Close to Cathy
Unrequited Melodies: Yearning for Love in 'Close to Cathy'
Lyrics
I'm so close to Cathy
I have a close relationship or proximity to Cathy.
I know just what she's dreamin' of
I understand the desires or aspirations that Cathy has.
She always calls me up to tell me
Cathy frequently contacts me to share her experiences.
Every time she falls in love
She informs me every time she falls in love with someone.
Oh, I'm so close to Cathy
Reiteration of the closeness or intimacy with Cathy.
I know her every tender sigh
I am familiar with her every gentle or affectionate expression.
She loves to cry upon my shoulder
Cathy seeks comfort by crying on my shoulder, especially over other men.
Always for some other guy
She consistently experiences emotional distress related to other guys.
Oh, why can't she see
Expressing frustration or sadness that Cathy doesn't recognize the speaker as her true and enduring love.
The one true, lasting love in her life should be me?
Contemplating why Cathy can't realize that the speaker is the one who can offer true and lasting love.
I'm so close to Cathy
Reiteration of the proximity or closeness to Cathy.
As close as anyone can be
Claiming to be as close to Cathy as anyone can be.
And I'll stay close to Cathy
Committing to maintaining closeness to Cathy.
Hoping some day she'll feel close to me
Expressing hope that Cathy will reciprocate and feel close to the speaker someday.
I'm so close to Cathy
Reiteration of the proximity or closeness to Cathy.
As close as anyone can be
Claiming to be as close to Cathy as anyone can be (repeated).
And I'll stay close to Cathy
Committing to maintaining closeness to Cathy (repeated).
Hoping some day she'll feel close to me
Expressing hope that Cathy will reciprocate and feel close to the speaker someday (repeated).
