Too Much
Yearning Hearts: Embracing Love's Painful Pleasures
Lyrics
All I ever wanted
All the singer ever desired
Was to lose myself in you
To immerse oneself completely in the other person
All I ever needed
The sole requirement
Was you to need me too
To have mutual dependence
You're all I ever think about
You occupy the majority of their thoughts
I hunger for your touch
Longing intensely for your physical contact
And all I ever wanted
The only desire
Was you, is that too much?
The singer questions if desiring the person excessively is unreasonable
I hate the pain of loving you
The agony of loving someone
It happens all the time
A recurring experience of pain
I never needed anything or anybody
The singer was self-sufficient until meeting the person
Until your eyes met mine
The moment their eyes met was transformative
I'm waiting for your answer, babe
Anticipating a response from the person
What's gonna become of us?
Concern about the future of their relationship
'cause all I ever wanted
The sole desire remains the person
Was you, is that too much?
Reiterating the question if wanting the person excessively is too much
It is too much to ask
Expressing doubt if it's excessive to desire
That this man with a past
A person with a complex history seeking happiness with the other person
Could be happy at last
The hope for happiness with the person
With a future like you
The person represents a promising future
It is too much to ask
Questioning if their desires are too demanding
Is it too much of a task?
Wondering if their expectations are excessive
Am I going to fast for you?
Concern about moving too quickly in the relationship
Maybe you don't want me
Doubting if the person reciprocates feelings
I'm so scared of losing you
Fearful of losing the person
I never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity
A tendency to miss chances, including this relationship
Watch me screw up this one too
An expectation of failure even in this relationship
It's so hard to talk about love
Expressing difficulty in discussing love
I'm leaving now, oh, it's just
Leaving the situation, possibly due to difficulty
And all I ever wanted
Reiterating the singular desire for the person
Was you, is that too much?
Questioning again if desiring the person excessively is too much
