Sometimes
Yearnings Unveiled: Love, Temptation, and Desire
Lyrics
Hello beautiful
Greeting and complimenting the listener
Are you married?
Asking about the listener's marital status
Sometimes
Expressing occasional uncertainty or hesitation
Yeah, but
Confirming the listener's marriage
Are you happy?
Inquiring about the listener's happiness
Yes, sometimes
Confirming occasional happiness
But sometimes I feel like I just got to get away
Feeling the need to escape from routine
From the same old existence
Tired of the repetitive, mundane life
Day after day
Desire for a change from the monotonous existence
Oh, haven't you ever felt that way?
Asking if the listener has ever felt the same
Sometimes
Reiterating the occasional feelings of wanting change
I can see you're married
Observing the listener's marital status
Don't you love her?
Asking about the listener's love for their spouse
Sometimes
Reiterating occasional uncertainty or dissatisfaction
But you have thought of cheating her, haven't you?
Suspecting thoughts of infidelity
Yes, sometimes
Confirming occasional thoughts of cheating
Sometimes I long
Expressing a longing for intimacy
For a warm tender kiss
Desiring a warm and tender kiss
Just to see if there's anything
Curiosity about what might have been missed in life
I might have missed
Asking if the listener has ever felt similarly
Oh, haven't you ever felt like this?
Reiterating occasional feelings of longing for more
Sometimes
(Blank line)
I'm just beginning to feel like this might be one of those sometimes
Expressing a realization that the current moment may be significant
Those one time
Referring to a rare, special occurrence
In a lifetime
Describing a once-in-a-lifetime experience
I'm aching to hold you
Expressing a strong desire to embrace and comfort the listener
Kiss and console you
Expressing a longing for physical closeness
Drive you right out of your mind
Expressing a desire to captivate the listener emotionally
But I know when I go, I won't get over you
Acknowledging the difficulty of moving on after leaving
For quite sometime
Anticipating a prolonged period of emotional recovery
I'm aching to hold you
Repeating the desire to embrace and comfort the listener
Kiss and console you
Reiterating the longing for physical closeness
Drive you right out of your mind
Repeating the desire to captivate the listener emotionally
But I know when I go, I won't get over you
Reiterating the challenge of moving on after departure
For quite sometime
Acknowledging a prolonged emotional recovery period
