Lyrics

And I love the things we've done

Expressing affection for past experiences or memories shared

I know its true, you just wanna have fun

Recognizing the desire for enjoyment or amusement

But you make me right in the head

Acknowledging the partner's positive influence on mental well-being

You're my dream at night, and you're laying in my bed

Highlighting the partner's presence in dreams and in physical proximity

And don't you know

Asking for awareness or understanding

You see through me like a ghost

Feeling transparent or easily understood, like a ghost

I'm still the boy you chose

Asserting continued choice by the partner

Won't you hold me close till I can't breathe

Requesting close physical affection until overwhelmed

I'm broke

Emotionally or financially lacking

Take my heart and keep it closed

Offering the heart for safekeeping

And maybe love's a 'joke

Suggesting skepticism or uncertainty about love

But won't you take my heart and keep it closed for me

Repeating the request to guard the heart

When I go away do you keep me in mind

Questioning if one is remembered when absent

Because you know nowadays an honest girl's hard to find

Commenting on the scarcity of honest partners

I kiss you too much but I don't give a damn

Expressing disregard for excessive affection given

My love is too much sometimes its just how I am

Admitting to overwhelming love as part of one's nature

And don't you know

Reiterating the feeling of being transparent or easily understood

You see through me like a ghost

Reaffirming the choice made by the partner

I'm still the boy you chose

Requesting intense closeness until overwhelmed

Won't you hold me close till I can't breathe

Feeling emotionally or financially inadequate

I'm broke

Offering the heart for safekeeping once more

Take my heart and keep it closed

Expressing doubt or cynicism about love

And maybe love's a 'joke

Repeating the request for protection of the heart

But won't you take my heart and keep it closed for me

Reiterating the plea to keep the heart guarded

Please

Requesting earnestly

Please

Continuing the earnest request

Please just keep it closed for me

Urging to keep the heart closed for the speaker's benefit

Please

Repeating the urging

Please

Continuing the repetition of the plea

And please don't call me weak

Requesting not to be labeled as weak

And don't you know

Reiterating the feeling of being transparent or easily understood

You see through me like a ghost

Reaffirming the choice made by the partner

I'm still the boy you chose

Requesting intense closeness until overwhelmed

Won't you hold me close till I can't breathe

Feeling emotionally or financially inadequate

I'm broke

Offering the heart for safekeeping once more

Take my heart and keep it closed

Expressing doubt or cynicism about love

And maybe love's a 'joke

Repeating the request for protection of the heart

But won't you take my heart and keep it closed for me

Reiterating the plea to keep the heart guarded
