Here You Come Again
Captivated Again: A Melodic Dance with Heartstrings
Lyrics
Here you come again,
Expressing the arrival of someone, possibly an ex-lover or a significant person.
just when I've begun to get myself together,
Reflecting on the effort to gather oneself emotionally or mentally.
you waltz right in the door,
Describing the sudden entrance of the person into the narrator's life.
just like you've done before
Highlighting a recurring pattern of the person re-entering the narrator's life.
and wrap my heart 'round your little finger.
Indicating vulnerability and emotional attachment to the person.
Here you come again,
Reiterating the surprise and disruption caused by the person's return.
just when I'm about to make it work without you,
Expressing the attempt to move on without the person's presence.
you look into my eyes and lie those pretty lies
Describing the person's use of deceitful words and the impact on the narrator.
and pretty soon I'm wond'rin how I came to doubt you.
Reflecting on the confusion and self-doubt created by the person's actions.
All you gotta do is smile that smile
Noting the power of the person's smile in breaking down the narrator's defenses.
and there go all my defenses.
Stating the vulnerability and lack of resistance when faced with the person's charm.
Just leave it up to you and in a little while
Emphasizing the influence of the person on the narrator's thoughts over time.
you're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses.
Describing the impact of the person on the narrator's emotions and senses.
Here you come again lookin' better than a body has a right to;
Complimenting the person's appearance and acknowledging its effect on the narrator.
and shakin' me up so that all I really know
Expressing the disorientation caused by the person's presence.
is here you come again and here I go.
Acknowledging the cyclical nature of the narrator's reactions to the person.
All you gotta do is smile that smile
Repeating the impact of the person's smile on the narrator's defenses.
and there got all my defenses.
Reiterating the ease with which the person affects the narrator's emotional state.
Just leave it up to you and in a little while
Highlighting the gradual process of the person influencing the narrator's mind.
you're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses.
Emphasizing the person's role in overwhelming the narrator's thoughts and senses.
Here you come again lookin' better than a body has a right to;
Continuing to praise the person's appearance and its impact on the narrator.
and shakin' me up so that all I really know
Repeating the disorienting effect of the person's presence on the narrator.
is here you come again and here I go and here I go
Concluding with the recognition of the recurring cycle of the narrator's reactions.
