Invisible Touch (1986)
In Too Deep
All that time I was searching
Nowhere to run
It started me thinking
Wondering what I could make of my life
And who'd be waiting
Asking all kinds of questions
To myself
But never finding the answers
Crying at the top of my voice
No one listening
All this time
I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised
How could I ever forget
Listen, you know I love you
But I just can't take this
You know I love you
But I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you
I'm not gonna make this
You know I want you
But I'm in too deep
So listen, listen to me
Ooh, you must believe me
I can feel your eyes go through me
But I don't know why
I know you're going
But I can't believe
It's the way that you're leaving
It's like we never knew each other at all
It may be my fault
I gave you too many reasons being alone
When I didn't want to
I thought you'd always be there
I almost believed you
All this time
I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised
How could I ever forget
Listen, you know I love you
But I just can't take this
You know I love you
But I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you
I'm not gonna make this
You know I want you
But I'm in too deep
So listen, listen to me
I can feel your eyes go through me
It seems I've spent too long
Only thinking about myself
Now I want to spend my life
Just caring about somebody else
But listen, you know I love you
But I just can't take this
You know I love you
But I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you
I'm not gonna make this
You know I want you
But I'm in too deep
You know I love you
But I just can't take this
You know I love you
But I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you
I'm not gonna make this
You know I want you
But I'm in too deep
(You know I love you but I just)
You know I love you
(But I just can't take this)
But I just can't take this
You know I love you
But I'm playing for keeps
(You know I love you)
Although I need you
I'm not gonna make this
(You know I love you)
You know I want you
But I'm in too deep
(You know I love you but I just)
You know I love you...

Essentially, the song is about a romantic relationship that is coming to a head. There are actually two narrators: let’s call them the guy and the girl. The guy seems to be uncertain about making a commitment—though he does make promises with his words. The woman is just starting to realize that his actions are not matching up.
The guy wants to stay together; he thinks they have a good thing going. However, the woman has come to a realization: she loves him, but she can’t take his lack of commitment anymore. She knows what she wants now. She loves him and needs him, but she’s in too deep. It is time to let go.
He is not ready to let go as he pleads, and admits things are his fault. He is getting concerned because she is no longer looking at him lovingly…she is looking right through him. But she has made up her mind. They both feel disappointment about the promises they made to each other. She believed him, but not anymore.
