Talk
Pete Cho Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But we don't got to talk about it
Talk about it
Strapless, so hypnotic
But we don't got to talk about it
Talk about it
Lean in but you pull away
That look in your eyes, my weakness
Don't know what you're gonna say
But I know how to talk your language
You blush and you look away
If not we can just stay strangers
You need to make up my mind baby
Ooh
Make up my mind baby
Ooh
Will you take me home when it's time to go?
Make up my mind baby
Ooh
Baby girl, see you watch me
We don't got to talk about it
Talk about it
And if I can't get you off me
We don't got to talk about it
Talk about it
Whisper like you're telling secrets
Lean in but you pull away
That look in your eyes, my weakness
Don't know what you're gonna say
I know how to talk your language
Could speak in tongue for days
If not we can just stay strangers
You need to make up my mind baby
Ooh
Make up my mind baby
Ooh
Will you take me home when it's time to go?
Make up my mind baby
Ooh
Talk about it, gonna talk about it
Talk about it, gonna talk about it
Talk about it, gonna talk about it
Talk about it, gonna talk
Talk about it, gonna talk about it
Talk about it, gonna talk about it
Talk about it, gonna talk
You need to make up my mind baby
Ooh
Make up my mind baby
Ooh
Will you take me home when it's time to go?
Make up my mind baby
Ooh
In these lyrics, Pete Cho expresses a desire to engage in a physical, sensual encounter with someone without the need for conversation or communication. The black dress symbolizes the allure and seduction, but the emphasis is on the fact that "we don't got to talk about it." This suggests a purely physical connection where the emotions and intentions can be left unspoken.
The line "Whisper like you're telling secrets, lean in but you pull away" portrays a game of attraction and teasing. It highlights the tantalizing nature of the encounter, with the subject creating a sense of mystery and anticipation by withholding their words and actions. The look in their eyes becomes a weakness for the singer, making them uncertain about what the other person will express.
Despite the lack of verbal communication, the singer claims to understand the other person's unspoken language and is willing to adapt to their desires. This understanding is shown through the line "I know how to talk your language, could speak in tongue for days." The singer is comfortable in this space of non-verbal connection and suggests that they can remain strangers, keeping the encounter purely physical without the burden of emotional attachments.
The chorus, "Make up my mind baby, will you take me home when it's time to go?" portrays a sense of indecisiveness and uncertainty on the part of the singer. They are torn between wanting to fully commit or simply remain in the moment without any obligations or expectations.
Overall, these lyrics explore the excitement and temptation of a non-verbal, physical connection. They portray a willingness to engage in a purely sensual encounter without the need for conversation or emotional attachment. However, there is also a sense of ambiguity and indecisiveness, as the singer contemplates whether to take things further or leave it as a temporary encounter.
