I want her
Capturing Love's Colors: A Journey Through 'I Want Her' by Jacob Engelking
Lyrics
I met her on a boat going where I wanna go
Encountered her on a journey towards my desired destination, possibly a metaphorical boat.
And I said "Hey, how's your day"
Initiated a conversation with a simple greeting, asking about her day.
And she asked mine and we both said fine
Mutual exchange of positive responses about their respective days.
Kind of funny I got lucky
Expressing a sense of luck or fortune in the interaction.
I took her hand, said "Here's the bar"
Took the initiative to guide her to the bar, a gesture indicating interest.
Let's take a seat so I can meet you
Invited her to sit for a conversation to get to know each other.
Let's order things we'd never eat
Suggested ordering unconventional or adventurous food items.
Oh I don't wanna be another to put into a corner
Expressed a desire not to be someone easily overlooked or ignored.
Collecting dust for weeks
Referenced the avoidance of being neglected or forgotten over time.
You're like no other
Acknowledged her uniqueness compared to others.
I think I want her
Expressed a developing attraction or interest in the person.
Mmm
Mmm (Possibly an expression of satisfaction or contemplation.)
I think I'd like
Expressed a liking or preference for having her in his life.
You in my life
Desired her presence in his life until things become clear or certain.
'Til the world is black and white
Imagined a future where everything is simplified, represented by black and white.
Stay and let's say
Encouraged her to stay and build a life together.
You didn't leave
Implied a desire for her not to leave.
And you'd settle down with me
Expressed a wish for a long-term commitment and settling down.
The boat arrived
The boat reached its destination.
So you got off and ran with me
She disembarked and joined him in a rush.
Through the streets
Together, they navigated through the streets.
In pouring rain
Encountered adverse conditions, symbolized by pouring rain.
To get away from everything
Escaped from the challenges of life.
We went shopping
Engaged in a shared activity of shopping.
Grabbed some coffee
Enjoyed a casual moment with coffee.
We tried on a couple clothes
Shared the experience of trying on clothes together.
I've never seen someone quite like you
Expressed admiration for her unique ability to wear anything with style.
Who pulled off everything they wore
Highlighted her fashion sense and versatility.
Oh I don't wanna be another to put into a corner
Reiterated a desire not to be overlooked or forgotten.
Collecting dust for weeks
Repeated the theme of avoiding neglect over time.
You're like no other
Reaffirmed her uniqueness and special qualities.
I think I want her
Reiterated the growing attraction or interest in the person.
Oh oh oh
Expressed the sentiment with an exclamation (Oh oh oh).
I think I'd like
Reiterated the liking or preference for having her in his life.
You in my life
Desired her presence until things become clear or certain.
'Til the world is black and white
Imagined a future simplified to black and white.
Stay and let's say
Encouraged her to stay and build a life together.
You didn't leave
Implied a desire for her not to leave.
And you'd settle down with me
Expressed a wish for a long-term commitment and settling down.
