I love this song......
can you tell me what is the meaning of this line:

"Pass that by me one more time"
thank you.....


Do that to me one more time
Once is never enough with a man like you
Do that to me one more time
I can never get enough of a man like you
Whoa-oh-oh, kiss like you just did
Oh, baby, do that to me once again

Pass that by me one more time
Once just isn't enough for my heart to hear
Whoa-oh-oh, tell it to me one more time
I can never hear enough while I got'ya near
Whoa-oh-oh, say those words again that you just did
Oh, baby tell it to me once again
..........

Hi Sandra ~

"Pass that by me one more time" is a colloquial way of saying, "Please repeat that again," "please say that again" ~ the idea being that in order for her heart to really get the 'message,' her heart needs for her ears to hear it more than once. Maybe, then, it'll really sink in ~ and her heart will know for sure. It has to do with verbal repetition of something loving, rather than repetition of various means of loving touch.

I hope that helps . There's likely to still be something, that someone else can add, to make it even clearer .

Oops wrong thread. I was aiming at Madeleine Peyroux.

It is written by Leonard !?! I know of "Please Don't Pass Me By" being sung by Leonard, but not of this, particular song here having been written by him .

ok ,,,,thank you Lizzy for that meaning.......wonderful indeed....
