Put off Saying Goodbye
Love's Tug of War: Defying Goodbye in Jessie Wagner's Melodic Embrace
Lyrics
You tell me that's it nothing more to be said
You express that the conversation is over, and there's nothing more to discuss.
Then you grab me close, we tumble to the bed
Despite the prior statement, there's physical intimacy as you come close and fall onto the bed.
You love me long, I forget everything
During moments of love, the emotions are intense enough to make everything else fade away.
Then we start to fuss and fight all over again
The cycle repeats with arguments, indicating a pattern of ups and downs in the relationship.
Can't seem to get it right, but I simply can't deny that deep inside
Struggling to find harmony, acknowledging internal conflict, yet a desire to overcome it.
Something makes me wanna try
Despite difficulties, there's an inner motivation compelling you to keep trying.
Cause I love it when you kiss me that way
Expressing affection for the specific way your partner kisses you.
So I'll just put off saying goodbye for another day
Choosing to delay the farewell because of the love experienced in those moments.
Each wanting to lead, standing our ground
Both individuals assert their independence, standing firm in their beliefs.
Not willing to bend, less we're fooling around
Fear of appearing vulnerable, avoiding compromise except in moments of passion.
Don't wanna look weak, cause we got our pride
Avoiding a display of weakness due to pride and the fear of being rejected.
We know how it feels to be put aside
Both have experienced the pain of being ignored or set aside.
Both stubborn to the core, stuck in a tug of war
Stubbornness prevails, leading to a constant struggle that draws them closer to the end.
That we just can't win, draws us closer to the end
Despite the struggles, the difficulties deepen the connection.
But then you hold me in that special way
A special way of holding that brings comfort and momentarily halts the impending goodbye.
And I just put off saying goodbye for another day
Postponing farewells because of the positive moments shared.
What's happening to us
Reflecting on the current state of the relationship and questioning its essence.
Are we lovers out of love
Wondering if the love has faded, contemplating the nature of the connection.
Just holding on for the sake of holding on
Holding onto the relationship, possibly out of habit or fear of being alone.
If we can't give a little more
If there's no effort to improve, questioning the purpose of continuing the fight.
Why keep fighting for
Challenging the persistence in fighting for a feeling that seems elusive.
That feeling - that we just can't seem to get back again
The yearning for a lost feeling that seems difficult to regain.
I look at you, you look at me
A mutual exchange of glances, each contemplating the future of the relationship.
Wondering what's it gonna have to be
Pondering the necessary steps for the relationship to survive.
But we know that the end won't be tonight
Recognizing that the end won't come immediately, suggesting hope for resolution.
Save that talk for the morning light
Delaying serious discussions until a more suitable time, possibly morning.
Overcome with the need to feel you next to me
An overwhelming desire for physical closeness, seeking solace in each other's presence.
Pull down the shade, there's love to be made
Closing off the outside world to focus on the intimacy shared between the two.
Cause I want you when you touch me that way,
Expressing a strong desire for your partner's touch, a reason to postpone goodbyes.
So I'll just put off saying goodbye for another day
Choosing to delay farewells because of the unique way your partner makes you feel.
No one else makes me feel this way
Acknowledging that no one else elicits the same emotions, reinforcing the reluctance to say goodbye.
So I'll just put off saying goodbye for another day
Repeating the decision to postpone goodbyes, emphasizing the difficulty in parting ways.
