Infatuation is the conviction that a particular person, usually unattainable, is the perfect embodiment of embodiment. The protagonist in this song cannot get his beloved out of his mind, and longs for the day when he can transform his desires into action, but in the meantime he enjoys thinking about what he could do, what he would do, if only he could bridge that chasm between distance and intimacy. |
