Sweet Loaf
Sweet Loaf of Love: A Melodic Journey Through Desire and Liberation
Lyrics
When I first met you I didn't realise
Initial lack of awareness about the potential challenges in the relationship.
Things could go sideways, I wanna make it right
Expressing a desire to correct and improve the situation.
When you hold my hand and shield me from the rain
Symbolic gesture of protection and comfort during difficult times.
I feel no pain when I've got you with me
Feeling no emotional pain when the person is present.
I'd open my window and see you before noon
Expressing the joy of seeing the person early in the day.
And we'd go waltzing Matilda round my room
Imagining a carefree and joyful time together.
You held me so tight in a grip like vice
Describing a strong and secure embrace.
I don't think twice when I know you're near me
No hesitation or doubt when the person is close.
First she set me free
Initial freedom granted by the person.
Then she made me feel at home
Feeling a sense of belonging and comfort in the relationship.
Now she won't let me be
Current feeling of being restricted by the person.
She won't leave me alone
Expressing a sense of being constantly pursued or bothered.
But I don't mind that she wants me to stay
Acceptance of the person's desire for the relationship to continue.
Cause I know that feeling and it drives me insane
Acknowledging the intense and maddening nature of the connection.
And I don't even need it
Indicating a lack of personal necessity for the relationship.
Although I tried to make her mine she made me hers
Attempts to make the person 'mine' were unsuccessful.
So I walked away but without her I was worse
Experiencing a sense of emptiness or dissatisfaction without the person.
I wish I could see her all of the time
Expressing a desire to be with the person more frequently.
But I just could not ever make that girl mine
Acknowledging difficulty in establishing a more committed relationship.
First she set me free
Reiteration of the initial freedom given by the person.
Then she made me feel at home
Reinforcement of the sense of comfort provided by the person.
Now she won't let me be
Current feeling of being unable to break free from the person.
She won't leave me alone
Emphasizing the persistent and intrusive nature of the person.
When I first met you I didn't realise
Repetition of the initial lack of awareness about challenges in the relationship.
Sweet leaf I love you but sweet loaf am I
Expressing affection for the person ('Sweet leaf') while feeling overwhelmed ('Sweet loaf').
She wants me to stay
Confirmation of the person's desire for the relationship to continue.
And I know that feeling cause it drives me insane
Acknowledging the intense and maddening nature of the connection (repeated).
And I don't even need it
Reiterating the lack of personal necessity for the relationship (repeated).
