What Else Can I Say

Chicago

Where are you taking me?
I can't follow you there
What do you have in mind?
You know that I don't care

Where do you think I'm at?
I thought I made it clear
Please don't follow me back down
While I'm standing here

Early in the morning
Waiting for me to rise
The light of a new day dawning
Catches the sun in her eyes

Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm standing here
And it's clear
I miss her
Tonight, she's so far away
What else can I say?
Because I know that she'll never let me down
And I know that she's gonna love me too

Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm standing here
And it's clear
I need her
Tonight, she's so far away
What else can I say?
Because I know that she'll never let me down
And I know that she's gonna love me too

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

    I think this song is about a woman that he broke up with and now he realizes how good she was to him, so he wants her back. But she's "far away". Maybe literally, or just too far from him to get back with, as in maybe she already committed to someone else? The first verse sounds like the breakup. The second verse, I'm thinking maybe he woke up in the morning and visualized her being there next to him. The choruses are just him admitting he misses her dearly and wants her back.

Shudder to Think
This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation. Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.
