Something Like Love
Chasing Warmth: Unraveling the Emotions in 'Something Like Love'
Lyrics
I can feel it all around
I sense a pervasive feeling in my surroundings.
Your words, frozen in the air
Your spoken words seem to linger in the atmosphere, suspended.
Fall and shatter down on the ground
They eventually descend and break apart upon reaching the ground.
Darling, when did you get so cold
Addressing a significant change in your emotional warmth.
Let me bleed away every bit of my warmth
Expressing a willingness to sacrifice personal warmth to help you.
Oh
Repetition of "Oh" for emphasis or emotional expression.
Oh
-I want you to feel something like love
Desire for you to experience a feeling resembling love, even if it causes pain.
I don't care if it's me it hurts
-Oh
-Want you to feel something like love
-Oh
-Want you to feel something like love
-Don't know how it got this way
Uncertainty about the current state of the relationship and inability to influence your decision to stay.
Maybe there's nothing I can do
-To make you stay
-Darling, when did you get so cold
Observing a perceived emotional coldness and expressing a willingness to sacrifice personal warmth again.
Let me bleed away every bit of my warmth
-Oh
Repetition of the desire for you to feel a semblance of love despite potential pain.
Oh
-I want you to feel something like love
-I don't care if it's me it hurts
-Oh
-Want you to feel something like love
-Oh
-Want you to feel something like love
-Darling, let me lie down on the stone
Offering oneself as a sacrifice to bring warmth to your cold demeanor.
Asacrifice to bring some warmth
-To your cold and chattering bones
-Baby, I want you to need something
Expressing a desire for you to need, see, and believe in something.
Maybe to see something
-Maybe believe something
-Oh
Repetition of the desire for you to feel a semblance of love despite potential pain.
Oh
-I want you to feel something like love
-I don't care if it's me it hurts
-Oh
-Want you to feel something like love
-Oh
-Want you to feel something like love
-Oh
Final repetition of the desire for you to feel something akin to love.
Want you to feel something like love
