A Little of You
Echoes of Love: A Melody of Memories in 'A Little of You'
Lyrics
Today, I put on your favorite shirt
Putting on the partner's favorite shirt as a sentimental gesture.
I know you won't see me but what can it hurt
Acknowledging the partner won't see the gesture but doing it anyway.
It's just a piece of your memory that stayed behind
The shirt represents a tangible piece of the partner's memory.
It hangs in my closet and here in my mind
The memory is both physically present (in the closet) and in the person's thoughts.
Oh, oh, in everything that I do
Expressing the pervasive influence of the partner in everything the person does.
There will always be a little of you
Reiterating that traces of the partner persist in various aspects of life.
In my soul emblazoned and blue
Describing a deep emotional connection, with the soul being marked and feeling blue (sad).
There will always be a little of you
Continuing to emphasize the enduring presence of the partner's influence.
In every smile I have to force on my face
Highlighting the effort to put on a happy face despite inner struggles.
In every tear that I ever taste
Referencing the experience of sadness, with tears being a manifestation of emotional pain.
In every victory that I like to share
Connecting the partner to both triumphs and sharing those moments.
In every loss when I wish you were there beside me
Expressing a longing for the partner's presence in times of loss.
Oh, oh, in everything that I do
Repeating the theme of the partner's enduring influence in various actions.
There will always be a little of you
Stressing the constant presence of the partner's influence.
In my soul emblazoned and blue
Describing the deep emotional impact, with the soul being marked and feeling blue (sad).
There will always be a little of you
Reiterating the idea that the partner's influence is permanent.
I'm all over the pain
Acknowledging overcoming pain but bearing scars as lasting reminders.
But the scars remain to remind me
Emphasizing that the emotional wounds may heal, but the memories persist.
Oh, oh, in everything that I do
Repeating the idea that the partner's influence is present in all actions.
There will always be a little of you
Reiterating the constant and lasting presence of the partner's influence.
In my soul emblazoned and blue
Describing the deep emotional connection, with the soul being marked and feeling blue (sad).
There will always be a little of you
Emphasizing that the partner's influence endures.
Oh, oh, there's a little of you
Repeating the notion that there will always be a part of the partner in the person.
