Till We Die
Eternal Yearning: Julia Jewel's Anthem of Love and Desire
Lyrics
So misguided
Feeling lost or confused
Young mastermind
A clever and imaginative person at a young age
Undecided
Uncertain or hesitant
Or are you blind
Questioning if the person is oblivious or ignorant
Can’t you focus right on me
Asking for attention and focus
Stop wasting time
Encouraging the person to stop wasting time
Can’t you see what we could be
Pointing out the potential of their relationship
Here’s a quick outline
Providing a brief plan or summary
I just need you to love me
Expressing the need for love
I just need you to want me
Expressing the need for desire
It’s perfect timing
Emphasizing the right moment for love
Love me through the night
Asking for love throughout the night
Love me till we die
Desiring love until death
Take my hands and
Inviting the person to hold hands
They’ll pull you in
Suggesting that hands can captivate
To wonderland
Referring to a fantastical place of joy
Where the fun begins
Indicating the beginning of enjoyable experiences
Stop thinking about her
Advising to stop thinking about someone else
I’m here she’s not
Asserting the singer's presence and availability
And I know that this may hurt
Acknowledging potential pain but urging exploration
But come see what I’ve got
Encouraging the person to discover what the singer offers
I just need you to love me
Expressing the need for love, repeated from line 9
I just need you to want me
Expressing the need for desire, repeated from line 10
It’s perfect timing
Reiterating the right moment for love, repeated from line 11
Love me through the night
Asking for love throughout the night, repeated from line 12
Love me till we die
Desiring love until death, repeated from line 13
The power’s laying in my hands
Claiming control or influence
I’ll pull if I want to
Expressing the ability to control the relationship
I know that I could be your sweetheart
Stating the intention not to mistreat the person
I’d never abuse you
Reassuring the person of good intentions
Oh can’t you see what I’m saying
Emphasizing a message or declaration
Oh just take my hands and
Repeatedly urging the person to take the singer's hands
Oh just take my hands and we’ll dance till the night ends
Encouraging dancing together until the night ends
Dance till the night ends
Reiterating the idea of dancing until the night concludes
Love me
Repeating the need for love
Want me
Repeating the need for desire
It’s perfect timing
Reiterating the right moment for love
Love me through the night
Asking for love throughout the night, repeated from line 25
Love me till we die
Desiring love until death, repeated from line 26
I just need you to love me
Expressing the need for love, repeated from line 22
I just need you to want me
Expressing the need for desire, repeated from line 23
It’s perfect timing
Reiterating the right moment for love, repeated from line 24
Love me through the night
Asking for love throughout the night, repeated from line 25
Love me till we die
Desiring love until death, repeated from line 26
