Lovers Do
Love's Echo: Unveiling the Soulful Journey of Emotions
Lyrics
Choose
Choosing, making a decision
You own your blues
Owning and embracing one's sadness or troubles
Like lovers do
Similar to how lovers handle their emotions
Once more
Emphasizing a repeated experience or cycle
This is what hope is for
Expressing the purpose of hope in facing challenges
And all the lovers that came
Reflecting on past relationships
Before
Acknowledging those who were in love before
I'll know
Repetition for emphasis or certainty
I'll know
-I'll know
-That what I'll give
Assuring that what is offered is readily accepted
Is easy to take
Comparing the ease of acceptance to bullets from a gun
Like bullets from a gun
Metaphorical references to challenges or obstacles
Like things behind the sun
-Makes me proud
Expressing pride in what is given
I won't have to
Anticipating a reduction in emotional pain
Hurt so loud
-An empty hotel
Imagery of a quiet, dark hotel room and a sparking heart
Silent and dark
-And then my heart sparks
-Won't be a guest and
-Get undressed
-Like lovers do
Describing a familiar intimacy, as lovers undress
Wane
Describing a decrease, possibly in emotions
Down lover's lane
Guiding through the path of love and its consequences
Make a right on lovers shame
-And hold on
Encouraging persistence and holding on in love
Hold
-Hold on
-'Cause then a long time comes
Reflecting on the passage of time and the growth of the night
And a long time goes
-And the night grows
-'Cause what I'll give
Reiterating the ease of acceptance
Is easy to take
Various metaphors for the ease of acceptance
Like bullets from a gun
-Like things behind the sun
-Like wine from a drunk
-Like food from bodies shrunk
-Makes me proud
Reiterating pride in what is given
I won't have to
Expecting a reduction in emotional pain
Hurt so loud
-An empty hotel
Imagery of an empty hotel room, a sparking heart, and undressing
Silent and dark
-And then my heart sparks
-Won't be a guest and
-Get undressed
-Like lovers do
Re-emphasizing the intimacy of undressing like lovers
I'm empty you said
Describing a feeling of emptiness
Like you were naming
Comparing emptiness to an expansive ocean
An ocean
Metaphorically referencing a shipwrecked soul
Shipwrecked soul
Causing a disturbance or stir
Causing a commotion
Depicting intense scrutiny with laser-like eyes
And staring at the seams
-With eyes like laser beams
-You got up and floated
-Into the kitchen
Describing movement, possibly a departure into the kitchen
