Do Nothin' Till You Hear from Me
Silent Echoes of Love: Unraveling the Tale in 'Do Nothin' Till You Hear from Me'
Lyrics
Someone told someone and someone told me
Information passed through a chain of people
But they wouldn't hurt you, not much
Assurance that the information won't cause harm
Since everyone spreads the story
Rumor or story being spread by everyone
With his own little personal touch
Each person adds their own details to the story
Do nothin' till you hear from me
Advice to refrain from action until receiving direct communication
Pay no attention to what's said
Ignore gossip or hearsay
Why people tear the thread of anyone's dream
Curiosity about why people damage others' dreams
Is over my head
Difficulty in understanding the motives behind spreading rumors
Do nothin' till you hear from me
Reiteration to wait for direct communication
At least consider our romance
Request to at least consider the relationship before believing others
If you should take the word of others you've heard
Concern that trusting others' words might ruin chances
I haven't a chance
Expressing lack of opportunity due to others' influence
True, I've been seen with someone new
Admission of being seen with a different person
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
Questioning whether being seen with someone means disloyalty
When we're apart the words in my heart
Feelings expressed when apart from the listener
Reveal how I feel about you
Emotions revealed through absence
Some kiss may cloud my memory
Admitting that a kiss from another might create confusion
And other arms may hold a thrill
Acknowledgment that being in someone else's arms might be exciting
But please do nothin' till you hear it from me
Insistence to wait for direct communication before drawing conclusions
And you never will
Assurance that the message won't come from anyone but the singer
True, I've been seen with someone new
Repeat of being seen with someone else
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
Reiteration of questioning the meaning behind being seen with another
When we're apart the words in my heart
Emphasizing feelings expressed when apart
Reveal how I feel about you
Revealing emotions held for the listener
Some kiss may cloud my memory
Acknowledging the potential impact of a kiss on memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
Recognizing the excitement from being held by another
But please do nothin' till you hear it from me
Emphasizing the need to wait for direct communication
And you never will
Reassurance that the message will only come from the singer
But please do nothin' till you hear it from me
Repeat of the request to wait for direct communication
And you never will
Reiteration that the listener will only hear from the singer
Oh, please do nothin' till you hear it from me
Continued plea to wait for direct communication
And you never will
Reassurance that the message will solely come from the singer
Don't do nothin' you hear
Final emphasis to not act based on hearsay
