Goin' Out of My Head
Love's Silent Struggle: Goin' Out of My Head by Nancy Wilson
Lyrics
Well, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Expressing a feeling of losing control or composure.
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Reiteration of the sense of losing control or composure.
Over you, Over you
Attributing the emotional turmoil to someone specific.
I want you to want me, I need you so badly
Expressing a desire for reciprocation, a deep need for the person.
I can't think of anything but you
Complete preoccupation with thoughts of the person.
And I think I'm goin' out of my head
Reiteration of the escalating emotional turmoil.
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Continued expression of losing control or composure.
Over you, Over you
Repeating the attribution of emotional turmoil to the specific person.
I see you each morning
Observing the person daily but feeling unnoticed and unacknowledged.
But you just walk past me You don't even know that I exist
Expressing a sense of being ignored or overlooked by the person.
Goin' out of my head over you
Intensifying emotions, feeling overwhelmed by thoughts of the person.
Out of my head over you Out of my head day and night
Repeating the overwhelming feelings both day and night.
Night and day and night, Wrong or right
Continued expression of emotional intensity regardless of circumstances.
I must think of a way Into your heart
Expressing a desire to find a way into the person's heart.
There's no reason why My being shy Should keep us apart
Challenging the idea that shyness should be a barrier to connection.
And I think I'm goin' out of my head
Reiteration of the overwhelming emotional state.
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Continued expression of losing control or composure.
Goin' out of my head over you
Reiterating the intensity of emotions directed towards the person.
Out of my head over you Out of my head day and night
Repeating the overwhelming feelings both day and night.
Night and day and night, Wrong or right
Continued expression of emotional intensity regardless of circumstances.
Night and day and night
Further emphasis on the persistent emotional state.
Wrong or right, day or night
Reiterating emotional intensity, emphasizing its constant nature.
Everyday, every, every day
Stressing the daily recurrence of overwhelming emotions.
