Lyrics
It's not just a love affair, it's all or nothing
Expressing that the relationship is not just casual, it's either fully committed or nothing at all.
Do I bet it all on love? Or change and freak out?
Contemplating whether to risk everything for love or to undergo a significant change and react strongly.
When the chances come my way, will they up and disappear?
Questioning the reliability of opportunities in love and if they might suddenly vanish.
Will it ever go my way? Or am I out of here?
Wondering if things will ever go in the speaker's favor or if the relationship is doomed.
There'll be tears before your bedtime, you mark my words
Forewarning that there will be emotional challenges before the end of the day.
You wanted more than I could give you
Acknowledging that the partner desired more from the speaker than what they could provide.
You wanted more than you could have
Highlighting the partner's unfulfilled desires, exceeding what they could realistically attain.
It's not just a love affair, it's now or never
Reiterating that the relationship demands decisive action and commitment now or never.
Could I give it all to you? Is that what we're about?
Considering the possibility of giving one's all in the relationship and questioning its essence.
If I hold you, will you stay? Or will you up and disappear?
Uncertainty about whether holding onto the partner will result in them staying or leaving suddenly.
Be forever and a day, like your letter said
Expressing a desire for a lasting connection as mentioned in a letter.
There'll be tears before your bedtime, you mark my words
Reiterating the expectation of emotional difficulties before the end of the day.
You wanted more than I could give you
Acknowledging the partner's desire for more than the speaker can provide emotionally.
You wanted more than you could have
Highlighting the partner's aspirations exceeding what is realistically attainable.
When the chances come my way, will they up and disappear?
Repeating the earlier concern about the reliability of romantic opportunities.
Will it ever go my way? Or am I out of here?
Questioning if the relationship will ever be favorable or if it's destined to end.
There'll be tears before your bedtime, you mark my words
Reiterating the prediction of emotional challenges before bedtime.
You wanted more than I could give you
Acknowledging the partner's desire for more emotional fulfillment.
You wanted more than you could have
Emphasizing the partner's unrealistic expectations.
More than you could have
Stating again the partner's desires exceeding what is feasible.
More than you could have
Repeating the theme of the partner wanting more than realistically possible.
More than you could have
Reiterating the idea that the partner's expectations are beyond fulfillment.
