MISSINGU
Yearning Echoes: Embracing Love Amid Wasted Time
Lyrics
All of that wasted time that I can't spend
All the time I've wasted that I cannot use
I wish I spent it on you, I wish I spent it on you!
Expressing a desire to have spent that time on the person being addressed
You working nine to five you can't blame me
Acknowledging the person's nine-to-five job and suggesting it's a reason for their absence
For missing you, missing you!
Expressing a feeling of missing the person
Oh, because you know that I get so crazy
Emphasizing the intensity of emotions, particularly feeling crazy
My cheeks get redder when you call me baby
Describing physical reactions (blushing) when addressed affectionately
My heart stops beating when you leave me hanging
Expressing deep emotional impact when the person departs
All I want is for you to say it
Desiring verbal affirmation or commitment from the person
Because you know that I get so crazy
Reiterating the intense emotions and reactions experienced
My cheeks get redder when you call me baby
Repeating the physical reactions to being called "baby"
My heart stops beating when you leave me hanging
Expressing emotional distress when the person leaves abruptly
All I want is for you to say it
Reiterating the desire for the person to express their feelings
Yeah all I want is for you to say it
Repeated emphasis on the desire for verbal affirmation
All I want is for you to say it
-All I want is for you to say it
-All I want is for you to say!
Summarizing the main desire: for the person to express their feelings
Don't tell me that we can't be lovers
Rejecting the idea that they cannot be lovers
Took a chance but I'm just so stubborn
Acknowledging taking a risk but asserting stubbornness
Last night we were sharing covers, making out to Stevie Wonder
Recalling an intimate moment shared, listening to Stevie Wonder
Did some things we won't tell our mothers, spent the night when the weather got rougher
Describing undisclosed activities during challenging times
I'm thinking like, I'm thinking like
Expressing uncertainty or contemplation about love
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe I love her!
Possibly expressing love despite uncertainty
Because you know that I get so crazy
Repetition of earlier themes: intense emotions, physical reactions, and the desire for verbal affirmation
My cheeks get redder when you call me baby
-My heart stops beating when you leave me hanging
-All I want is for you to say it
-Because you know that I get so crazy
-My cheeks get redder when you call me baby
-My heart stops beating when you leave me hanging
-All I want is for you to say it
-Yeah all I want is for you to say it
-All I want is for you to say it
-All I want is for you to say it
-All I want is for you to say!
Reiterating the central theme: the longing for the person to express their feelings
