Release Me Girl
Unraveling Love's Transience: Release Me Tonight
Lyrics
I went runnin' around tryin' to prove I was a lover
I engaged in various activities to prove my capability as a lover.
How was I to know she could up and go with another
Unaware that she could leave and be with someone else.
Woke up this morning I was shiverin' under my covers
I woke up feeling cold and trembling under my bedcovers.
Release me girl tonight
Expressing a desire for the girl to release him tonight.
Things gotta certain quick way of changin'
Life has a tendency to change rapidly.
I know you're taken your turn, it's your turn
Acknowledging that it's now her turn to take control or make decisions.
Once upon a time I thought I could find all the answers
Reflecting on a time when the speaker believed he had all the answers.
I was quick on my feet she was young and so sweet a slow dancer
Describing a quick and sweet romantic connection with a slow dancer.
You know I could make her mine if I'd taken the time to romance her
Regret for not taking the time to romantically pursue and win her over.
Release me girl tonight
Reiterating the desire for the girl to release him tonight.
Things gotta certain quick way of changin'
Emphasizing the unpredictable nature of life's changes.
I know it's only your turn, your turn
Confirming that it's currently her turn to take charge.
Runnin' around town after town to recover
Traveling from place to place in an attempt to recover emotionally.
Everywhere I go I find that there is no other
Realizing that there is no alternative or replacement wherever he goes.
If I ever return do you think we could learn to be lovers?
Contemplating a potential return and the possibility of rekindling love.
Things gotta certain quick way of changin'
Reiterating the unpredictable and swift nature of changes in life.
I know it's only your turn
Affirming that it's still her turn to take control of the situation.
Now you're the one you can turn
Acknowledging a shift where she now has the opportunity to take charge.
Your, your turn
Repeating the idea that it's now her turn to make decisions.
