My heart
Anson Funderburgh & Rockets The Featuring Sam Myers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But if you want me...
What do you know
Another night spent on my own
You’ll be gone tomorrow
And I’ll become a phone
I know it's not for lack of interest
This ain't some kind of contest
See, I'll give you anything
If you would take me with you
When you're leaving for the lake
So look at me, I'm Mr-So-Self-Centered
Cuz I can't stop asking for more
Yea
I know that we've been here once before
But if you want me
I'll come running back
I'll come running back to your door
Cross my heart and hope to be yours
Well what do you know
Another night spent all on my own
Three months until you're home
And I hate to take it slow
Yea
I know that we've been here once before
But if you want me
I'll come running back
I'll come running back to your door
So look at me, I'm Mr-So-Self-Centered
Cuz I can't stop asking for more
But I could be anything that you could dream up
If you never tell me “no no”
And it's so pitiful...
Oh honey
It's so pitiful
For me to cross my heart and state
Something so cynical
Just to prove that I will wait
(And I'll hope to die) for you
For you
I know that we've been here once before
But if you want me
I'll come running back
I'll come running back to your door
Oh honey, I'll run back to you
So look at me, I'm Mr-So-Self-Centered
Cuz I can't stop asking for more
But I could be anything that you could dream up
If you never tell me “no no”
So look at me, I'm Mr-So-Self-Centered
But from you I'd never ask for more
I’ll just cross my heart and hope to be
Cross my heart and hope to be...
Cross my heart and hope to be yours

I know that we've been here once before
I am aware that we have experienced this situation previously
But if you want me...
However, if you desire my presence...
What do you know
Interestingly enough
Another night spent on my own
Yet again, I find myself alone during the evening
You’ll be gone tomorrow
You will be departing tomorrow
And I’ll become a phone
Leaving me feeling disconnected and lonely
I know it's not for lack of interest
I understand that it is not due to a lack of attraction
This ain't some kind of contest
This is not a competition
I'm just looking for some give and take
I simply seek a balanced give-and-take dynamic
See, I'll give you anything
You see, I am willing to provide anything for you
If you would take me with you
As long as you choose to include me in your plans
When you're leaving for the lake
When you depart for the lake
So look at me, I'm Mr-So-Self-Centered
Observe me, as I display traits of being self-centered
Cuz I can't stop asking for more
Because I cannot refrain from continuously seeking more
Yea
Indeed
I'll come running back to your door
I will eagerly return to your doorstep
Cross my heart and hope to be yours
I solemnly pledge and desire to belong to you
Well what do you know
Well, isn't it interesting
Three months until you're home
There are three months remaining until your return home
And I hate to take it slow
I despise the slow pace of time
Oh honey
Oh, my dear
It's so pitiful
It is incredibly sorrowful
For me to cross my heart and state
It is unfortunate for me to make a sincere promise
Something so cynical
Something so doubtful and skeptical
Just to prove that I will wait
Simply to demonstrate my patience
(And I'll hope to die) for you
(And I will hope to endure) for your sake
Oh honey, I'll run back to you
Oh, my dear, I will rush back to your side
But from you I'd never ask for more
However, I would never request anything more from you
I’ll just cross my heart and hope to be
I will merely make a heartfelt promise and desire to become
Cross my heart and hope to be...
I solemnly pledge and desire to become...
Cross my heart and hope to be yours
Crossing my heart, I sincerely desire to belong to you
