Say Love
Unspoken Longings: Natasha Leáh's Plea for True Affection
Lyrics
This is us at our best, and at our worst
This is a representation of our relationship in both its best and worst moments.
And when we speak, does it feel unrehearsed?
Questioning whether our conversations feel spontaneous and genuine.
Cause where I wanna be is far apart
Expressing a desire to be distant from the current situation.
From where we are, from where we are
Emphasizing the current emotional distance between us.
And I thought I found the place where we could start
Believed to have found a starting point for improvement.
Talk from the heart, talk from the heart
Encouraging open and sincere communication.
But you just say I'm perfect
Noted compliments but seeking deeper, meaningful expressions.
Say I'm pretty
Desire for acknowledgment beyond physical appearance.
Say I'm worth it
Seeking affirmation of personal value.
But if you really care for me
Conditional on genuine care, suggesting a need for sincerity.
Say love
Expressing a desire to hear the word "love" from the partner.
I want you to say love
Reiterating the desire for verbal confirmation of love.
I want you to say love
Emphasizing the importance of hearing the word "love."
When I say ""love you""
Referencing the common expression "love you" and the desire for a reciprocal declaration.
You just say ""me too""
Noted pattern of receiving a casual response ("me too") instead of an explicit declaration.
But I want you to say love
Reiterating the longing for a direct expression of love.
It feels like we can't get out of first
Feeling stuck in an early stage of the relationship, unable to progress.
When we do it's like we're stuck in reverse, oh
When progress occurs, it feels regressive or unproductive.
Cause where I wanna be is far apart
Repeating the desire to be distanced from the current state of the relationship.
From where we are, from where we are
Highlighting the emotional gap that needs to be bridged.
And I thought I found the place where we could start
Previously thought there was a promising starting point for improvement.
Talk from the heart, talk from the heart
Encouraging genuine and heartfelt communication.
But you just say I'm perfect
Receiving compliments without the depth of emotional connection sought.
Say I'm pretty
Desiring acknowledgment beyond physical appearance.
Say I'm worth it
Seeking affirmation of personal worth beyond superficial qualities.
But if you really care for me
Conditional on genuine care, indicating a need for sincerity.
Say love
Reiterating the desire to hear the word "love" from the partner.
I want you to say love
Expressing the longing for verbal confirmation of love.
I want you to say love
Emphasizing the importance of hearing the word "love."
When I say ""love you""
Referencing the common expression "love you" and the desire for a reciprocal declaration.
You just say ""me too""
Noted pattern of receiving a casual response ("me too") instead of an explicit declaration.
But I want you to say love
Reiterating the longing for a direct expression of love.
But you just say I'm perfect
Receiving compliments without the depth of emotional connection sought.
Say I'm pretty
Desiring acknowledgment beyond physical appearance.
Say I'm worth it
Seeking affirmation of personal worth beyond superficial qualities.
But if you really care for me
Conditional on genuine care, indicating a need for sincerity.
Say love
Reiterating the desire to hear the word "love" from the partner.
I want you to say love
Expressing the longing for verbal confirmation of love.
I want you to say love
Emphasizing the importance of hearing the word "love."
When I say ""love you""
Referencing the common expression "love you" and the desire for a reciprocal declaration.
You just say ""me too""
Noted pattern of receiving a casual response ("me too") instead of an explicit declaration.
But I want you to say love
Reiterating the longing for a direct expression of love.
