Love of Mine
Eternal Love's Reflection: Unveiling the Profound Meaning
Lyrics
Love of mine when you're born I tell myself that you'll never die
Expressing a hope or belief that the love will be eternal and transcend mortality.
And I throw my arms around the girl who finds you
Symbolic gesture of embracing someone who discovers the love, emphasizing its importance.
'Cause the world is rosier, through your eyes
Seeing the world in a more positive light through the perspective of the shared love.
I don't suppose you caught her name
Acknowledging a lack of information about the person who discovers the love.
Never mind I'll just name her after you, love of mine
Deciding to name the person after the beloved, implying a deep connection.
I'll fashion her into a sweet long legged icon making all praise holier
Creating an idealized image of the person who discovers the love, elevating her significance.
Satisfied
Expressing contentment or fulfillment resulting from the discovery of the love.
Oh, but she gave us to each other
Acknowledging that the shared love brought the speaker and the girl together.
The only thing she's done for me that you could never do
Highlighting a unique contribution of the girl, something the beloved could never provide.
For that she'll always be remembered
Ensuring the girl's lasting memory for her role in bringing the speaker and the beloved together.
After she discovers I don't love her half as much as you
Anticipating a revelation that the speaker doesn't love the girl as much as the beloved.
Love of mine when she goes why can't you stay
Expressing a desire for the beloved to stay when the girl departs.
Here with me
Yearning for the presence of the beloved when the girl is absent.
Love of mine when you die I tell myself that you'll never live
Paradoxically denying the concept of the beloved's death, emphasizing eternal love.
Even as I curse the girl who says she'll find someone worthier of the gift
Cursing a girl who claims to find someone more deserving of the love, expressing resentment.
Someone who wants to share it with her
Describing the girl's intention to share the love with someone else, introducing conflict.
Far away from those who take you, to have and to hold
Expressing concern about the beloved being taken away by others, both physically and emotionally.
Now I'm stuck here trying to not remember
Struggling to forget the girl's actions and the impact on the shared love.
For all these pretty words it wasn't her but love that I adored
Realizing that the captivating words and qualities were not the girl's, but the love's.
It's my love I adored
Clarifying that it is the love itself that is adored, not the girl.
Love of mine when you're born I tell myself, that you'll never die
Reiterating the belief in the eternal nature of the beloved's existence.
