When You're Around
Ecstatic Moments and Heartfelt Desires: When You're Around by Not My Weekend
Lyrics
I wanna meet you by the pool
I desire to meet you near the pool.
Buy new clothes so I look cool
I want to purchase new clothes to enhance my appearance.
I wanna kiss you on your face
I wish to kiss you on your face.
And maybe just one other place ;)
Expressing a playful desire for intimacy in another location.
Wanna run my hands through your hair
Expressing a desire to touch and feel your hair.
When I come home I want you there
When I return home, I want you to be there.
And also every other place
Expressing a desire for intimacy in various places.
I wanna hold you so you feel safe
I want to hold you to provide a sense of security.
Cause when I see you
Expressing a positive reaction upon seeing you.
I’m ecstatic
Feeling extremely happy or joyful.
Here’s all that I am
Offering everything that I am to you.
You can have it
Expressing a willingness to give oneself completely.
Cause if you’re a bird
Using metaphorical language, willing to be supportive like wings to a bird.
I’ll be your wings
Symbolizing a commitment to be a support system.
If I’m my voice
Your presence is when I find my voice and express myself.
You’re when I sing
Your existence is linked to my creativity and expression.
If you are tired
Expressing a willingness to provide comfort when you are tired.
I’ll be your bed
Symbolic expression of support and care.
If I’m a guitar
If I am a guitar, you excel in playing or handling me skillfully.
You fucking shred
Using a metaphor to express compatibility and synergy.
Or whatever you call
Indicating uncertainty or casualness about the current activity.
What I’m doing right now
Reiterating the main point – happiness when you're around.
The point is I’m Happy
Emphasizing a state of happiness.
WHEN YOU'RE AROUND
Reinforcing the central theme of happiness in your presence.
You’d be number one in myspace top eight
Expressing a desire for you to be a significant presence in my life.
I wanna see a red heart next to your snapchat name
Expressing a desire for a symbol of affection in digital communication.
Wanna write lyrics about you that hipsters think are lame
Willingness to express feelings for you, even if perceived as cliché.
So far I think I’m doing pretty okay
Feeling content with the progress in expressing feelings.
I shook hands with your boyfriend
Meeting and acknowledging your significant other, possibly with discomfort.
He was pretty annoying
Expressing a negative opinion about the acquaintance with your boyfriend.
And your friends say he’s an abusive dick
Receiving negative feedback about the boyfriend's behavior.
Oh god you know I hate that shit
Expressing discomfort or dislike towards discussions about abusive behavior.
Cause when he sees you
Positive expectations for the boyfriend's reaction upon seeing you.
He should be ecstatic
Desiring the boyfriend to be extremely happy upon seeing you.
He should take all he is
Encouraging the boyfriend to offer everything he is to you.
And let you have it
Expressing a generous attitude towards your happiness.
BUT WAIT ONE GOD DAMN SECOND
Pause or interruption, creating suspense or emphasis.
