Lyrics

I got you on

I am thinking about you


my mind

You are constantly on my mind


And you won’t go away

Your presence is persistent


But that’s ok

Despite your constant presence, I am accepting of it


I want you to stay

I desire for you to remain with me


For a little while

I want you to stay for a brief period


Maybe for a day

Possibly just for a day


I know it’s wrong

I acknowledge that this desire might be morally questionable


but it’s been so long

Despite the moral conflict, it has been a long time since I felt this way


Since I’ve held you

I haven't embraced you in a while


In these arms of mine

I long to hold you in my arms


Girl I love you but I have to go

Expressing love, but acknowledging the need to part ways


But I got you on

Reiteration of thinking about the person


my mind

Continued preoccupation with thoughts of you


And you won’t go away

Your presence remains persistent


But that’s ok

Acceptance of the constant presence


I want you to stay

Expressing the desire for you to continue staying


For a little while

Wanting you to stay briefly


Maybe for a day

Possibly just for a day


I know it’s wrong

Acknowledging the moral dilemma


but it’s been so long

Despite the moral conflict, it's been a long time since feeling this way


Since I’ve held you

I haven't embraced you in a while


In these arms of mine

Expressing the longing to hold you


Girl I love you but I have to go

Reiteration of love but recognizing the necessity to depart
