Big Mistake
Love's Pursuit: Unraveling the Consequences of Desire
Lyrics
The more you want the less you take
The more you desire, the less you receive
I'm gonna make you calculate
I will make you think carefully or evaluate your actions
Take what you want for feelings sake
Take whatever you want for the sake of emotions
And it'll be your big mistake
Doing so will lead to a significant error on your part
Your big mistake
Emphasizing the magnitude of the upcoming mistake
Your big mistake
-Your big mistake
-Your big, big, big
-I could give you love
Expressing readiness to offer love despite potential consequences
If thats whats on your mind
-Just to cuff you up
-I'm working overtime
-I'm rushing to the scene just to be with you
Hurrying to be with someone, possibly implying urgency
I feel like I might have to do some time
Suggesting a willingness to take risks or face consequences for love
The way I'm hearing sirens when I'm seeing you
Associating the presence of the person with danger or excitement
I know kissing you has got to be a crime
Expressing that being involved with the person feels like a forbidden act
I could give you love
Reiterating the offer of love and commitment despite challenges
If thats whats on your mind
-Just to cuff you up
-I'm working overtime
-You're on the run I'm on the way
Chasing after someone who is trying to escape, warning of consequences
To get you in the first 48
-You break my heart or hesitate
-And it'll be your big mistake
-Your big mistake
Repeating the emphasis on the impending significant mistake
Your big mistake
-Your big mistake
-Your big, big, big
-You set off alarms like the 4th day of July
Comparing the person's impact to a major event, highlighting pursuit
I'm your first responder lead detective private eye
-Bout to lock you down like this was Miami Vice
-Cuz the way you move your body it has got to be a crime
-I could give you love
Reaffirming the offer of love and commitment, working hard for it
If thats whats on your mind
-Just to cuff you up
-I'm working overtime
-You're on the run I'm on the way
Continuing the theme of chasing someone, emphasizing potential regret
To get you in the first 48
-You break my heart or hesitate
-And it'll be your big mistake
-You're on the run I'm on the way
Reiterating the pursuit and potential regret if the person hesitates
I'll get you in the first 48
-You break my heart or hesitate
-And it'll be your big mistake
-Your big mistake
Final repetition of the warning about the significant mistake ahead
Your big mistake
-Your big mistake
-Your big mistake
