Warm and Stupid
Eternal Yearning: Warm and Stupid Chronicles of Love's Complexity
Lyrics
New deer in the headlights, bathe in the first rays
New experiences are overwhelming, akin to a deer caught in the headlights, basking in the initial moments.
Feeling warm and stupid with nothing I can say
Feeling a combination of warmth and foolishness, unable to express oneself.
When the current to the future
When the transition to the future occurs.
Shorts out, confuses with a spark
The transition is tumultuous, creating confusion and sparks.
Maybe we should pull ourselves together and try to say
Suggesting a need to regroup and communicate despite the cold response, advocating persistence.
You really shouldn't mind the cold, not mean but and insist anyways
Advising not to be bothered by the cold attitude, but to persist in communication.
The brisk air is just a warm-up
The cold reception is a preparation for the warmth of intimacy.
For your breath against my face
Anticipation of the closeness, with breath against the face.
I see now, we'd been too eager
Realization that eagerness led to overlooking certain aspects.
With our eyes rolled back in our heads
Description of a moment with eyes rolled back in ecstasy.
But my teeth, they keep on sinking
The speaker acknowledges the persistence of certain issues represented by sinking teeth.
Like I'll never love again
Expressing a fear of never experiencing love again.
Handful of footsteps and dice past the green light
A few steps and a risky move, likened to a game with dice, under the green light.
by yours, my eyes pole vault as your window starts to come in sight
The speaker's attention is drawn by someone (yours), and anticipation builds as their window comes into view.
It's a fine time for a strong love
It's an opportune time for a robust and enduring love.
Lacking fine lines and white gloves
Describing a genuine love that doesn't adhere to formalities.
There are some old things we could let go of
Suggesting the need to let go of old baggage for a healthier relationship.
Cause being wrong is just like being right
Philosophizing that being wrong is akin to being right in the grand scheme of things.
We owe each other nothing
Emphasizing a lack of obligation between the individuals involved.
We can dance, tread soft or disappoint
The relationship can involve dancing, delicate interactions, or occasional disappointments.
Fumbling, floating, could turn to swimming
Describing the evolving nature of the relationship, from fumbling to potentially swimming in deeper emotions.
Til we're sinking to sleep in the dark
Suggesting a progression of intimacy leading to sleep in the dark.
I could try to stop the daydream
The speaker acknowledges the difficulty of stopping daydreams, possibly related to idealized thoughts.
But tonight it'll start anew
Despite efforts, the daydreams persist and will restart anew.
With a current to the future
A repetition of the theme of transitioning to the future, where the speaker remains in love.
Where I'm still in love with you
Expressing a continued love in the future.
Still in love with you
Reiteration of being still in love with the person.
I'm in love with you
A straightforward declaration of being in love.
