Aphrodite
Dancing with Fate: A Love Tale of Aphrodite's Web
Lyrics
Well, I was caught in the web of Aphrodite
Feeling ensnared by Aphrodite's influence or allure
By dumb luck, much to my surprise
Unexpectedly and inadvertently caught in Aphrodite's web
I was taken here by my own will
Voluntarily led to this situation by personal choice
And now she's moving slowly and closing in
Her approach is deliberate, and the narrator feels her presence
Don't know where it ends but now it begins
Uncertain where the encounter will lead but recognizing its beginning
She slowly moves in
Aphrodite's slow, deliberate movement towards a goal
For the kill
Her intention to conquer or achieve something
She's not coming home tonight
Aphrodite is not returning home, emphasizing her absence
She's not coming home tonight, no
-She's not coming home tonight
-My dear, sweet Aphrodite
Expressing endearment towards Aphrodite despite her absence
Where's she gone, I don't know
Uncertainty about Aphrodite's whereabouts and whether the narrator will be affected
Is she coming back I'm not sure
-Will she take my soul
-Along for the ride?
-I would beg and I would plead for her to stay
Desire for her to stay, conflicted emotions about expressing this desire
But I don't want to come across that way
-I would bail my eyes out and begin to cry
-But not for you, oh Aphrodite
-She's not coming home tonight
Reiteration of Aphrodite's absence and the narrator's affection towards her
She's not coming home tonight, no
-She's not coming home tonight
-My dear, sweet Aphrodite
-From now on when I see the old moon
Hoping for Aphrodite's return, expressing longing and a plea for her presence
And I'm out on the prowl
-I pray someday you'll be coming home soon
-And to that moon I'll howl
-Oh, my dear, sweet Aphrodite
An affectionate reference to Aphrodite
She's not coming home tonight
Continued emphasis on Aphrodite's absence and the narrator's emotional attachment
She's not coming home tonight
-She's not coming home tonight
-My dear, sweet Aphrodite
-Oh, my dear, sweet Aphrodite
Reiteration of the narrator's sentiment towards Aphrodite
Aphrodite
