Moonchild Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Listening to you dish about her
(And the one before, and the one before)
I've been awake whenever you call
Saying things like, "No
It's no trouble at all"
(No, it's no trouble, baby)
Don't compromise, don't you compromise"
(You deserve better, baby)
Finding a way to stay in
The back of your mind
I'm not missing my chance on a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Bump some Erykah and break out the champagne
Skip the bullshit in between
I don't care if you're onto me
I'm not wasting my chance on a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Bump some Erykah and
Break out that champagne
I don't care if you're onto me
Stopping by my place just to say, "Hi"
Saying things like
"I've always wanted to try"
(Try it with me, baby, try it with me, baby)
You've been awake whenever I call
I never dreamed I'd be watching you fall
(Just let your guard down)
Why are we dancing on the line?
Boy, this is silly, wasting our time
(Oh, you've got me, baby)
We could be half the way
Through a bottle of wine
I'm not missing my chance on a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Bump some Erykah and break out the champagne
Skip the bullshit in between
I don't care if you're onto me
I'm not wasting my chance on a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Play some Erykah and break it out
Skip the bullshit baby
'Cause I don't care, no, no
'Cause I don't care, no, no
Damn, boy, we waited so long
Oo, but I know your love is strong
I knew it all along
Some day you'd keep me hanging on
The lyrics to Moonchild's song "Onto Me" depict a situation in which the singer is deeply infatuated with someone who seems to be interested in them as well. The singer mentions bringing coffee to the person's workplace and listening to them talk about past relationships. Despite knowing that this person may be onto them, the singer is not willing to let go of the opportunity to pursue a romantic connection. The phrase "don't compromise" is repeated, indicating the singer's desire for the person to pursue a relationship without holding back.
The lyrics also describe a reciprocation of interest from the person the singer is infatuated with. They stop by the singer's place just to say hi and express a desire to try new experiences together. However, the singer questions the significance of their interactions, referring to the situation as "silly" and wondering why they are wasting their time.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of longing, uncertainty, and vulnerability. The singer is willing to take a chance on this potential romantic connection, even if it means risking rejection or being discovered. The repetition of the phrase "I don't care if you're onto me" suggests that the singer is willing to face the consequences of their feelings, regardless of the outcome.
