Another day is going by
I'm thinking about you all the time
But you're out there and I'm here waiting
I'd do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you laugh
'Cause somehow I can't put you in the past
I'd do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
Will you remember me?
'Cause I know I won't forget you
If you haven’t guessed, I love music. I especially love reintroducing myself to older songs and seeing how the lyrics hit differently. When I was younger, I had very little experience with love, kink, and heartbreak. Even now, I break my own heart more than others help me break it.
Listening to this one today and wondering about “anything” and what that means.
What exactly is included in I’ll do anything? As I grow older, this answer changes. It broadens in some ways. When you connect with someone and really want to feel all their love and attention on you, it is tempting to do anything and everything in your power to make them happy and to notice you.
But it also has narrowed. As I am typing this, I got a comment on one of my videos simply asking, “Skype?” I don’t use Skype. Not sure who does now. I think there is an expectation that if you are an exhibitionist and you share yourself online, you are willing to share much more in private with someone. That is not the case for everyone.
But for those connections, I love thinking about being asked to do things. Maybe not anything, but something.
