Gary Private Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I THINK I'M HEARING YOU MOAN.
MAKIN ME CRAZY
THIS FEELING HAS GROWN, THIS FEELING I'VE GOT
YOUR SO DAMN HOT.
MAKIN ME CRAZY, WAITING:
(chorus)
I'VE GOT SO MUCH TO SAY, BUT YOUR SO FAR AWAY, I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU TODAY......MAKIN ME CRAZY
YOU GOTTA GIVE ME A SIGN,
CALL ME SOMETIME...MAKIN ME CRAZY
I JUST REMEMBER THE NIGHT,
WHEN I FIRST HELD YOU TIGHT
TO KISS, JUST SEEMED RIGHT. MAKIN ME CRAZY .
NOW I WISH YOU WERE HERE, IT'S BEEN ALMOST A YEAR, ANOTHER VALENTINE TEAR, MAKIN ME CRAZY
IM JUST WAITING, OH I KEEP ON WAITING
IT KEEPS SLIPPING MY MIND, I KNOW IT'S A CRIME,
SO LET ME TAKE OUT THIS TIME
TO TELL YOU I MISS YOU, AND MAXI YOUR LOVELY
The song “Waiting For You” by Gary Private is a song about an individual who has been alone for too long and has been missing their loved one. The lyrics talk about how this person is losing their mind because of the feeling they have for their loved one, who is far away. It is hard for them to communicate with each other as they are not in the same place and they have so much to say to each other. The chorus of the song implies that the distance between them is causing them to go crazy without each other and they desperately want to see each other soon.
The singer of the song thinks that they can hear their loved one moaning, which is making them feel wild and excited. They are excited about the prospect of seeing their loved one again, and the physical attraction makes waiting for them unbearable. The memories of the last time they were together are strong and they cannot help but feel the need to hold their loved one close again. They miss them so much that they think about them all the time and they want some sign of communication from them, either a call, a message or a letter.
Overall, the song expresses the torment and longing that the singer feels for their loved one. The distance between them is causing a lot of stress and they can’t wait to be together again.
