Hold Me Close
Embracing Love's Longing: Hold Me Close by Rebecca Jayne
Lyrics
Turn the light off and put your arms around me
Expressing a desire for intimacy and comfort by turning off the lights and seeking physical closeness.
Been one of those days again
Acknowledging a challenging or difficult day that has been experienced.
Pull me closer and let me feel your skin
Requesting even greater proximity and the sensation of connection through touch.
Been wishing I could touch you for so long
Longing to physically connect with the person, expressing a prolonged desire.
I don’t know how to love you anymore than I do
Stating the depth of love, emphasizing that it cannot be surpassed.
So don’t leave me lonely I got too much to lose
Fearing loneliness and emphasizing the stakes of the relationship.
We’ll watch the dawn break then close your eyes
Imagining a shared moment of watching the dawn together before closing eyes, possibly symbolizing a new beginning.
‘Cos I’m not wasting more time thinking tonight
Deciding not to waste time on unnecessary thoughts and concerns.
Oh I think I’m gonna fall as far as I can go
Anticipating a deep emotional fall and expressing vulnerability.
So hold me close
Requesting emotional and physical closeness in the face of vulnerability.
You can keep me guessing
Encouraging an element of surprise or unpredictability in the relationship.
Just don’t take too long
Asking for timely responses and not wanting to be kept in suspense.
‘Cos I’m trying not to think about the reasons you’d move on
Acknowledging efforts to avoid contemplating reasons for a potential breakup.
Oh ‘cos I really don’t deserve you
Expressing a sense of unworthiness in the relationship.
We’ll watch the dawn break then close your eyes
Repeating the idea of shared moments, possibly as a source of solace or connection.
‘Cos I’m not wasting more time thinking tonight
Reiterating the decision not to dwell on unnecessary thoughts and worries.
Oh I think I’m gonna fall as far as I can go
Reiterating the anticipation of a deep emotional fall and expressing vulnerability.
So hold me close
Reiterating the need for close connection and comfort in the face of vulnerability.
Turn the light off and put your arms around me
Repeating the desire for intimacy and comfort through physical closeness.
Been one of those days again
Reiterating the acknowledgment of a challenging or difficult day.
Pull me closer and let me feel your skin
Repeating the request for greater proximity and connection through touch.
Been wishing I could touch you for so long
Reiterating the longing for physical connection with the person.
