Line by Line Meaning

Ay baby, hey baby
Greetings, my love

You want it all
You desire everything

All alone, walking high on the wire
You're solo, walking a tightrope

You want it all
You desire everything

Or you brag that you're lost in the fire
Even if you boast that you're consumed by the flames

Before you fall
Before you stumble and take a hit

Let me show you my love that you know you've been searching for
Allow me to demonstrate the affection you've been seeking

You've been searching for
You've been questing for it

Now you got me saying
Now I'm expressing

Hey baby, it'll all be fine
My love, everything will work out

Take a deep breath let me blow your mind
Inhale deeply and let me dazzle you

Hey baby, leave it all behind
Sweetheart, abandon everything

Show me your love and I'll show you mine
Show me your affection and I'll demonstrate mine

I see it all
I perceive everything

You could run, you could hide if you like
You have the option to flee or conceal yourself

I see it all
I perceive everything

See you lost all the light in your eyes
Observe that the gleam has vanished from your eyes

I'm standing tall
I'm unwavering

Let me show you me love that you know you've been looking for
Allow me to demonstrate the affection you've been seeking

What you waiting for
What's holding you back?
