Lyrics
Here you go, taking your time
Expressing impatience or frustration with someone taking too much time.
But don't you know, you're never giving
Pointing out a lack of reciprocity or effort from the other person.
On and on, you're on my mind
Indicating persistent thoughts about the person.
This is no way for a man to live
Critiquing the current state of the man's life as undesirable.
C'mon don't you know I wanna see you
Reiterating the desire to see the person and emphasizing the importance of listening to the lover.
C'mon don't you know I wanna see you
-And once again don't you know you gotta listen to your lover
-C'mon don't you know I wanna see you
-C'mon don't you know I wanna see you
-And once again don't you know I'll treat you like no other
-I, I can't feel, I can't feel a damn thing
Expressing emotional numbness or detachment.
And baby doll I ain't tryin' to blame you
Clarifying that blame is not the intention but acknowledging a lack of understanding.
But you never understand what I'm trying to say
Highlighting difficulty in conveying a message to the partner.
OK it's your fault fine I'll blame you
Playfully assigning blame to the partner for the communication breakdown.
How did it get this way
Pondering how the situation deteriorated to its current state.
How did it get this way
-And don't you know I wanna see you and that I will treat you like no other
Reiterating the desire to see and treat the person uniquely.
C'mon now wont u listen to your lover c'mon now wont you listen to your oh oh
-You gotta listen to your love, listen to your lover, listen to your love, Listen to your oh oh
Emphasizing the need for the person to listen to their love, promising special treatment.
Listen to your love, listen your lover, c'mon baby I'ma treat you like no other
-Listen to your love, listen to your lover, listen to your love listen to your oh oh
-C'mon now I'll treat you like no other oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Reiterating the commitment to treat the person exceptionally.
