Love Me
Embracing Longing: Jeffrey Gaines' 'Love Me' Reveals the Heart's Cry
Lyrics
Clear, it's becoming quite clear
Expressing clarity, a clear understanding is emerging
That I want you here
Desiring the presence of the person being addressed
And I miss my home
Feeling a sense of longing for one's home
And home, is wherever you are
Defining home as wherever the addressed person is
And now we're far apart
Currently separated and experiencing a sense of distance
And I feel so alone
Feeling loneliness in the absence of the person
I put on such a front
Admitting to putting on a facade or false appearance
But all I really want
Expressing the true desire, which is to be with the person
Hold me kiss me touch me love me
Explicitly stating the need for physical affection
Need me want me hold me love me
Reiterating the desire for emotional and physical connection
I have nothing to fear
Claiming a lack of fear in the current situation
Who cares if I appear
Downplaying concerns about how one appears to others
Somewhat slightly naive
Acknowledging a certain level of innocence or lack of experience
It's true, I really need you
Affirming a genuine need for the addressed person
And I'll stand accused
Accepting responsibility and potentially facing judgment
With my heart on my sleeve
Being emotionally vulnerable and open about feelings
Every waking hour
Expressing a constant desire throughout waking hours
I just want to shout
Strongly wanting to convey emotions to the addressed person
Hold me kiss me touch me love me
Reiterating the need for physical affection and love
Need me want me hold me love me
Emphasizing the emotional and physical requirements
I had been too proud
Admitting to past pride and reluctance to express emotions
To let my feelings out
Highlighting the internal struggle with emotions
Hold me kiss me touch me love me
Restating the need for physical affection and love
Need me want me hold me love me
Affirming the ongoing desire for emotional and physical connection
