Pull Me In Tighter Lyrics
There’s no need for depression
And no, I don’t have the blues
Wouldn’t want to go to heaven
If I can’t go there with you
And I still count my blessings
When I am standing with you
And no, I never learned my lesson
I’m still a dedicated fool
And baby, I will try for the sake of you and I
And baby, I will survive all the heartbreak love inspires
There’s no need for guessing
When you are faithfully true
Though my body may wander
My mind is always with you
And in the depths of destruction
There is but one golden rule
Look not unto your neighbor
Save yourself first, you silly fool
And baby, I will try for the sake of you and I
And baby, I will get by on whatever you provide
And baby, I will survive all the heartbreak love inspires
And baby, I will survive
Oh, I will survive
Pull me in tighter, pull me in tighter, yeah
Pull me in tighter, pull me in tighter, yeah
When you see me coming
Take off your running shoes
No arms and no weapons
When I am coming for you
And baby, I will try for the sake of you and I
And baby, I will get by on whatever you provide
And baby, I will survive all the heartbreak love inspires
And baby, I will survive
Oh, I will survive
Baby, I will survive
Oh, I will survive
And baby, I will survive
And no, I don’t have the blues
Wouldn’t want to go to heaven
If I can’t go there with you
When I am standing with you
And no, I never learned my lesson
I’m still a dedicated fool
And baby, I will survive all the heartbreak love inspires
When you are faithfully true
Though my body may wander
My mind is always with you
There is but one golden rule
Look not unto your neighbor
Save yourself first, you silly fool
And baby, I will get by on whatever you provide
And baby, I will survive all the heartbreak love inspires
And baby, I will survive
Oh, I will survive
Pull me in tighter, pull me in tighter, yeah
Take off your running shoes
No arms and no weapons
When I am coming for you
And baby, I will get by on whatever you provide
And baby, I will survive all the heartbreak love inspires
And baby, I will survive
Oh, I will survive
Oh, I will survive
And baby, I will survive

This song is gorgeous. It's more country-influenced than newer Rilo Kiley songs, but I have a soft spot in my heart for the older Rilo Kiley stuff.
I think what the lyrics in this song are saying is how dedicated the one person is to the other, and Jenny realizes that in the relationship will end and so she says "I will survive" but for now "pull me in tighter". Like, even though I know it'll end, I just want to enjoy the moment.
That's what I get out of it.
"In the depths of destruction, there is but one golden rule, look not unto your neighbour, save yourself first you silly fool", what is this "window" rubbish?
"There’s no need for guessing When you are faithfully true Though my body may wander My mind is always with you."
that's the heart of it right there. even though she's with someone else at the moment, she's still thinking of the person she's singing to. I love this song. I hope it's on the next album.
first its.. "And baby, I will try for the sake of you and I And baby, I will get by on whatever you provide"
And baby I will survive all the heartbreak love inspires doesn't come in till she sings before "pull me in tighter"

I love this song! Her voice is beautiful in it!
God, that first verse just pulls me in every time.
I just love the feel of this song, it's definitely not a country feel though.
I get this 50s' vibe from it. I don't know how?
