Harmony of Heartstrings: Dylan Keawe's Serenade to Sudden Love
Lyrics
Listen babe listen babe
Expressing a desire for attention and connection
I just want with you to be
Desiring to be with the listener
I can barely even speak
Feeling overwhelmed or excited, making communication difficult
Listen babe listen babe
Reiterating the desire for the listener's attention
All this has come so suddenly
Describing the suddenness of a significant event or realization
As she pulls upon my heartstrings
Metaphorical expression of being emotionally affected
It was a full moon
Setting the scene with a full moon, creating a romantic atmosphere
On the second night
Indicating a specific time frame for the events
Maybe the third time I had ever laid my eyes upon you
Recalling early encounters with the person of interest
But in that moment
Highlighting a significant moment
In that light
Emphasizing the importance of the lighting conditions
Just the right amount of conversation
Appreciating the right balance of conversation during that moment
I feel all the sparks they’re flying now
Feeling excited and energized by the connection
She’s a classic so I just sing out
Appreciating the person as a timeless and enduring figure
Do do do
Repeating a musical expression, possibly indicating joy or celebration
Do do do
-Do do do do do do do
-Do do do
Continuation of the musical expression
Listen babe listen babe
Repetition of previous verses, underscoring the emotional intensity
I just want with you to be
-I can barely even speak
-Listen babe listen babe
-All this has come so suddenly
-As she pulls upon my heartstrings
-I’m a lover not a fighter
-But I’ll fight for what I love
-And when you spend your time daydreaming I hope it’s about us
-Cuz I’ve been feeling like maybe
-You and I should spend some together
-Darling you amaze me
-Listen babe listen babe
-I just want with you to be
-I can barely even speak
-Listen babe listen babe
-All this come so suddenly
-As she pulls upon my heartstrings
-Listen babe listen babe
-I just want with you to be
-I can barely even speak
-Listen babe listen babe
-All this come so suddenly
-I don't know what to think
Expressing uncertainty or confusion about the current situation
