Want Me
Yearning Echoes: Sort of Sad's 'Want Me' Unraveled
Lyrics
Because I know I wouldn’t be there
Expressing awareness that the speaker wouldn't be present in a situation.
I thought you would believe it
Expectation that the listener would trust or believe a statement made by the speaker.
That I’m still on it with you
Affirming an ongoing connection with the listener.
I know we couldn’t get it trough
Acknowledging the failure to overcome a challenge or obstacle in the relationship.
And then I knock on your door
Describing a moment of seeking attention or reconciliation by approaching the listener's door.
Telling you that everything I had was before
Stating that everything the speaker possessed was in the past.
You told me
Recalling the listener's words or response.
You hold me
Highlighting the physical act of holding, possibly indicating emotional support.
You want me
Expressing the listener's desire for the speaker.
And then I knock on your door
Repetition of the action of knocking on the door and recounting past possessions.
Telling you that everything I had was before
Continuation of conveying past possessions and a repeated response from the listener.
You told me
Reiterating the listener's words or response.
You hold me
Repeating the act of holding, indicating a desire for closeness or connection.
You want me
Affirming the listener's continued want or desire for the speaker.
Couldn’t you give me one more take
Expressing a plea for another opportunity or chance.
Couldn’t you give me one more chance
Repeating the plea for an additional chance or opportunity.
To let me think about all you said
Reflecting on the listener's words and contemplating them.
Let me think about all you said
Repeating the contemplation of the listener's words.
You ask me what I came for
Posing a question about the purpose of the speaker's visit.
To tell you I was just getting
Clarifying that the speaker was previously experiencing confusion or disorientation.
Lost before
Recalling a state of being lost before the current interaction.
You told me
Reiterating the listener's words or response.
You hold me
Repeating the physical act of holding, suggesting emotional support.
You want me
Affirming the listener's continued desire for the speaker.
You ask me what I came for
