What I Need
Yearning Echoes: Love's Quest in Seersucker's Melody
Lyrics
I wish I had the upper hand sometimes
Expressing a desire for more control or advantage in certain situations.
'Cause a diamond in the rough is hard to find
Highlighting the difficulty in finding something valuable amidst imperfections.
I'm building a bridge to you and I
Working to connect with someone emotionally.
But all you seem to do is burn it down
Feeling like efforts to build a connection are consistently sabotaged.
Do you want me?
Asking for confirmation of emotional desire.
It's what I need from you
Expressing a personal necessity for confirmation of desire.
Just to know if you want me as much as I want you
Seeking assurance about mutual feelings.
Do you love me?
Seeking confirmation of love from the other person.
It's what I need from you
Expressing the necessity of knowing about reciprocated love.
Just to know if you love me as much as I love you
Desiring assurance that the other person loves equally.
So comfortable for my restless soul
Describing a sense of comfort despite inner restlessness.
Driving through the night just to have some control baby
Using control-seeking behavior to cope with internal turmoil.
Don't you ever try to change me
Asserting the desire to remain unchanged despite external influences.
So there I was
Recounting a specific moment or experience.
So there you were next to me
Referencing the presence of the other person in that moment.
Do you want me?
Reiterating the need for confirmation of desire.
It's what I need from you
Expressing personal necessity for assurance of mutual desire.
Just to know if you want me as much as I want you
Seeking confirmation of mutual desire.
Do you love me?
Expressing the need for assurance of reciprocated love.
It's what I need from you
Emphasizing the importance of knowing about equal love.
Just to know if you love me as much as I love you
Desiring assurance that love is reciprocal.
And it's easier to call it love
Describing labeling love as an easier option than acknowledging its negative aspects.
Than to call it a disaster
Highlighting the preference for framing feelings positively rather than acknowledging difficulties.
Do you want me?
Reiterating the need for confirmation of desire.
It's what I need from you
Expressing personal necessity for assurance of mutual desire.
Just to know if you want me as much as I want you
Seeking confirmation of mutual desire.
Do you love me?
Expressing the need for assurance of reciprocated love.
It's what I need from you
Emphasizing the importance of knowing about equal love.
Just to know if you love me as much as I love you
Desiring assurance that love is reciprocal.
Do you want me?
Reiterating the need for confirmation of desire.
Do you love me?
Repeating the desire for confirmation of love.
