Bubblegum on My Shoe
Stuck with You: Bubblegum Love in Saturday Morning Bliss
Lyrics
It's Saturday morning
Setting the scene on a Saturday morning
We're still in bed
Still in bed, possibly a moment of intimacy or laziness
And I wonder
Expressing curiosity or contemplation
If you ever
Suggesting a questioning or uncertain feeling about the relationship
Feel we're doing this all wrong
Doubting the correctness of their actions together
Sometimes I'm unhappy
Admitting occasional unhappiness
Like the sky I'm blue
Using a metaphor (sky being blue) to convey sadness
Then you jump on me
Partner playfully engages to uplift the mood
'Til I'm smiling
Partner's actions bring a smile, attributing happiness to them
And it's all because of you
Attributing overall positive feelings to the partner
I see you try so hard to be everything that I need
Observing partner's effort to fulfill needs
And I still don't know how I could be so lucky
Expressing gratitude and disbelief at the luck of having such a partner
I try to push you far away, but then you say I'm stuck with you
Confessing attempts to create distance but acknowledging being 'stuck' with the partner
Like bubblegum on my shoe
Using a simile to describe the persistence of the relationship (bubblegum on shoe)
I guess I'm stuck with you
Acknowledging the inevitability of being together
Like bubblegum on my shoe
Reiterating the metaphor of being stuck together like bubblegum
It's just me and you
Emphasizing the connection between the two
It's late in the evening
Shifting the setting to late evening and cold weather
It's cold outside
Highlighting the external coldness
And you try to snuggle with me
Describing an attempt at physical closeness despite the cold
With your cold feet
Specifically mentioning the partner's cold feet, a playful detail
And I let you 'cuz it makes you happy
Allowing the closeness because it brings happiness to the partner
When I look in your eyes
Expressing a positive vision of the future when looking into the partner's eyes
I see my life as the way I want it to be
Seeing the ideal life with the partner
And that's with you
Acknowledging the partner as an essential part of the envisioned life
And I know that you can see it too
Believing that the partner shares the same vision
Yea, you try so hard to be everything that I need
Reiterating the partner's effort to meet needs
And I still don't know how I could be so lucky
Expressing continued disbelief at the luck of having such a partner
I try to push you far away, but then you say I'm stuck with you
Repeating the pattern of trying to create distance but acknowledging being 'stuck'
Like bubblegum on my shoe
Using the bubblegum metaphor again to describe the persistence of connection
I guess I'm stuck with you
Acknowledging the inevitability of being together
Like bubblegum on my shoe
Reiterating the metaphor of being stuck together like bubblegum
It's just me and you
Emphasizing the connection between the two
Like bubblegum on my shoe
Repeating the bubblegum metaphor
I guess I'm stuck with you
Acknowledging the inevitability of being together
Like bubblegum on my shoe
Reiterating the metaphor of being stuck together like bubblegum
It's just me and you
Emphasizing the connection between the two
It's Saturday morning
Returning to the Saturday morning setting
And I'm glad I'm stuck to you for the rest of my life
Expressing contentment and commitment to being 'stuck' with the partner
