Unspoken Longings: Grant Landis' Melody of Unrequited Love
Lyrics
Distance got a hold of you that's all right
The distance between us has created a separation, but the singer is accepting of this.
I would do it all the same I won't pay no mind
The singer would make the same choices again and doesn't regret them.
Everything that we did oh that last time
Recollection of shared experiences from the past.
Baby, it meant everything I won't tell no lie
The shared moments meant a lot to the singer, and he's being truthful about it.
And baby we know that the things that you want I don't got
The singer recognizes there are certain desires or qualities the other person wants which he lacks.
And baby I pray that I'll end up being your one
Despite the shortcomings, the singer hopes to be the one for the other person in the future.
But for now
There's a temporary pause or uncertainty in their relationship.
I won't bother you
The singer reassures that he won't intrude or disturb the other person.
I won't bother you
-Baby, call me back
A request for communication or a callback, but without intending to disturb further.
But I won't bother you
Reiteration of the singer's decision to give space and not disturb the other person.
I won't bother you
-I won't bother you
-Halfway across the country I'm a mess
Physical and emotional distance has caused turmoil for the singer.
Got memories that I'm holding can't unpack
The singer holds onto past memories and struggles to let go.
Little things been killing me you know that
Small details or minor issues are causing emotional pain.
I could love you all the same won't hold back yeah
The singer is willing to love and commit fully, without reservations.
And baby, we know that the things that you want I don't got
Reiteration of the singer's intention to respect the other person's space and not intrude.
And baby, I pray that I'll end up being your one
-But for now
-I won't bother you
Continuation of the theme of the singer's decision to maintain distance and not disturb.
I won't bother you
-Baby, call me back
-But I won't bother you
-I won't bother you
-I won't bother you
-You used to beg me for my love
In the past, the other person sought the singer's affection eagerly.
Now baby I can't get enough
Now, the singer deeply desires the other person's love and attention.
You used to beg me for my touch
In earlier times, the other person desired physical closeness with the singer.
I took it for granted
The singer acknowledges that he didn't fully appreciate or value the other person's affection before.
So I won't bother you
Final reaffirmation of the singer's decision to give space and not intrude in the other person's life.
I won't bother you
