Lyrics
I know you gotta go
I acknowledge that you have to leave.
And there's some shit you gotta do
There are some responsibilities or tasks you need to attend to.
And oh all this talk is bringing me down
All the conversation or discussion is making me feel down.
Oh yeah it's getting late
It's becoming late.
But, all these things weve been saying
Despite the things we've been discussing, it's a repetitive cycle.
It's the same old circle going round
The same issues are recurring.
But, baby don't get up yet
Don't leave just yet.
Don't get up yet
Emphasizing the request to stay seated.
I'm not through
I am not finished with what I want to say.
I'm not through
Reiteration of the statement that the speaker is not done.
And it's always been true
This has always been a fact.
Gravities not my strong suit
Being serious or focused is not my strong point.
And maybe I've gone on a little long
Maybe I've been talking for a long time.
But, if you just give up now
If you give up now, it's equivalent to ending everything.
Get on up and walk on out
Suggesting that leaving now would be giving up.
Might as well just call the whole thing done
If you leave, we might as well consider everything finished.
So baby don't get up yet
Repetition of the request not to leave.
Don't get up yet now
Continuing the plea to stay seated.
I'm not through
Emphasizing again that the speaker is not finished.
I'm not through
Reiteration of the statement that the speaker is not done.
Oh baby don't you get up yet
Once again, urging not to leave.
Don't get up yet now
Continuing the plea not to get up.
Oh baby don't you get up yet
Repeating the request for the listener to stay seated.
Don't get up yet
Reiteration of the plea not to leave.
I'm not through
Reaffirming that the speaker is not finished.
I'm not through
Once again, stating that the speaker is not done.
I'm not through
Repetition to emphasize that the speaker is not finished.
(I know you gotta go
Reiteration of the acknowledgment that the listener has to go.
I know you gotta run
Acknowledging the listener's need to run or leave.
But, babe I'm not done)
Despite your need to go, I'm not finished.
I'm not through
Emphasizing that the speaker is not done.
(I know you gotta go
Reiteration of the acknowledgment that the listener has to go.
I know you gotta run
Acknowledging the listener's need to run or leave.
But, babe I'm not done)
Despite your need to go, I'm not finished.
