Lyrics
He came in
Introduction of a person entering the scene
Like a winner
Portrays the person's entrance with a victorious aura
Strong and slim
Describing the person as physically fit and slender
Trophies in his grin
Indicates a confident and proud expression, possibly arrogant
I can see him taking wind
Suggests the person is considering the consequences or benefits
Of what it would be like
Reflecting on the imagination of being together
To lie with me
Desire for intimacy, longing to be with the person
To lie with me
Repetition emphasizes the longing for closeness
Can you take me?
Direct request or plea to be taken
He came in
Introduction of a different aspect of the person
Like a sinner
Contrast to the earlier winning portrayal, now depicted as a sinner
Small and grim
Describing the person as small and gloomy
Trophies to the wind
Despite negativity, still carrying some form of achievements
He can see me wondering
Awareness of being observed or judged
Of what it has been like
Wondering about past experiences of deceit
To lie to me
Reflection on the act of lying to the speaker
(This winter)
Describing emotions during a specific winter period, possibly a metaphor for a cold phase in the relationship
To not come home to me
-(This winter)
-To grow cold towards me
-(This winter)
-To feel annoyed of me
-(This winter)
-Can you take me higher?
Asking to be elevated emotionally or spiritually
There is nothing finer
Expressing that nothing surpasses the current state
Feel my desire
Conveying strong romantic feelings and passion
Our love is my fire
Declaring that the love shared is the speaker's source of warmth
Can you take me higher?
Repetition of the plea for elevation or transcendence
There was nothing finer
Affirmation that there is nothing superior to the current state
In me there's desire
Expressing personal desire within the speaker
Our love was my fire
Affirming that the love experienced was a significant source of passion
