Romeo
Unveiling the Passionate Tale of Love: Donna Summer's Romeo
Lyrics
My baby wears his heart on his sleeve
Expressing that her partner is emotionally open and transparent.
He wears a look on his face that says please please please
Describing the pleading expression on her partner's face.
Love it
An expression of affection or approval.
Everything he flaunts love it
Highlighting that her partner displays love openly.
Everything he vaunts I just
Emphasizing her partner's pride in love-related matters.
Can't hesitate when he wants what he wants
Indicating her inability to resist when he expresses his desires.
Oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka
Repetition, possibly reflecting a rhythmic or emotional element.
And I said oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka
-Last night he calls me on the telephone
Recalling a late-night phone call from her partner.
You know at two in the morning I just want to sleep on
Expressing a desire for sleep despite the late hour.
But he's got a way with words and
Acknowledging her partner's persuasive way with words.
He's got a way with charm
Highlighting her partner's charming personality.
And at three in the morning he's back into my arms
Describing a reunion in the early morning hours.
And I said oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka
Repetition, possibly emphasizing emotions or events.
And I said oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
Repeated affirmation of her partner as "Romeo," indicating possession.
He's my Romeo... oh, oh... oh, oh, oh
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
-He's my are-O-M-E-O, Romeo
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
-He's my Romeo oh, oh... oh, oh, oh
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
-He's mine
-My my Romeo, my my Romeo, my my Romeo, my my Romeo
Repetition, emphasizing her possessive connection with "Romeo."
He looks so good the girls stop and stare
Describing her partner's attractive appearance and the attention he receives.
But I soon wanna look with his double dark hair
Expressing her admiration for her partner's dark hair.
I'm not gonna let him go
Declaring her commitment to keeping her partner.
I'm not taking any chance
Refusing to take any risks in their relationship.
It's a one in million mad mad romance
Describing their romance as rare and intense.
Oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka
Repetition, possibly reflecting emotional intensity or excitement.
Oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka, oh chucka
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
Reiterated assertion of possession over "Romeo."
He's my Romeo oh, oh... oh, oh, oh
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
-He's my are-O-M-E-O, Romeo
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
-He's my Romeo oh, oh... oh, oh, oh
-He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
-He's mine, Romeo
-My my Romeo, my my Romeo
Repetition, reinforcing the claim of ownership over "Romeo."
He's my Romeo

-My my Romeo, he's my Romeo
