Line by Line Meaning

Boy, show me all the love
Hey boy, express all of the affection you possess towards me


Make me know what you're made of
Demonstrate your true character and nature to me


I'm just a girl, but I know
Even though I am a female, I still possess knowledge and understanding


That you're the one that I want
You are the individual that I truly desire


And every time you hold me close
Every instance you embrace me intimately


I feel your power and your soul
I sense your strength and your inner being


Boy, let me in your dreams
Permit me to enter and be a part of your subconscious thoughts


I don't wanna leave
I have no desire to depart from your presence


I wanna stay forever
I yearn to remain with you eternally


Only you and me together
Just you and I united as one
