A man feels that his lover's fears, inhibitions and doubts are causing her to over think her feelings. Similarly, fears of being hurt are preventing her from giving herself fully to the relationship.
He wishes she could stop all her tests and hesitancy and just dive into the relationship. Deep intimacy and passion cannot be acquired through wariness and caution. One can only feel what one is open to, and he wants her to just close her eyes and feel the power of the moment.
Her guardedness is causing her to be distant. He knows he can't truly be with her, until she lets herself be with him. But he wants her to truly feel how much he wants to be with her, how much he wants them to enter into each others lives, hearts and skin.
lyrics
With You 5/30/90
Love determined with no destination
Care given with no real inclination
(I need to be with you)
How can I ever leave you?
( I need to be with you)
When I’ve never really been with you
Ooh love is the fire freed from need
Sly lies won’t capture my love woman
Love is not a game to be won
(I need to be with you)
Close your eyes and feel the pulse of the street
(I need to be with you)
Drift inside and sense the power of our beat
Though we move closer to the source of our passion
We’re unaware of decision
Thoughts give way to feeling, the center of meaning
Unafraid of deception
Ooh love is the fire freed from need
Feel with me the patterns of our love emerging
Textures unfold which no human hand will ever know
Tantalize yourself with our love
Get inside yourself with our love
I want to be with you
But you got to be with me
Understand?
Tantalize yourself with our love
I want to be with you
