I Want You
Yearning Shadows: Embracing Desire in Tina Dickow's Melodic Spell
Lyrics
At times in the morning
Reflecting on certain moments in the morning.
I see wrong from right
Aware of distinguishing between right and wrong.
But then comes the evening and
Evening comes, and the effort to discern is abandoned.
I don´t even try i want you
Expressing a strong desire for someone (ambiguous subject).
I can't be alone tonight
Unable to tolerate solitude tonight.
The bed is unmade, the world is on fire
Chaos in personal space, a metaphorical world on fire.
It´s no time to tame a lonesome man's desire
Not the right time to suppress the yearning of a lonely person.
I want you i can't be alone tonight
Reiteration of a strong desire for companionship.
I shake when you're with me
Physical or emotional reaction when the person is present.
I break when you go
Emotional breakdown when the person is absent.
The sight of it ain´t pretty of
Acknowledging the unpleasant reality of desiring someone knowledgeable.
A man in the know i want you
Reiteration of the intense desire for the ambiguous subject.
I can´t be alone tonight
Reaffirmation of the inability to be alone tonight.
Take me now, into the night
Expressing a willingness to be taken into the night.
Take me now, don´t change your mind
Emphasizing the urgency and requesting not to change intentions.
Take me here and now let's go crazy together
Proposal to engage in something wild together immediately.
Pretend that we´ll never
Suggesting pretending that goodbyes will never happen.
Speak the goodbyes that loom in our eyes
Highlighting the avoidance of acknowledging impending farewells.
I want you
Reiteration of the intense desire for the ambiguous subject.
