows, everyday I pray
Continuing to pray daily for a future with the girl.
That someday she will belong to me
Expressing the persistent longing for the girl to belong to him.
‘Cause I don't want to live without the girl
Reiterating the reluctance to live without the girl.
