Cindy, Cindy
Yearning Melodies: Embracing Love Through Nature's Whispers
Lyrics
Wish I was an apple dangling from a tree
Expressing a desire to be an appealing object for the person's attention.
Every time you'd pass me by you would take a bite of me
Describing the wish for the person to show affection or interest.
I wish I was a bluebird, I'd never fly away
Expressing a desire for closeness and commitment, comparing to a loyal bluebird.
I'd sit up on your shoulder, baby, and sing to you all day
Imagining a close, intimate connection where the singer can serenade the person.
Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home Cindy, Cindy
Repeated call for the person named Cindy to come back home and be with the singer.
Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home to me
-I wrote it in a letter, carved it on a tree
Describing various ways the singer has expressed love for Cindy, emphasizing sincerity.
I told it to a honeycomb, who told it to a bee
-Told him that I love you, they all know it's true
-Say it 'til the cows come home until it gets to you
-Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home Cindy, Cindy
Reiterating the plea for Cindy to come home and be with the singer.
Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home with me
-Need you in the morning to start the coffee pot
Expressing the singer's dependency on Cindy throughout the day and confessing intense love.
Need you in the afternoon to fan me when I'm hot
-Need you in the evening when supper time is through
-What I'm really tryin' to say is I can't get enough of you
-Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home Cindy, Cindy
Repeated call for Cindy to come home and be with the singer.
Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home to me
-If I were a musician, I'd harp on just one thing
Using metaphorical language about a musician to express the depth of longing for sincere love.
You should never play my harp the way you pluck a string
-If only you would love me, sincerely tell me so
-I'd beat two drums about it, baby, to let the whole world know
-Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home Cindy, Cindy
Repeating the invitation for Cindy to come home and be with the singer.
Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home with me
-Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home Cindy, Cindy
Reiterating the plea for Cindy to come home and be with the singer.
Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home with me
-Come on home Cindy, Cindy, come on home Cindy, Cindy
Final plea for Cindy to come home, emphasizing the urgency and desire for her presence.
