Be Your Man
Yearning for Love: Weston Wilkerson's 'Be Your Man' Reveals the Depths of Longing
Lyrics
We've been on and off
We have experienced periods of being together and apart
For a week or two
These cycles have occurred over a week or two
And I just can't stop
I find it difficult to cease thoughts about you
Thinking about you
Constantly preoccupied with thoughts of you
Baby
An affectionate term, addressing the person
And its driving me crazy
This situation is causing me emotional distress
Well you feel like you're treading
Feeling uncertain and precarious in the relationship
On deep quicksand
Metaphorically feeling stuck and unstable
But I promise you girl
I assure you, once you commit to this relationship
Once you take my hand
After taking a step forward, things will improve
C'mon baby
Encouraging the partner to move forward
All you're worries will be gone
Promising a resolution to worries when together
You might not know what to think
Uncertain feelings and confusion may arise
And I might make two
Possibly making mistakes, but intentions are genuine
All I know
Expressing a desire to be together
Is I wanna be with you
Expressing a strong wish for a relationship
If you let me
Requesting permission to be part of the partner's life
C'mon baby just let me
Encouraging the partner to accept the proposal
Be your man
Expressing a desire to be the partner's man
You're the young man's dream
Describing the partner as an ideal for many men
Long dark hair
Physical description of the partner's attractive features
Beautiful smile
Complimenting the partner's beautiful smile
I can't help but stare
Expressing admiration and captivation
At you baby
Reiterating the attractiveness of the partner
You're a lovely lady
Complementing the partner as a lovely lady
Brighter than a blue sky
Describing the partner as exceptionally bright
Shining off you're angel eyes
Highlighting the attractiveness of the partner's eyes
Gotta wanna need to gotta make you mine
Expressing a strong desire to make the partner one's own
C'mon baby
Encouraging the partner to move forward in the relationship
There's no need to drag this on
Suggesting that prolonging the current state is unnecessary
You might not know what to think
Uncertain feelings and confusion may arise
And I might make two
Possibly making mistakes, but intentions are genuine
All I know
Expressing a desire to be together
Is I wanna be with you
Expressing a strong wish for a relationship
If you let me
Requesting permission to be part of the partner's life
C'mon baby just let me
Encouraging the partner to accept the proposal
Be your man
Expressing a desire to be the partner's man
Yeah, be your man
Reiteration of the desire to be the partner's man
Be your man
Final affirmation of the desire to be the partner's man
