Isn't That So
Embrace Life's Currents: Isn't That So by Lyle Lovett Unveiled
Lyrics
Well, he knew what he was doin'
Expressing awareness or intent in an action
When he put eyes into my head
Referring to the creation or impact of attraction
If he didn't want me to lookin' at them pretty little women
Suggesting possessiveness or control over one's gaze
He'd'a left my ol' eyeballs dead
Emphasizing the consequence if the eyes were not functional
Isn't that so
Pose a rhetorical question about the correctness of a situation
Tell me, isn't that so
Reiterating the question for emphasis
You got to go when your heart says go
Advocating following one's heart when the feeling to move arises
Isn't that so
Repeating the rhetorical question to reinforce the theme
Well, he knew what he was doin'
Repeating the earlier sentiment of intentional creation
When he made that magic vine
Referring to a mystical or extraordinary vine
His own son got a reputation
Indicating a reputation for performing miracles
For turnin' water into wine
Specifically referencing turning water into wine
Isn't that so
Reiterating the rhetorical question with a slight variation
Tell me, isn't that so
Emphasizing the need to act in accordance with one's feelings
You got to go when your heart says go
Reiterating the advice to follow one's heart
Isn't that so
Repeating the rhetorical question for emphasis
Let that line of least resistance lead me on
Advocating for taking the path of least resistance
Let the line of least resistance lead me on
Repeating the idea of following the easiest path
Well, he know what he was doin'
Repeating the acknowledgment of intentional design
When he divided the high from the low
Referring to a divine separation between the high and low
You got to bury seed in the womb, my friend
Stressing the necessity of sowing seeds for growth
If you want the little seed to grow
Linking the concept of planting seeds with achieving growth
Now, isn't that so
Repeating the rhetorical question with affirmation
Isn't that so
Reaffirming the correctness of the situation
You got to go when your heart says go
Reiterating the advice to follow one's heart when prompted
Isn't that so
Repeating the affirmation of the rhetorical question
You got to go when your heart says go
Reiterating the idea of acting in accordance with one's feelings
Isn't that so
Repeating the rhetorical question with slight variation
Let that line of least resistance lead me on
Emphasizing the guidance of the easiest path
Let the line of least resistance lead me on
Repeating the idea of letting the path of least resistance guide
Let your heart, let your heart, your heart lead you on
Encouraging the heart to lead and make decisions
Let your heart, let your heart lead you on
Repeating the encouragement for the heart to lead
