Don't
Embrace of Love: Zoë Kravitz's 'Don't' Unveiled
Lyrics
Don't (don't)
Expressing a prohibition or advising against
Don't (don't)
Repeated emphasis on advising against
That's what you say
Indicating someone's statement or instruction
Each time that I hold you this way
Whenever I hold you like this
When I feel like this and I wanna kiss you
Expressing desire to kiss
Baby, don't say don't
Requesting not to say no
(Don't)
Reiteration of the request not to do something
(Don't)
-Don't (don't)
Advising against leaving the embrace
Don't (don't)
Reiterated advice against leaving
Leave my embrace
Stay within my embrace, it's where you belong
For here in my arms is your place
Asserting that holding in arms is the rightful place
When the night grows cold and I wanna hold you
Expressing a desire to hold when it's cold
Baby, don't say don't
Requesting not to refuse the desire to hold
(Don't, don't, don't)
Repetition of the request
(Don't, don't, don't)
Continued repetition of the request
If you think that this is just a game I'm playing
Addressing doubts about the seriousness of feelings or intentions
If you think that I don't mean every word I'm saying
Affirming the sincerity of statements made
Don't (don't)
Reiteration of advice against feeling a certain way
Don't (don't)
Repeated advice against a feeling
Don't feel that way
Urging against feeling a particular emotion
I'm your love and yours I will stay
Declaring commitment and dedication in a relationship
This you can believe
Expressing trustworthiness and commitment
I will never leave you
Promise to stay and not abandon
Heaven knows I won't (don't)
Reiterated commitment not to leave
Baby don't say don't (don't)
Requesting not to say no or reject
Baby don't say don't (don't)
Reiterated request not to refuse
