Obsession
Mauwe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Are you still out with her?
I've been waiting for so long
Should have made my move before
I guess I might have got it wrong

And I've been waiting for so long for an answer
And I've been sitting out in the rain
And I take everything you say to heart
But I think I could make you feel the same

Obsession, obsession, obsession
Is all that I seem to do
Obsession, obsession, obsession
Do I mean anything to you?
Anything to you
Anything to you
Anything to you
Anything to you
Anything to you

My head's in overdrive
i've been thinking for too long
Skipping all the traffic lights
Skipping to your favourite song

And I've been waiting for so long for an answer
and I've been screaming into the rain
Maybe I know I do this to myself
Maybe I love it when I feel this way

Obsession, obsession, obsession
Is all that I seem to do
Obsession, obsession, obsession
Do I mean anything to you?
Anything to you
Anything to you
Anything to you




Anything to you
Anything to you

Give this Lady an award, this is well thought out and executed.

Hahaha I don't know if it's technically the lady herself who came up with the storyline, and I'm fairly certain the actual owner has an Estonian accent that's noticeably different from this video...but it's definitely clever the way this was put together!

For the record, after creeping on their YouTube channel - Mauri and Cucumbers - I figured out that Mauri is spoiled with fresh, new cucumbers ALLLLL the time, even getting a fresh/new one each time he was given the "Zucchini challenge" LOL!!
