Lyrics
Let's not get too close now
Expressing a desire to maintain some distance or boundaries
Let's not get too close now
Reiteration of the desire to maintain distance
Let's not get too close now
Continued emphasis on keeping a distance
Let's not get too close now
Repeated emphasis on not becoming too emotionally or physically close
(Yeah, yeah)
Expression of agreement or affirmation
You want me for yourself
Recognition of someone's desire to possess the speaker exclusively
(It's been a long time)
Indication of a significant amount of time having passed since a meaningful conversation
Since we talked about anything
Implying that the relationship or connection has been neglected and left unattended
So its off the shelf
Suggesting that the relationship is no longer a priority and has been discarded
And all I've got to say is this
Direct statement indicating a desire for distance or separation
Get away from me
Repetition of the desire for distance, a request to be left alone
Get away from me
Repeated plea to be distanced or left alone
It's over
Explicit statement indicating the end of something, possibly the relationship
Just leave me be
Request to be allowed space or independence
Just leave me be
Reiteration of the request for space or independence
We've gotten too close
Recognition that the closeness has reached an uncomfortable or unwanted level
Let's not get too close now
Reiteration of the desire to maintain distance or boundaries
Let's not get too close now
Repetition of the wish to avoid getting too close
Let's not get too close now
Continued emphasis on the importance of keeping distance
Let's not get too close now
Repeated emphasis on not becoming too emotionally or physically close
(Yeah, yeah)
Expression of agreement or affirmation
Let's not get too close now
Further emphasis on the desire to maintain distance or boundaries
Let's not get too close now
Continued emphasis on not getting too close emotionally or physically
Let's not get too close now
Reiteration of the wish to avoid becoming too close
Let's not get too close now
Repeated emphasis on maintaining a certain level of distance or separation
(Yeah, yeah)
Expression of agreement or affirmation
