Something Special
Unveiling Love's Mystery: Eric Clapton's Something Special
Lyrics
She's something special, I can't explain it,
Expressing that the subject of the song is unique and special in a way that is difficult to articulate.
But when she's near me, I can't contain it.
When in close proximity to the special person, the emotions become overwhelming and hard to control.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.
A single glance at her face is sufficient to bring satisfaction or joy to the speaker.
No way of knowing which way I'm going,
Uncertainty about the future and the direction of the speaker's feelings.
But I can't stop it, it keeps on growing.
Despite the uncertainty, the feelings for the special person continue to intensify.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.
Reiterating that the mere sight of her face brings contentment.
She ain't too pretty, she ain't too tall,
Describing the physical appearance of the special person, emphasizing that she may not conform to conventional standards of beauty.
In fact she ain't too much of anything at all.
Highlighting that she doesn't possess extraordinary qualities, but the speaker doesn't mind.
I don't care what the people say,
Expressing indifference to others' opinions about the special person.
They're going to find out some sweet day.
Confident that people will eventually realize the special qualities of the person being described.
She is precious, she is charming,
Using positive adjectives to characterize the special person.
She is so innocent it's really disarming.
Emphasizing the innocence of the special person, finding it charming.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.
Repeating the idea that a single look at her face is enough for the speaker's satisfaction.
She's something special, I can't explain it,
Reiteration of the uniqueness and difficulty in explaining what makes her special.
But when she's near me, I can't contain it.
Reiterating the overwhelming feelings when in close proximity to the special person.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.
Reaffirming that a glance at her face is sufficient for happiness.
She is precious, she is charming,
Repeating positive adjectives to describe the special person.
She is so innocent it's really disarming.
Emphasizing the innocence of the special person as particularly disarming.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me,
Reiterating the idea that a single look at her face is enough for the speaker's satisfaction.
Is good enough for me,
Emphasizing again that a single look at her face is sufficient.
Is good enough for me.
Concluding by repeating that a single look at her face is enough for the speaker's contentment.
