I'll Make You Mine
Capturing Longing: I'll Make You Mine by Joanna Sternberg
Lyrics
I'll make you mine,
I am determined to make you my own.
I'll make you mine
Reiteration of the desire to make you mine.
I'll make you mine,
Emphasis on the commitment to make you mine.
Though it will take time,
Although it will require time.
Time that I have lost
Referring to the time lost in the past.
I'll make you mine
Reaffirmation of the determination to make you mine.
I'll make you mine.
Reiteration of the commitment to make you mine.
You haunt me so,
You occupy my thoughts intensely.
I can't let go
I find it challenging to detach from you.
If I can't have you, then what will I do
If I cannot be with you, I face uncertainty about what to do.
For the memory of you clings to me.
The memory of you strongly lingers in my mind.
I'll make you mine
Reiteration of the determination to make you mine.
I'll make you mine.
Reaffirmation of the commitment to make you mine.
Wake up, wake up, wake up
A call to wake up, possibly from a dream, emphasizing the longing for the person.
I've been dreaming forever of you.
Expressing the duration of longing or yearning for the person.
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Repetition of the plea to wake up, indicating a strong desire for connection.
There is nothing else I can do.
Feeling helpless, as there seems to be no alternative course of action.
I'll make you mine.
Reiteration of the determination to make you mine.
Don't tell me lies
Expressing dislike for deceit and insincerity.
I hate your eyes
Strong aversion to the other person's eyes.
When I look away, then you always say
When avoiding eye contact, the other person insists on needing the speaker.
How you need me, but I don't see
The speaker is unconvinced of the other person's need for them.
I'll make you mine
Reiteration of the determination to make you mine.
I'll make you mine.
Reaffirmation of the commitment to make you mine.
Wake up, wake up, wake up
A repetition of the plea to wake up, emphasizing the persistent dreams of the person.
I've been dreaming forever of you
Highlighting the enduring nature of the dreams about the person.
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Repetition of the plea to wake up, signifying a sense of urgency or desperation.
There is nothing else I can do.
Expressing a feeling of being limited in options or actions.
I'll make you mine
Reiteration of the determination to make you mine.
I'll make you mine
Reaffirmation of the commitment to make you mine.
I'll make you mine.
Final restatement of the determination to make you mine.
