I Want You
Embracing the Unconventional: A Song of Desire and Defiance by Michael Frazer
Lyrics
I don't care if the sun don't shine
I am indifferent to external circumstances, even if the sun doesn't shine.
I'll take a full moon any time
I prefer a full moon at any time, suggesting a flexible and unconventional outlook.
It won't burn or make me blind
Emphasizing that love is not harmful or blinding.
I don't care if your head is cracked
Expressing acceptance even if someone is emotionally or mentally distressed.
And you can't put all the pieces back
Understanding that some things can't be fixed, acknowledging imperfections.
I stare at you cause I want you
Intense gaze is a reflection of desire towards the person being addressed.
And I want you to know
Wanting the person to be aware of the feelings being experienced.
We go fast or we go slow
Indicating readiness for varying paces in the relationship.
I don't know what you need but I want you
Expressing desire without a clear understanding of the partner's needs.
I don't care if you think I'm strange
Indifference to societal judgment regarding perceived strangeness.
Standing up on the firing range
Mentioning a risky situation, possibly metaphorical, and questioning the impact on the relationship.
Would you miss me anyway
Pondering the significance of one's absence and its effect on the other person.
I don't care if the odds are stacked
Accepting challenges or unfavorable odds in pursuit of the desired relationship.
And I don't get my money back
Financial loss is inconsequential compared to the desire for the person.
I'll take a chance cause I want you
Willingness to take risks because of the strong desire for the person.
And I want you to know
Reiterating the importance of the other person being aware of the depth of feelings.
We go fast or we go slow
Highlighting the variable nature of the relationship's pace.
I don't know what you need but I want you
Expressing desire without a clear understanding of what the partner needs.
I don't care if they don't approve
Indifference to external approval for the relationship.
I don't care if hell gets loose
Not concerned even if things become chaotic or difficult.
Heaven is overrated
Downplaying the significance of conventional ideas about paradise.
I don't care if we lose the light
Unfazed by potential challenges or dark times in the relationship.
It won't keep me awake at night
Assuring that challenges won't disturb one's peace at night.
Not hard to see that I want you
Clearly expressing a strong desire for the person.
And I want you to know
Reiterating the importance of the other person being aware of the depth of feelings.
We go fast or we go slow
Highlighting the variable nature of the relationship's pace.
I don't know what you need me to be
Uncertainty about the role or identity the person needs in the relationship.
And I want you to know
Reiterating the importance of the other person being aware of the depth of feelings.
We go fast or we go slow
Highlighting the variable nature of the relationship's pace.
I don't know what you need But I want you
Uncertainty about the role or identity the person needs in the relationship.
