Drop Cherries
Whispers of Love: Unveiling Hidden Meanings in Billie Marten's 'Drop Cherries'
Lyrics
Wash my hair
Washing my hair
With that jam jar on the side there
Using a jam jar on the side for some purpose
Making shadows in the air
Creating shadows in the air
Candlelit and bare
Being in a candlelit and bare environment
Skin to water down
Watering down the skin, possibly a metaphor for diluting emotions
To put love on the ground
Putting love on the ground
I drop cherries at your door
Dropping cherries at someone's door
When you ask for more
Responding when asked for more
I don't know what I'm here for
Uncertainty about the purpose of being there
To bathe in perfect color
Bathing in perfect color, possibly seeking an idealized experience
Paint me in the red
Being painted in the color red, which may carry symbolic meaning
Pages curling in the wet
Pages of a book curling in the wet, suggesting damage or neglect
There are books I've never read
Having unread books
Many weathers to collect
Collecting experiences in various weathers
And spill over the carpet
Spilling over on the carpet, possibly referring to emotional overflow
Blood as pure as this
Blood described as pure, connected with a kiss
Fastened with a kiss
Fastened with a kiss, suggesting a bond or connection
I drop cherries at your door
Repeating the act of dropping cherries at the door
When you ask for more
Responding when asked for more again
I don't know what I'm here for
Uncertainty about the purpose of being there again
When you ask for more
Responding when asked for more again
I drop cherries at your door
Repeating the act of dropping cherries at the door again
When you ask for more
Responding when asked for more again
Now I know what I'm here for
Discovering the purpose of being there
