Questions — Summary

You make me lose my mind. It's not like you do much, Just talk and acknowledge me, But I still think you're one of a kind.

What kind of music do you like? Rain, sun or night? Do you prefer the scooter or the bike? Would you talk to me for the rest of my life?

Can you wiggle your ears, Or curl your tongue? Do you like dogs or cats? Or maybe even bears?

What's your favorite color? Is it red or yellow or blue? I'd really like to know, So please tell me a bit about you.

So yeah, I have some questions, But I'm sure you do, too. I'll answer them if you ask, So just tell me some stuff dude.

Someone has a crush, and the speaker is trying to work out how to say so without saying it outright. The opening stanza admits the feeling: the other person doesn't do anything special, just talks and pays attention, yet that's enough to leave the speaker flustered and sure they're one of a kind.

After that, the poem becomes a string of questions. Some are ordinary, like favorite music, colors, or whether they prefer dogs or cats. Others are playful, like wiggling ears or curling tongues. Tucked in among them is a bolder one: would you talk to me for the rest of my life? It slips in lightly, but it shows how much the speaker hopes for.

The mood is sweet, shy, and a little goofy. The simple rhymes and casual ending ("just tell me some stuff dude") make the speaker sound nervous and sincere, using small talk as a way to get closer.

Thank You For Being Kind

I'm glad you didn't make a disgusted sound When she asked if we were dating, Cause that would have really broke my heart And I'm not sure I'd be able to talk to you if you did.

Do your eyes follow me The way mine follow you? I know sometimes you watch me, I don't really mind, you know.

If I Awoke Inside Your Body

If I awoke inside your body, I'd treat it with such care. I'd be so gentle with it, You'd never know I had been there.
