Like I Want To
Unspoken Longings: Deciphering June Rosewell's 'Like I Want To'
Lyrics
We hardly spoke
We had little communication or conversation.
Sat down across the table
We sat facing each other at a table.
Eyes fixed on the empty plate
Your gaze was fixed on an empty plate, suggesting emptiness or dissatisfaction.
Will I ever be able
Questioning the possibility of future emotional fulfillment.
To love you like I want to
Expressing a desire to love profoundly.
Love you like I want to
Reiteration of the desire to love deeply.
Love you like I want to
Continuing the expression of the longing for a deep, fulfilling love.
Love you like
Fragmented repetition of the desire to love deeply.
Laid down to rest
Resting, perhaps symbolizing contemplation or reflection.
But you couldn't quit it
You were unable to quit or end something.
Sunken irresolute
Feeling sunken and indecisive.
How can I commit
Questioning the ability to make a commitment.
To love you like I want to
Reiterating the desire to love deeply despite challenges.
Love you like I want to
Continuing to express the longing for profound love.
Love you like I want to
Repeated expression of the desire for deep, meaningful love.
Love you like
Fragmented repetition of the longing for profound love.
Was it such a rough day
Reflecting on whether the day was difficult or challenging.
How can I be okay
Questioning how one can be okay after a tough day.
Was it such a rough day
Repetition of the inquiry about the difficulty of the day.
How can I be okay
Reiteration of questioning emotional well-being after a challenging day.
How can I be okay
Repeated questioning of one's emotional state.
How can I be okay
Continued repetition of the inquiry into emotional well-being.
How can I be okay
Further repetition of questioning one's emotional state.
How can I
Fragmented query about how one can be okay emotionally.
Love you like I want to
Reiterating the desire to love deeply despite challenges.
Love you like I want to
Continuing to express the longing for profound love.
Love you like I want to
Repeated expression of the desire for deep, meaningful love.
Love you like
Fragmented repetition of the longing for profound love.
Love you like I want to
Reiterating the desire to love deeply despite challenges.
Love you like I want to
Continuing to express the longing for profound love.
Love you like I want to
Repeated expression of the desire for deep, meaningful love.
Love you like
Fragmented repetition of the longing for profound love.
