Lyrics
Wait a minute baby
Expressing impatience, requesting attention or a pause.
Stay with me a while
Asking for companionship or time spent together.
You said you'd give me light
Recalling a promise of enlightenment or guidance.
But you never told me about that fire
Realizing unexpected challenges or difficulties represented by "fire."
Wait a minute baby
Repetition for emphasis or urgency.
(Wait a minute baby)
Reiterating the plea for a brief pause or attention.
Stay with me a while
Re-emphasizing the desire for prolonged company.
(A while, please, a while honey)
Additional plea for an extended period together, using endearing terms.
You said you'd give me light
Recalling the promise of receiving enlightenment or understanding.
(Give me light)
Reiterating the request for illumination or guidance.
But you never told me about that fire
Acknowledging the undisclosed challenges represented by "that fire."
(About that fire)
Emphasizing the surprise or lack of prior knowledge about the difficulties.
Oh, we're drowning
Describing a feeling of being overwhelmed or submerged.
Yeah, we're drowning
Repetition of the drowning theme, intensifying the emotional impact.
Oh, we're drowning
Continuation of the drowning metaphor, underlining a sense of helplessness.
Yeah, we're drowning in the sea of love
Stating the presence of overwhelming emotions within the context of love.
Baby, baby
Endearing term used to address a significant other.
Call me home
An appeal to be called "home," suggesting a desire for comfort or refuge.
Call me home
Repetition of the plea to be called home for emphasis.
Call me home
Continuation of the call to return to a place of comfort or security.
Call me home
Final repetition of the desire to be called home, concluding the plea.
