Love's Harmony: Ella Fitzgerald's Melodic Reflection on Endless Love
Lyrics
He loves and she loves,
Expressing mutual love between two individuals.
And they love
Reiterating the shared love between the couple.
So why can't you love
Pleading or questioning why the listener can't reciprocate the love.
And I love like too?
Expressing personal love and questioning why it's not returned.
Birds love and bees love
Referencing the universal theme of love in nature (birds, bees).
And whispering trees love,
Continuing the reference to nature, emphasizing the widespread presence of love.
And that's what we both should do.
Encouraging both individuals to embrace and express their love.
Oh I always knew someday you'd come along,
Expressing anticipation for the arrival of a significant other.
We'll make a twosome that just can't go wrong,
Confidently predicting a harmonious and successful partnership.
Hear me he loves and she loves
Reiterating the existence of love between others, encouraging the listener to acknowledge it.
And they love so won't you
Asking the listener to reciprocate the love that is observed in others.
Love me as I love you?
Pleading for the listener to love the speaker in return.
Oh I always knew someday you'd come along,
Repeating the anticipation of a destined meeting with a loved one.
We'll make a twosome that just can't go wrong,
Reiterating the confidence in a strong and enduring partnership.
Hear me he loves and she loves
Again emphasizing the love between others as a model for the listener.
And they love so won't you
Encouraging the listener to reciprocate the observed love.
Love me as I love you?
Repeating the plea for the listener to love the speaker.
Won't you love me, as I love you?
A final plea for reciprocated love, emphasizing the symmetry in their feelings.
