Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Disclosure's "Tenderly" seem to be a simple repetition of the main phrase "just thinking about you," along with a few interjections of "uh yeah" and "you give me this feeling." However, the song is actually quite complex in its simplicity. By repeating the phrase so many times, the song creates a sense of obsession or infatuation with the subject of the lyrics. The lyrics imply that the singer can't stop thinking about the person they are addressing, which suggests a deep emotional connection or desire for that individual.


The repetition of the phrase "you give me this feeling" emphasizes the emotional response that the singer has to the person they are thinking about. This feeling is not explicitly defined in the lyrics, but it is clear that it is powerful and positive. Combined with the obsession suggested by the repetition of "just thinking about you," the song seems to be an expression of intense attraction and emotion.


Overall, "Tenderly" is a deceptively simple song that uses repetition and implication to create a sense of emotional intensity and connection.
