Lyrics
It’s a boldfaced lie that you told me
Expressing skepticism about a straightforward lie received
But I don’t really care
Indifference towards the lie, indicating a lack of concern
Been waiting my whole life wasted lonely
Reflecting on a life spent waiting and feeling lonely
I’m lost in your stare
Feeling captivated and entranced by someone's gaze
Come a little closer
Invitation to come closer, suggesting a desire for intimacy
Take my heart over
Willingness to surrender one's heart to the other person
I don’t wanna be alone tonite
Expressing a reluctance to be alone tonight
Come a little closer
Reiteration of the desire for proximity and connection
So I can lean over
Expressing a wish for physical closeness
Stay with me until the morning light
Request to stay together until the morning
Girl your heart’s got teeth and I’m wondering
Metaphorical description of the person's heart having 'teeth'
What’s on the other side
Curiosity about the mysterious aspects of the person's character
I’ve seen the boys you’ve crossed and it’s somethin
Awareness of the challenges or consequences faced by others involved with the person
They barely make it alive
Observation that others struggle in their relationship with the person
Come a little closer
Reiteration of the desire for closeness and emotional connection
Take my heart over
Expression of a willingness to give one's heart to the other person
I don’t wanna be alone tonite
Reiteration of the aversion to being alone tonight
Come a little closer
Repeat of the invitation for physical closeness
So I can lean over
Repetition of the desire for close physical proximity
Stay with me until the morning light
Request to stay together until the morning light
Take it easy on me
Request for the other person to be gentle or considerate
I know that you’re on the loose
Acknowledgment of the other person's freedom or unpredictability
Take it easy on me
Repeat of the plea for gentleness, acknowledging vulnerability
Cause you could break me in two
Acknowledgment of the potential to be emotionally hurt or broken
Come a little closer
Reiteration of the desire for intimacy and emotional connection
Take my heart over
Expression of a willingness to surrender one's heart
I don’t wanna be alone tonite
Reiteration of the aversion to being alone tonight
Come a little closer
Repeat of the invitation for physical closeness
So I can lean over
Repetition of the desire for close physical proximity
Stay with me until the morning light
Request to stay together until the morning light
