I'm Depending On You
Relying on Love: Otis Redding's Last Plea
Lyrics
I'm depending on you
Expresses reliance and trust in someone.
Everything that you do
Emphasizes that various actions and decisions are crucial.
I'm depending on you
Reiterates the dependence on the person.
To see me through
Needs support to navigate a challenging situation.
You know that I love you
Confirms love for the person being depended upon.
And there is nothing I can do
Despite love, unable to change the situation alone.
But depend on you
Emphasizes the reliance solely on the person.
I'm depending on you
Repeated expression of dependence.
This is our last chance
Highlights the critical nature of the current opportunity.
And I'm depending on you
Reaffirms the reliance in this crucial moment.
To try to save our romance
Requests effort to salvage the relationship.
Because you're the only girl
Highlights a deep understanding of the person.
That I understand
Confirms comprehension of the partner's feelings.
When you tell me I'm your man
Seeking reassurance and commitment.
Promise me that you will never leave me
Requesting a promise of commitment and fidelity.
Promise me that you will never say goodbye
Seeking assurance of enduring affection.
Promise me that you will never break my heart
Asking to avoid causing emotional pain.
And now you're making me cry
Expresses emotional distress due to the situation.
I'm depending on you
Repeats reliance on the person.
This is our last chance
Reiterates the urgency of the situation.
I'm depending on you
Emphasizes dependence to salvage the relationship.
Just to try to save our romance
Reaffirms the need to work on the relationship.
Because you're the only girl
Recognizes unique understanding and connection.
That I understand
Requests confirmation of being a significant other.
Honey, tell me I'm your man
Seeking affirmation of being the chosen partner.
