Lyrics

I wanna tell you that I'm sorry

I regretfully want to express my apology

I wanna say that I was wrong

I wish to acknowledge my mistake

I wanna tell you that this circus

I desire to communicate that this situation

That we been living in

Our current existence

Ain't where we belong

Is not our true place or purpose

It's like the Grand Canyon

Metaphorically likening our situation to the Grand Canyon

And we're out here on the edge

We are on the precipice

But we're still standin'

Despite challenges, we are still enduring

Baby we haven't fallen yet

We have not succumbed to failure


I don't wanna talk anymore tonight

I prefer not to engage in conversation tonight

Fallin' through the trap

Falling into the trap

Of who's wrong and who's right

Of determining right or wrong

It's easy to see

It's evident how you're observing me

The way you're lookin' at me

Indicating a shared desire

That you just want the same things

We both want the same things

That I do

Aligning our desires

All I want is to make love to you

Expressing a desire for intimacy

There's really nothing to say

There's nothing significant to discuss

Don't let our words get in the way

A plea to avoid complicating matters with words


We both know love's not perfect

Acknowledging the imperfections of love

It's good, it's bad, it's everything

Love encompasses both positive and negative aspects

You know what makes it worth it

What makes it worthwhile

For the all the moments in between

Are the moments in between

There's a deep ocean

Describing the depth of emotions

Sometimes it's sink or swim

Life sometimes presents challenges

These are real emotions

These emotions are genuine

So baby let's dive in

Encouraging a deep emotional connection


I don't wanna talk anymore tonight

Declining further conversation for the night

Fallin' through the trap

Falling into the trap again

Of who's wrong and who's right

Of assigning blame

It's easy to see

Your intentions are apparent

The way you're lookin' at me

Expressing shared desires visually

That you just want the same things

We both seek the same things

That I do

Harmony in our desires

All I want is to make love to you

Expressing a longing for intimacy

There's really nothing to say

No need for extensive communication

Don't let our words get in the way

A plea to avoid complicating matters with words


Baby

Endearing term for the partner


You just want the same things

Reiterating the shared desires

That I do

Aligning desires with the partner

All I want is to make love to you

Expressing a longing for intimacy

There's really nothing to say

No need for extensive communication

Don't let our words get in the way

A plea to avoid complicating matters with words

Oh

An additional plea to avoid words as obstacles

Don't let our words get in the way

Emphasizing the importance of avoiding verbal complications

Don't let our words
