Hippie Love
Embracing Imaginary Longings: Unraveling As Docinhas' 'Hippie Love'
Lyrics
Why a thing that doesn't exist make me sad
Why the absence of something imaginary evokes sadness in me
Like love, give me love
Expressing a desire for love
Why a thing that doesn't exist make me sad
Reiteration of the emotional impact of the non-existent
Like love, give me love
Repetition of the plea for love
So darling when I look at you I see the world
Seeing the world in the presence of a significant other
And the world is mine
Claiming ownership of the world when looking at a loved one
But you are as owner of the world as I
Acknowledging the shared sense of ownership
So, darling when I look at you I see the world
Reiteration of seeing the world in the beloved's eyes
And the world is mine
Reiterating the sense of shared ownership
But you are as owner of the world as I
Emphasizing the equal claim to the world
So why
Pondering the reason behind certain actions
Why won't you be awake at 7.am
Expressing a desire for the beloved to be awake at a specific time
Like in a usual day
Comparing the desire to a typical day's routine
Why, why won't you turn your head to the other side
Questioning why the beloved won't face a different direction
Where you can't hear what they say
Referring to a place where the beloved can't hear negative remarks
Like in a usual day
Linking the situation to a typical day
Why a thing that doesn't exist make me so sad
Reflecting on the emotional impact of the non-existent, like love
Like love, like love
Reiteration of the emotional impact of the non-existent love
Why a thing that doesn't exist make me so sad
Continuation of the reflection on the absence of love
Like love, give me love
Repetition of the plea for love
HEEEEEEEEEYYY
Expressive interjection
Hello daddy
Greeting the father
Hello mum
Greeting the mother
I'm your
Self-identification as a hippie
H-H-H-Hippie
Stating the identity as a hippie with emphasis
Hello world I'm a white girl
Greeting the world with a self-identification as a white girl
Ahahahah
Laughter, possibly expressing joy or irony
