Hello Sweetheart
Hello Sweetheart: Reflections on Love, Deception, and Moving On
Lyrics
Hello?
Greeting or attempt to establish contact.
Well hello sweetheart
Friendly term of endearment.
It's been awhile
Acknowledging the passage of time since the last interaction.
New pretty makeup
Observation of new makeup, suggesting a change in appearance.
Is hiding that fake smile
Suspicions about the authenticity of the displayed smile.
I liked your makeup
Nostalgia for a simpler time when makeup was different.
You wore for me
Positive reminiscence about a past makeup choice.
So plain and simple
Contrasting the simplicity of the past makeup with potential deception.
But so misleading
Reflecting on the misleading nature of simplicity.
You called me up tonight
Recollection of a recent phone call or conversation.
Saying I was wrong and you were right
Conflict or disagreement recounted from the past.
Then you say to me
Continuation of the conversation, perhaps addressing unresolved issues.
I wanna be your baby
Expressing a desire to have a close relationship.
I wanna be your baby
Reiteration of the desire to be close.
I wanna be your baby tonight
Expressing a specific desire for closeness tonight.
Hello sweetheart
Repeating the friendly greeting.
Don't wanna be your honey
Declining a romantic relationship.
You had your shot last year
Referencing a missed opportunity for romance in the past year.
Now all you want is my money
Accusation of financial motives in the current interaction.
Let me tell you something
Asserting a statement or delivering a message.
You had me at hello
Recalling a memorable initial encounter.
That night was special
Acknowledging a special past event.
But it's high time for you to go
Indicating that it's time for the other person to leave.
It's time to go
Emphasizing the need for departure.
It's time to go
Repetition emphasizing the urgency of leaving.
It's time to go
Continuation of the urgent message.
It's time to…
Interruption or abrupt end to the message.
I wanna be your baby
Reiteration of the desire to be close.
I wanna be your baby
Restating the wish for intimacy.
I wanna be your baby tonight
Specifically desiring closeness tonight.
Don't wanna be your baby
Declining a romantic relationship once again.
Don't wanna be your baby
Repetition of the reluctance to be romantically involved.
Don't wanna be your baby tonight
Emphasizing the rejection of a romantic connection tonight.
Don't wanna be your baby
Reiterating the rejection of being romantically involved.
Don't wanna be your baby
Restating the rejection of romantic entanglement.
Don't wanna be your baby tonight
Emphasizing the current reluctance to be romantically involved.
Yeah!
Expression of agreement or confirmation.
