Lyrics

Oh lady come on over

Expressing a desire for the lady to come over.

Oh won't you please hold my hand

Requesting the lady to hold hands, seeking connection.

Because nothing seems to work

Conveying a sense of frustration or struggle in the speaker's mind.

In my head anymore, oh

Highlighting the difficulty or confusion in the speaker's thoughts.

I give you one two three four

Counting, possibly signaling a need for order or clarity.


Because I mean something to say

Expressing a forthcoming message or statement.

Before the feeling goes away

Emphasizing the urgency to convey a message before a feeling fades.

And you’re out of my life

Noting a potential separation, asking the lady not to leave the speaker's life.

Oh you jump into his

Referencing someone else ("his") entering the picture, possibly a rival.


Oh lady won't you come over

Inviting the lady to come over for enjoyment or companionship.

And we could have some fun

Suggesting an escape from problems in the speaker's bed.

Because nothing seems to work

Echoing the sentiment of line 3, indicating ongoing struggles.

In my bed anymore, oh

Expressing difficulty finding comfort in the speaker's bed.

I give you one two three four

Repeating the counting pattern from line 5.


Because I mean something to say

Reiterating the imminent expression of a message or feeling.

Before the feeling goes away

Highlighting the urgency to convey a message before emotions fade.

And you're out of my life

Acknowledging a potential departure of the lady from the speaker's life.

Oh you jump into his

Referring to the lady possibly choosing another person ("his").


Oh oh oh oh oh love love love love love

Expressing love or intense emotion through repetition.

Oh oh oh oh oh i give you one two three four

Repeating the counting pattern, emphasizing the structured expression.


Because I mean something to say

Reiterating the forthcoming expression of a significant message.

Before the feeling goes away

Emphasizing the urgency to convey a message before feelings diminish.

And you're out of my life

Acknowledging the potential departure of the lady from the speaker's life.

Oh you jump into his

Referring to the lady possibly choosing another person ("his").


Oh oh oh oh na na na na

Using vocal sounds ("oh," "na na na") to convey emotion without specific words.

Yeah yeah yeah!

Expressing affirmation or agreement with "yeah yeah yeah!"


We all we all have something to say

Repetition emphasizing that everyone has something important to express.

We all we all have something to say

We all we all have something to say

We all we all have something to say
