Lyrics
Where is the line
Questioning the boundary or limit in the relationship
Am I too much for you
Wondering if one's personality or intensity is overwhelming the other person
I'm bitter wine
Comparing oneself to bitter wine, possibly suggesting complexity or difficulty
Takes a bit to get into
Requires effort or time to understand or appreciate
So I'm hanging around until you pull me closer
Staying present until getting closer emotionally or physically
I'm bitter wine
Reiteration of feeling akin to bitter wine
You don't say much
Partner doesn't communicate much verbally
Every time I've got to read you
Requires interpreting non-verbal cues to understand the partner
You don't seem to feel the rush
Partner doesn't experience the same urgency or intensity
That I think I'm hooked to
Feeling emotionally attached or addicted to the partner
See I'm trying to speak soft and subtly
Attempting to communicate gently to avoid scaring the partner away
Cuz I dont wanna scare you
Fear of causing distress or pushing the partner away
Cuz like summer sun
Comparing the partner's effect to the warmth of the summer sun
Warms up my skin
Describing the partner's impact on oneself
Feel better with you
Feeling improved or more positive with the partner
You take your time
Partner taking their time with something, possibly the relationship
I don't think that I'm impatient
Not feeling overly impatient about the partner's pace
You draw the line
Partner establishing boundaries or limits
And I'll keep on waiting
Willingness to wait for the partner's boundaries to be crossed
You're gaining a taste for things you aren't used to
Partner developing a liking for unfamiliar things
A taste for bitter wine
Acquiring a taste for challenging or difficult experiences
There's no one else
Asserting that there's no better match for the partner than oneself
Than me that's better for you
Self-perceived superiority as a partner for the other person
And speaking just for myself
Expressing personal attachment to the partner
You're the one I hold to
Considering the partner as someone important to hold on to
I know you see there's something here in us
Acknowledging potential within the relationship
You see what we could become
Recognizing the potential future of the relationship
