Come Over
Longing and Devotion: Yearning for Love in Walter Q. Jackson's 'Come Over'
Lyrics
Spending So much time
Reflecting on the amount of time spent.
Running through my life
Busy navigating through life's journey.
Just having fun
Engaging in activities for enjoyment.
I guess I thought it was alright
Previously thinking it was acceptable.
To have you on the sideline
Accepting the person as a secondary option.
Because I'll never find the one
Believing that finding true love is challenging.
But when I have you next to me
Realizing clarity when the person is close.
I see it so clearly and I know for sure
Having a clear vision and certainty.
That this is how its gotta be
Confirming that the current situation is ideal.
I just can't go back
Unable to revert to the past.
To the way it was before
Unwilling to return to the previous state.
I can't even go
Expressing dependence on the person.
A day without you 'cause you're always on my mind
Constantly thinking about the person.
I want you to know
Expressing a desire for the person to understand.
That nothing's better than your body next to mine
Highlighting the unmatched significance of the person's presence.
So can I come over?
Requesting permission to visit or spend time together.
I wanna come over
Reiterating the desire to visit.
I guess the stars have all aligned
Noticing positive changes in circumstances.
Everything has changed
Acknowledging a transformative phase.
Done with yesterday
Moving on from the past.
I know that I'll be doin' fine
Expressing confidence in the future.
If I get my way
Desiring a specific outcome.
So baby I just wanna hear you say
Requesting verbal affirmation.
I can't even go
Reiterating dependence on the person.
A day without you 'cause you're always on my mind
Continued preoccupation with thoughts of the person.
I want you to know
Emphasizing the importance of the message.
I wanna be with you until the end of time
Expressing a desire for a lasting connection.
So can I come over?
Repeating the request to visit.
(I want you to know I love you so)
Additional declaration of love and commitment.
I wanna come over
Reaffirming the desire to visit.
So can I come over?
Repeating the request for permission to come over.
(I want you to know I love you so)
Reiterating love and commitment.
I wanna come over
Expressing a persistent desire to visit.
