Press

Paul McCartney

Darling, I love you very, very, very much,

And I really am relying on your touch.

But with all this people listening in,

I don't know where I ought to begin.

Maybe we could hit upon a word,

Something that the others haven't heard,

When you want me to love you,

Just tell me to press.

Right there, that's it. Yes. When you feel the stress,

Don't just stand there, tell me to press.

You can give me what I want I must confess,

My body needs attention my mind is in a mess,

Oklahoma was never like this.

Never like this, it was never like this,

Ever like this, say was it ever like this

Oklahoma was never like this.

It was never like this...

Darling, I know it really wouldn't be a crime,

If I say I want to love you all the time.

But with all these people listening in,

I don't know where I ought to begin.

Maybe we should have a secret code,

Before we both get ready to explode.

When you want me to love you,

Just tell me to press. Press...

Right there, that's it. Yes.

When you feel the stress,

Don't just stand there.

Won't you tell me to press

About this Song

Paul McCartney's song 'Press' from the United Kingdom falls under the genre of Pop-Rock. Written in English, it explores themes of love, connection, and communication. The song metaphorically uses the phrase 'press' to depict the act of opening up and expressing oneself candidly to a loved one. A particularly poignant moment is when McCartney sings about the simplicity of just pressing, hinting at the ease of honest communication and the release it brings.
