Feelings In The Way
Navigating Love's Depths: Feelings In The Way by Karim Panzetta
Lyrics
Let's not make this complicated
Expressing a desire for simplicity in the relationship.
I accept that you only care about the hype
Acknowledging the focus on external attention and popularity.
You never swam past the shallow water
Criticizing a tendency to stay in the surface-level aspects of a connection.
And we're getting deep
Suggesting a transition into a more profound level of the relationship.
Baby, you know I really want ya
Expressing a genuine desire for the person.
Oh yeah, don't ya
Reinforcing the desire and seeking affirmation.
I bet all I'll have on ya
Confidently betting on the speaker's investment in the relationship.
Won't lose it all, nah
Assuring that the commitment won't be entirely lost.
You put nothing in
Noting the partner's lack of contribution.
But you won't bet on us at all
Expressing doubt about the partner's commitment.
Don't see no one else
Claiming exclusivity in the speaker's perspective.
Girl, when I'm with you, though
Highlighting the positive experience when together.
You're weighing your options
Observing the partner considering alternatives.
I'd give you the world
Offering a metaphorical promise of the world for the partner.
But is it enough to keep us both honest
Questioning if the speaker's efforts are sufficient for honesty in the relationship.
Don't put your feelings in the way
Advising against letting emotions hinder the relationship.
I'm not complaining, cause no love's perfect
Acknowledging imperfections in love without complaints.
I'm just saying
Clarifying the intention behind the statements.
Follow your emotions, cause you got standards
Encouraging the partner to follow their feelings and standards.
But I'm no hero, I'm just human
Humbling oneself, acknowledging human flaws, not claiming heroism.
Can you see me as I am
Asking for acceptance of the speaker's true self.
Baby, you know I really want ya
Reiterating the genuine desire for the person.
Oh yeah, don't ya
