Wild Is the Wind
Embrace the Wild: Unraveling Love's Whims in Johnny Mathis' Melody
Lyrics
Love me, love me, say you do
Expressing a desire for love and confirmation of that love.
Let me fly away with you
Wishing to escape together with the person, seeking a shared journey.
For my love is like the wind
Comparing love to the wind, emphasizing its intangible and powerful nature.
And wild is the wind
Highlighting the untamed and unpredictable quality of the speaker's love.
Give me more than one caress
Requesting more affection, a plea to satisfy emotional longing.
Satisfy this hungriness
Asking for fulfillment of emotional needs through physical closeness.
Let the wind blow through your heart
Encouraging openness and vulnerability in the relationship.
For wild is the wind
Reiterating the idea that love is akin to the wild and free nature of the wind.
You touch me, I hear the sound of mandolins
Describing the sensory experience of touch with a musical metaphor.
You kiss me, and with your kiss the world begins
Attributing a transformative quality to kisses, suggesting a new beginning.
You're Spring to me, all things to me
Expressing the significant role of the person in the speaker's life.
You're life itself
Affirming the person's importance as the essence of life itself.
Like a leaf clings to a tree
Using a metaphor of a leaf clinging to a tree to convey a desire for closeness.
Oh, my darling, cling to me
Requesting emotional attachment and commitment.
For we're creatures of the wind
Acknowledging the transient and unpredictable nature of human emotions.
And wild is the wind, the wind
Repeating the theme that love, like the wind, is wild and uncontrollable.
Wild is my love for you
Affirming the speaker's passionate and unrestrained love for the person.
