You Look Good to Me
Unveiling Love's Landscape: The Wednesday Project's Musical Revelation
Lyrics
Is it alright that you look good to me?
Expressing attraction and questioning if it's acceptable to find the person appealing.
Is it okay I wanna take you home?
Seeking permission or validation to bring the person home due to the attraction.
Cus I've been thinking about what you said when we were off our heads
Reflecting on a past conversation, possibly during a carefree moment, and contemplating its meaning.
How I thought I knew what it meant, but I didn't know
Realizing a misunderstanding of a previous statement and acknowledging ignorance.
Is there something in the way?
Questioning if there is an obstacle or hindrance in the relationship.
Cus I promised I cleared my shelf
Reaffirming a commitment to make space for love, possibly indicating emotional availability.
There's so much space to love
Acknowledging the abundance of emotional capacity to love.
If you're ready, I'm already done
Expressing readiness to move forward in the relationship if the other person is prepared.
If you're ready, I'm already done
Reiterating willingness to progress in the relationship.
Cus my hands are up
Symbolically surrendering and disarming, showing vulnerability and openness.
I lay down my, my, my gun
-Cus my hands are up
-I lay down my, my, my gun
-We can take our time
Suggesting a desire to take things slow in the relationship.
God, for you I'd be an iceberg,
Comparing the depth of commitment to being as substantial as an iceberg; realizing a newfound clarity about the person.
If you liked
-Cus I see it now and I don't know
-How before I'd been so blind
-You're my first and last
Affirming the person's significance, being the first and last, and every time in between.
My everytime
-But is there something in the way?
Repeating the question about potential obstacles in the relationship.
Cus I promised I cleared my shelf
Reiterating commitment and readiness, expressing that emotional space is available for love.
There's so much space to love
-If you're ready, I'm already done
-If you're ready, I'm already done
-Cus my hands are up
Repeating the symbolic act of surrendering and being open.
I lay down my, my, my gun
-Cus my hands are up
-I lay down my, my, my gun
-Well I tried for a time
Reflecting on past attempts, acknowledging mistakes, expressing a desire to be genuine, and anticipating a change in the relationship.
And I pushed you aside
-But got mad at other men's eyes
-And it might be the same kindness
-I find
-But you're nothing alike
-And now that I know it
-And I'm rady to show it, what gives?
-The ground's about to shift
-But I never much liked it as is
-I'm only saying, baby
Seeking permission or acceptance to feel a certain way in the relationship.
Can I feel like this?
