Song in Your Box, Week Forty-Six

Week Forty Six-"Give it to Me" What a rainy dreary day. Lately it seems as though the universe is in total support of my staying inside all day and writing. It has happened a couple of times and luckily I haven't had to leave the house for any reason. And so I didn't:)

I wanted to say thank you for all the feedback on the song last week. After having my friend/guitar teacher give me additional feedback I might be changing more than just the chorus:) But I'll work on it and put it up in the next couple of weeks.

Sometimes, I wonder why I always write about relationships and sometimes I actually am hard on myself about it. (Other people have been too actually.) I know that there are more important things and a million unimportant things to sing about but for whatever reason, this is what moves me the most. I would love to sing about global warming or nuclear war but it just doesn't feel right. It's not my truth I suppose.

And honestly, the songs can be interpreted to be about anyone. Not just romantic relationships. Really it's about the feeling. The feeling of love, or fear, or frustration or fun! I think it's something that unites us all. We all feel such a range of emotions and a lot of my songs come as an outlet for those emotions. With the hope that it will resonate with you and you will know you're not alone:)

So this week's song is no different. It's about a feeling. A feeling of wanting. Sometimes I'm not sure if I really want the thing or if I just like the feeling of wanting it. Know what I mean?

Anyway, I'll get to the song already!:) Here it is..."Give it to Me".

Thanks so much for watching!

All my wanting love,

Dana

You came around at the perfect time

I needed you, I needed you

To be the fuel of my burning fire

the perfect muse, my perfect muse

Every time I think it's something more

We veer so slightly off the course

I've been trying not to push

I realize there ain't no rush

But I want it so bad, so give it to me

I've been trying to hold out

Hoping you might come around

But I'm not waiting forever, so give it to me

Do you ever think about it?

How it would be? How it could be?

Staying up all night, just talking

Waking up next to me, oh you're next to me

I realize that we might mess it up

I got a feeling it would be so good

I've been trying not to push

I realize there ain't no rush

But I want it so bad, so give it to me

I've been trying to hold out

Hoping you might come around

But I'm not waiting forever, so give it to me

We could stay in bed all day

While it rains, I kiss your face

All the fear melts away

We're in the perfect place, as I kiss your face

I realize I'm asking for too much

but Maybe you and I could have it all

I've been trying not to push

I realize there ain't no rush

But I want it so bad, so give it to me

I've been trying to hold out

Hoping you might come around

But I'm not waiting forever, so give it to me
