Come Down to Me
Embracing Imperfections: A Song of Unrequited Love and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Words fall out of my mouth
Expressing difficulty in verbal communication, words spoken without clear intent or control.
And I can't seem to trace what I'm saying
Struggling to comprehend or track one's own speech.
Everybody wants your time
Acknowledging the demand for attention from others in the context of a romantic interest.
I'm just dreaming out loud,
Daydreaming aloud, expressing unfulfilled desires.
I can't have you for mine and I know it
Yearning for someone unattainable and recognizing the impossibility of a relationship.
I just wanna watch you shine
Expressing admiration and a desire to witness the person's success or happiness.
Tripping up on my tongue,
Stumbling over words due to nervousness or excitement.
It's all over my face and I'm racing
Physical manifestation of emotions, with feelings evident on the face, and a sense of urgency.
Gotta get away from you
Feeling the need to distance oneself from the person of interest.
Burning all the way home,
Intense emotions persisting on the journey home.
Try to put it to bed but it chases
Attempting to suppress emotions, but they continue to pursue and influence thoughts.
Every little thing I do
Every action is colored by thoughts of the person, affecting the speaker's behavior.
When light falls on your face,
Admiring the person in the light, possibly indicating a positive perspective.
Don't let it change you
Encouraging the person not to be changed by external influences, to stay true to themselves.
When the stars get in your eyes,
Warning against being blinded or distracted by external factors, such as fame or attention.
Don't let them blind you
Continuing the caution against losing oneself amid external pressures.
You're beautiful
Affirmation of the person's inherent beauty and worth.
Just the way you are
Expressing love and acceptance for the person as they are.
And I love it all
Celebrating all aspects of the person, including flaws and past experiences.
Every line, and every scar
Expressing acceptance and affection for both positive and negative aspects of the person.
And I wish that I could make you see
Expressing a desire for the person to recognize the speaker's perspective and emotions.
This is where you ought to be,
Stating the ideal location for the person is with the speaker.
Come down to me
Inviting the person to come closer and connect with the speaker.
Spell it out in a song,
Expressing feelings through a song, a creative outlet for emotions.
Bet you never catch on to my weakness
Suggesting that the person may not fully understand the depth of the speaker's emotions.
I'm singing every word for you
Using music as a medium to convey emotions and feelings for the person.
Here I'm thinking I'm sly
Feeling discreet and sly in expressing emotions, only to be noticed by the person.
Then you're catching my eye, and just maybe
Realizing that the person is aware of the speaker's interest and feelings.
You're thinking what I'm thinking too
Suggesting a shared understanding or mutual feelings between the speaker and the person.
When you see it on my face,
Expressing emotions on the face, possibly revealing vulnerability.
Don't let it shake you
Encouraging the person not to be disturbed or affected by the speaker's emotions.
I know better than to try and
Recognizing the futility of trying to take the person away or possess them.
Take you with me
Respecting boundaries and understanding that taking the person forcibly is not an option.
