Lyrics
Lately I've been slowly falling
Lately, I've been experiencing a gradual decline or feeling low emotionally.
And every time I close my eyes I see you again
Whenever I close my eyes, thoughts of you keep reappearing in my mind.
And I'm no good at keeping secrets
I'm not skilled at keeping secrets or hiding my emotions.
And though I try I can't deny the way I'm feeling
Despite my efforts, I can't suppress or deny my emotions and the way I feel.
And I can't take my eyes off you
You capture my attention completely; I can't stop looking at you.
And I just can't hide the truth
I cannot conceal the truth about my feelings.
I want you
I desire you.
And if I'm honest, I'm scared to say it
If I'm being truthful, I'm afraid to admit this desire.
The truth is I am terrified of being broken
I'm genuinely scared of the possibility of emotional pain or being hurt.
But I'll call your number
I will take the initiative to contact you.
And I'll share my mind
I'll open up and share my thoughts with you.
And I'll ask you darling
I'll directly ask you, my dear, if I can be with you.
"Can I make you mine?"
Expressing my desire to establish a relationship with you.
Cause I can't take my eyes off you
Similar to line 5, I'm unable to look away from you.
And I just can't hide the truth
Reiterating the inability to hide feelings or truths about the desire for you.
I want you
Reaffirming the strong desire for you.
Cause I don't need just anything
I'm not seeking just anything; I have specific desires.
No, I don't want just anyone
I don't want just anyone; I desire you specifically.
Every little thing you do
Everything you do intensifies my feelings for you.
Makes my heart want more of you
Your actions make me want a deeper connection with you.
So tell me that you see it, too
I'm seeking validation or confirmation from you about our shared feelings, acknowledging an obvious issue or unspoken tension between us ("the elephant in the room").
The elephant inside this room
Highlighting the presence of a significant and unaddressed issue ("the elephant") between us.
Hey, yeah!
An exclamation or emphasis on the previous lines, possibly expressing frustration or urgency.
Cause I can't take my eyes off you
Reiterating the inability to divert attention from you.
And I just can't hide the truth
Restating the inability to conceal feelings or truths about the desire for you.
Whoa, I want you
A strong declaration of the desire to be with you.
