Lyrics
Introducing, drumroll, please
Introducing, building anticipation
(uh huh, uh huh)
Confirmation or agreement expression
You visited in my dreams last night babe
Reference to a dream where the person visited
You stole all of my cigarettes
Symbolic action of taking away something valuable
You ain't smoke 'em you just stood there and you watched me as you
Observing without participating actively
Tossed 'em out over my head
Rejecting or discarding possessions
Don't you stand there giving me those sad eyes, now
Expressing discontent with a pleading look
Puppy boy, it's just not fair
Describing someone as submissive or vulnerable
Don't you dare put your hands on me like that
Warning against inappropriate physical contact
And I won't tangle mine in your hair
Commitment to maintaining personal boundaries
This is dangerous
Acknowledging the risky nature of the situation
We both know just want we want
Acknowledging mutual desires
Isn't what we need
Recognition that desires may not align with needs
Bad things would happen but we knew that from the start
Acknowledgment of anticipated negative consequences
Would it be so detrimental to our mental health if we fell apart?
Questioning the impact of a potential separation on mental well-being
But in the end, I know it's just to fill a void
Admitting that the relationship might be a temporary distraction
We'll still be empty by the time we're full
Expectation that emotional fulfillment won't be achieved
You'll be thinking only of her the whole time
Suspecting thoughts about someone else during the relationship
And I don't know where my mind will go
Uncertainty about the future state of mind
Baby baby baby baby baby
Repetition for emphasis on endearment
Darlin', oh why
Expressing a longing or questioning emotion
Can't we just exist for a while
Desire for a simple existence without complications
Enjoy our time and all our bodies and our minds
Seeking enjoyment of the present moment
Not be carried carried carried by
Desire to avoid being influenced or controlled
By the current affair
Acknowledging the impact of a current situation or relationship
Uh uh uh, mm, mmm
Non-verbal expressions indicating contemplation
Current affair, fair
Reiteration of the impact of the current situation
The current affair
Final emphasis on the ongoing nature of the situation
Hmmm
Reflective expression
By the current, current affair
Reiteration of the impact of the ongoing situation
