On Your Shelf
Captivated by Love's Mastery: On Your Shelf
Lyrics
Well I never ever had to worry or want
Feeling content and not lacking anything
Thought I had what I need
Believed to have everything necessary
But for love like yours I'll change the course
Willing to alter one's path for a love like theirs
But sometimes you got me on my knees
Occasionally feeling emotionally vulnerable
Baby an I can't help myself
Unable to resist the overwhelming emotions for their partner
I'm a slave everyday to your love
Feeling deeply committed to their partner, willing to sacrifice
So go on and treat me how you want
Accepting treatment from their partner, regardless of how it is
I'll be on your shelf
Willingness to be passive or reserved for their partner's convenience
Well sometimes the way you pick me up
Experiencing emotional fluctuations due to their partner's actions
And put me down
Feeling emotionally manipulated or tossed around
I'm like a ship on the waves in a storm
Being emotionally turbulent and unstable like a ship in a storm
And I look to see your love light upon the shore
Seeking reassurance and comfort from their partner's love
Shining bright and guiding me home
Feeling guided and secure by their partner's affection
Baby and I can't help myself
Unable to resist being controlled by their partner's love
I'm a slave to the ways of your love
Completely surrendered to the patterns of their partner's love
So go on and do me how you want
Accepting any treatment from their partner
I'll be on your shelf
Willing to remain in a passive or controlled role for their partner's satisfaction
Wrap your arms around me little darling
Desiring affection and offering anything in return
And I'll give you anything that you please
Willingness to fulfill their partner's desires
Yeah I'll go to work, and you can stay home
Being supportive of their partner's choices and activities
And just while along your time by the sea
Hoping for their partner's realization of their worth
Yeah I pray that someday you're gonna realize
Confidence in being the only suitable partner
There's only one for you and that’s me
Assurance of being the best choice for their partner
And I'll never go back up upon that dusty shelf
Commitment to never revert to a neglected state
An I'll be happy as a man can be
Contentment with being deeply in love and committed
Baby an I can't help myself
Feeling trapped by the intensity of their love for their partner
I'm a slave everyday to your love
Completely devoted and bound by their partner's love
So go on and treat me how you want
Acceptance of any treatment from their partner
An I'll be on your shelf
Willingness to be passive or reserved for their partner's convenience
Yeah I cant help myself
Unable to resist the overwhelming emotions for their partner (repeated)
I'm a slave to the ways of your love
Completely surrendered to the patterns of their partner's love (repeated)
So go on and do me just how you want
Accepting any treatment from their partner (repeated)
I'll be on your shelf
Willing to remain in a passive or controlled role for their partner's satisfaction (repeated)
