| Well it seems like he's in love with someone, but she don't respond on any of his phonecalls. Or she's playing hard-to-get or she is just not that in to him..All he wants to know is what she thinks of him. | |

| This song is just awesome, I can NOT believe this only has one comment so far. First off, musically it's awesome. The trumpet in the beginning is obnoxious, but doesn't last long. Then the walking bassline on the piano is just AWESOME. Once you get into the main song it just keeps groovin'. As far as the meaning of the song itself, it's something I know all about. For me, this is about a guy who wants his girl to cut the bullshit. She says she loves him, but her actions don't line up with her words at all. She never has time for him, but she hangs out with all her other friends: For me you never seem to find the time Come on I've waited for your phonecalls But you must be uptown having fun When you do that thing you do I get so exited too But you never think to ask me if I want to Come with you So honey where do we go from here??? Uptown having fun, with her other people. I know how that goes. Then he calls her out on it: You say you love to love me, love to love me But you always keep your distance So honey strike me off your list If your love comes with a twist Cause I want the part that lingered on my lips when we first kissed Just... Read the lyrics, it's all there plain as day. The love you should be giving me Is the love you're rarely showing He wants to know if she's serious about it or just fooling around, cause he wants something real. He wants to know where they're headed, he wants to know if he's wasting his time: Where do we go from here? I've been trying to find out but I'm still some way from knowing It's not exactly clear 1 | |
