Growing on You
Growing On You: Yearning for Affection
Lyrics
My mind's a mess and I'm fucking with your head
Expressing internal chaos and emotional confusion, playing with someone's emotions.
Mr. monogamous, doesn't wanna be my boyfriend
Referring to someone who avoids commitment, unwilling to be in a serious relationship.
But he's getting good at pretending
Indicating the person is becoming skilled at pretending or faking emotions.
These past few days, I can't escape the way that
Feeling a strong desire for approval, seeking validation in the past few days.
I'm craving your approval and I need to hear you say
Expressing the need to hear affirmations and positive statements from the other person.
Let's keep kissing in the kitchen
Describing enjoyable moments in the relationship, expressing a desire for a long-lasting connection.
Love it when we listen to The Smiths and
-You make me wanna do the dishes
-Kinda put forever on my wish list
-Let's keep kissing in the kitchen
Repetition of the desire for a lasting relationship, symbolizing commitment through daily activities.
Love it when we listen to The Smiths and
-You make me wanna do the dishes
-Kinda put forever on my wish list
-Hope I'm growing on you
Using metaphors (like a Trellis or a tide) to express the hope of becoming an integral part of the other person's life.
Like a Trellis for a vine
-Or a tide upon a shore line
-The way that our hands intertwine
-When you're drinking that glass of Wi-i-i-i-i-ine
-Hope I'm growing on you
Reiterating the desire to become important to the other person.
Cus I'm down for you-oh-oh
Asking about the mutual commitment in the relationship.
Are you down for me too?
-I'm down for you-oh-oh
-Are you down for me too?
-We confess that we don't want anyone else
Admitting exclusivity in the relationship but questioning the depth of feelings on the other side.
You're not in love, you just don't wanna give it up
-These past few days, I can't escape the thought that
-I'm Miss Unrequited
-Am I too much? Am I enough?
Expressing insecurity about being either too much or not enough, seeking reassurance.
I just need to hear you say
-Let's keep kissing in the kitchen
Repeating the desire for lasting commitment through shared activities.
Love it when we listen to The Smiths and
-You make me wanna do the dishes
-Kinda put forever on my wish list
-Hope I'm growing on you
Reiterating the metaphorical growth in the relationship, emphasizing the intertwining of hands.
Like a Trellis for a vine
-Or a tide upon a shore line
-The way that our hands intertwine
-When you're drinking that glass of Wi-i-i-i-i-ine
-Hope I'm growing on you
Repeating the hope of becoming significant to the other person.
Cus I'm down for you-oh-oh
Repeating the question about mutual commitment, seeking assurance.
Are you down for me too?
-I'm down for you-oh-oh
-Are you down for me too?
-I'm down for you-oh-oh
Reiterating the commitment and seeking confirmation of reciprocal feelings.
Are you down for me too?
