You Get What You Want
Yearning Unfulfilled: Julian Lennon's Quest for Desires
Lyrics
I know what I want
I have a clear understanding of my desires
Can't get it now
Unable to attain what I want at this moment
She knows what I want
She is aware of my desires
Can't get it now
Similar to line 2, she can't fulfill my desires now
Well, she's packed her bag, she's home tonight
She has packed her belongings and is at home tonight
You better hope that she don't miss the flight
There is a concern about her missing the flight
You know what I need
I am aware of what I require
I need it now
In need of it urgently
She knows what I need
She is aware of what I need
We'll share it now
We will share those needs now
Well, my baby's comin' home tonight
Anticipation of my partner coming home tonight
I better hope that she's gonna be all right
Hope for her well-being upon her return
We know what we need
We both understand our requirements
We'll get it now
Determined to obtain it immediately
We'll get together
Planning to get together and demonstrate how
And show ya how
Showcasing the way to fulfill those needs
Well, they say she's not the type for me
Others suggest she is not suitable for me
What do they know? I know me
Rejecting external opinions, I understand myself
I know what I want
Reiteration of knowing what I want
Can't get it now
Still unable to attain my desires currently
She knows what I want
Reiteration of her awareness of my desires
Can't get it now
Similar to line 23, she can't fulfill my desires now
Well, she's packed her bag, she's home tonight
Reiteration of her being at home tonight
You better hope that she don't miss the flight
Reiteration of concern about her missing the flight
You know what I need
Reiteration of being aware of what I need
I need it now
Reiteration of the urgent need for it
She knows what I need
Reiteration of her awareness of what I need
We'll share it now
Reiteration of the intention to share those needs
Well, my baby's comin' home tonight
Reiteration of anticipation of my partner coming home
I better hope that she's gonna be all right
Reiteration of hope for her well-being upon return
We know what we need
Reiteration of mutual understanding of our requirements
We'll get it now
Reiteration of determination to obtain it immediately
We'll get together
Reiteration of the plan to get together and demonstrate how
And show ya how
Reiteration of showcasing the way to fulfill those needs
Well, they say she's not the type for me
Reiteration of others suggesting she is not suitable for me
What do they know? I know me
Reiteration of rejecting external opinions, self-awareness
Do do do do do. Do do do do do do do do do.
