Gin and Platonic
Love Unclaimed: The Dance of Desire in Gin and Platonic
Lyrics
Since we've been together
Expressing the duration of the relationship
You've been holding out on me
Perceiving a sense of withholding or secrecy
My dear, you've made it clear
Acknowledging a clear indication of reluctance or fear
This wicked fear of loving me
Describing a fear of love and its potential consequences
Well, I'm not out to get you
Denying any malicious intentions
One heart can't beat for two
Stating the limitation of one heart in a romantic context
But must I hide forever this love I feel for you
Questioning the need to hide the genuine love felt
I wanna writhe in muddy water
Expressing a desire for passion and intensity
As I feel your lips on mine
Describing a physical and emotional connection
Baby, you're my one desire
Affirming a strong romantic attraction
Let your tired mind unwind
Encouraging relaxation and letting go
I wanna feel your arms around me
Expressing a desire for closeness and intimacy
Why can't you feel it too
Expressing a wish for mutual emotional connection
What will it take to make you
Pleading for reciprocation of feelings
Feel the same way I do
Questioning what it takes for the other person to feel the same
We go together like gin and platonic
Comparing the compatibility to "gin and platonic"
Just like a hotrod with a million miles on it
Highlighting a durable and well-traveled connection
But you're the one man that's got the key
Indicating a unique and essential role of the partner
Baby won't you stake a claim on me
Inviting the partner to commit to the relationship
Be my Valentino, Romeo, or Jimmy Dean
Listing iconic romantic figures, expressing a desire for similar passion
A pair of reckless lovers up on that silver screen
Referencing reckless lovers on screen as a comparison
I've given every indication but you ain't got a clue
Communicating clear signals despite the partner's obliviousness
Indulge my fascination love me madly like I love you
Asking for reciprocation and intense love
We go together like gin and platonic
Reiterating the compatibility with "gin and platonic"
Just like a hotrod with a million miles on it
Re-emphasizing the enduring and well-traveled nature of the connection
But you're the one man that's got the key
Reiterating the partner's unique role and importance
Baby won't you stake a claim on me
Renewing the invitation for commitment
We go together like gin and platonic
Repeating the comparison to "gin and platonic"
Just like a hotrod with a million miles on it
Reaffirming the durability and mileage of the relationship
But you're the one man that's got the key
Reiterating the partner's key role in the connection
Baby won't you stake a claim on me
Reiterating the invitation for the partner to claim the relationship
