Put It On A List
Dreams Unveiled: A Love List in Melody
Lyrics
There's a diamond shinin'
Expressing the presence of a sparkling diamond.
In the window of the jewelry store
Observing a diamond in a jewelry store window.
And I'm wishing' it was sittin' on your finger
Wishing the diamond was on a specific person's finger.
But it's a couple carats more than I can afford
Not able to afford a diamond with the desired carat size.
There's a Key West sunset
Describing a Key West sunset on the TV screen.
Glowin' on the TV screen
Highlighting the beauty of the sunset.
An island full of smilin' party people
Imagining an island with happy party people.
Someday that's gonna be you and me
Anticipating a future where the speaker and a significant other enjoy such moments.
Put it on a list of things we're gonna do
Suggesting the creation of a list for future shared activities.
When our ship comes in we'll take it for a cruise
Planning to take a cruise when their fortunes improve.
I won't quit til all your dreams come true
Committing to fulfilling all partner's dreams.
So put it on a list, of ways I'm gonna love on you
Including ways the speaker will express love in the list.
I wanna wake up, laid up
Expressing a desire to wake up next to the significant other.
Beside you in a posh hotel
Envisioning a luxurious setting, a posh hotel.
And feed you breakfast while your head rests on the pillow
Desiring to care for the partner with breakfast in bed.
Something we could never whip up ourselves
Acknowledging the exclusivity of experiences they want to share.
I wanna wine you, dine you
Expressing a desire to treat the partner to fine dining.
And buy you some expensive dress
Intending to purchase an expensive dress for the significant other.
So I can watch as that Versace hits the carpet
Imagining the luxury of watching expensive attire being worn.
Baby, write it down so we don't forget
Emphasizing the importance of noting these desires in a list.
Put it on a list of things we're gonna do
Reiterating the idea of listing future activities.
When our ship comes in we'll take it for a cruise
Planning to take a cruise when they are more financially stable.
I won't quit til all your dreams come true
Reiterating the commitment to realizing all partner's dreams.
So put it on a list, of ways I'm gonna love on you
Stating that expressing love is also part of the planned activities.
Girl, you've never had expensive taste
Acknowledging partner's modest preferences.
And I've never heard you once complain
Highlighting the partner's contentment and lack of complaints.
I just wanna give you everything
Expressing the speaker's desire to provide everything to the partner.
So take everything and...
Encouraging the partner to accept and enjoy everything offered.
