Underflow
Navigating Love's Undercurrent: Emma Louise's Melodic Reflection
Lyrics
How much time is left?
Expressing concern about the limited time available.
Before the sun is gone
Anticipating the disappearance of the sun, possibly metaphorical for dark times.
And our hearts are banned
Suggesting emotional barriers preventing open-heartedness.
Crying in our palms
Describing a scene of emotional distress and vulnerability.
And I put my white flag in the wind
Symbolizing surrender or truce, putting up a white flag in the wind.
To let love know I'm giving in
Conveying a willingness to surrender to love.
I put my white flag in the wind
Reiterating the act of surrender through a white flag in the wind.
And I feel it in the underflow
Emphasizing the emotional impact felt in the hidden or suppressed aspects (underflow).
I feel it in the underflow
-I feel it in the underflow
-And we miss each other in the dark
Describing the difficulty of connecting in challenging circumstances.
Like ships in the night
Metaphorically comparing the missed connections to ships passing in the night.
And I cried a puddle
Expressing a deep emotional reaction, tears forming a puddle.
Deep into the valley of shoulder blades
Describing a profound emotional experience in the valley of shoulder blades.
And I breathe smoke into the sky
Using smoke as a metaphor for expressing emotions to the sky.
To let love know I'm getting high
Indicating an intention to elevate emotions, possibly through substances.
There'll be no rest tonight
Suggesting a restless night, possibly due to emotional turmoil.
And I feel it in the underflow
Reiteration of feeling emotions in the hidden or suppressed aspects.
I feel it in the underflow
-I feel it in the underflow
-But all I want is to feel your love
Expressing a desire for tangible, physical love.
In a physical form not from over the ocean
Contrasting physical presence with distant, digital forms of connection.
Just to feel you breathe from beside of me
Yearning for the physical presence and breath of a loved one.
Not in a digital form from across the sea
Highlighting the inadequacy of digital forms of connection.
And all I want is to feel your love
Repeating the desire for tangible, physical love.
In a physical form not from over the ocean
Reiterating the preference for physical closeness over distant connections.
Just to feel you breathe from underneath me
Describing the desire to feel a loved one's breath from close proximity.
Skin on skin and heat on heat
Emphasizing the intimacy of physical closeness.
And I feel it in the underflow
Repeating the emotional impact felt in the hidden or suppressed aspects.
I feel it in the underflow
-I feel it in the underflow
