White Table
Love's Fragile Dance: Yearning at a White Table
Lyrics
Meet me darlin', won't you?
Requesting the person to meet
I've been waiting for you
Expressing anticipation or longing for the person
At my lonesome white table
Referring to a solitary or lonely white table as a place of meeting
Ready, willing, and able
Being prepared and open for the meeting or interaction
Torn in two
Feeling emotionally divided or conflicted
Beaten and scarred
Having endured hardships and visible marks of struggle
I'll give you my love but not my heart
Offering love but withholding deep emotional attachment
Tattered and worn
Describing as worn-out or damaged
Battered and bruised
Describing as physically and emotionally injured
I'll give you my love but it won't be true
Offering love but indicating it won't be genuine or sincere
Someday darlin' maybe
Expressing hope for a future romantic relationship
You could be my baby
Referring to a potential future as partners
Until then I'll be waitin'
Willingness to wait for that future relationship
At my lonesome white table
Reiteration of the solitary white table as a place of waiting
Torn in two
Repetition of feeling emotionally divided or conflicted
Beaten and scarred
Reiteration of having endured hardships and visible marks of struggle
I'll give you my love but not my heart
Repeating the offer of love without complete emotional attachment
Tattered and worn
Repetition of feeling worn-out or damaged
Battered and bruised
Repetition of being physically and emotionally injured
I'll give you my love but it won't be true
Repeating the offer of love without genuineness or sincerity
