Sweet Mistakes and Wings of Doves: Lydia Ainsworth's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
I don't care where you've been
I am indifferent to your past experiences and history.
You know I pay no mind to your sins
I don't pay attention to your wrongdoings or flaws.
But if you're not home by ten
If you're not home by ten, take your belongings and leave in a van.
Put all your money on a van, you can hit the road again
Abandon the relationship if you can't meet this deadline.
Mm, I got no time left for your gambling
I don't have time for your risky behavior, especially gambling.
Mm, you broke my phone to pieces with your incessant rambling
You've damaged our communication by talking excessively and without purpose.
You say, "I'll be back in touch with you around the bend"
You promise to reconnect in the future, but I doubt it.
Boy, best believe you won't be touching me ever again
You won't have the opportunity to be close to me again.
Ooh
Expressing emotion, possibly frustration or disappointment.
You cut me, cut me, cut me, cut me good
You hurt me deeply.
Ooh
Questioning the possibilities or limitations of what can be done.
What can I, can I, can I, can or can't I do?
Uncertainty about the options available or actions to take.
Ooh
Expressing emotion, possibly in response to pain or realization.
I'll fly away on the wings of doves
Desire to escape from the current situation.
Over valleys of snow and ice
Imagining a journey over difficult terrain to overcome emotional challenges.
To heal my heart
Seeking solace and healing for a wounded heart.
From the first cut of cake
Symbolic reference to the beginning of a relationship or experience.
To the time silence makes
From the initial celebration to the point where silence prevails.
You forever
A commitment to endure forever despite the challenges.
My sweet mistake
Referring to the relationship as a sweet mistake, acknowledging its complexities.
On wings of doves flies my heartache
Emotional pain is carried away, perhaps through metaphorical wings of doves.
