Favorite Book
Seasons of Love: A Stolen Favorite Book and Uncharted Waters
Lyrics
When you asked me what my favorite book was
Expressing a moment when the speaker was asked about their favorite book.
Didn't expect you to steal it
Surprised by someone taking the favorite book without expecting it.
Bought a new one the very next day coffee stains still in it
Purchased a new copy the next day with coffee stains still present, indicating continued use.
I told you once a thousand times
Reiterating a previous statement multiple times, emphasizing its importance.
You rolled a blunt and said your fine
Partner rolling a blunt, claiming to be fine, but the speaker senses insincerity.
But I can tell that you don't mean it
Observing that the partner's actions don't align with their words, suggesting a lack of authenticity.
So if I want to leave and
Contemplating the idea of leaving to explore different life phases.
Go follow the seasons
Asking if the partner would remain supportive if the speaker pursues new experiences.
Would you still be there
Questioning the partner's commitment to staying in the relationship during potential changes.
Still be there
Repeating the inquiry about the partner's enduring presence in various circumstances.
If I fall overboard would you jump out and swim
Imagining a scenario of danger, questioning if the partner would actively help and support.
Keep reaching forward now we're searching for the wind
Symbolic reference to facing challenges together and navigating life's uncertainties.
So if I want to leave and
Revisiting the idea of leaving to explore different life phases.
Go follow the seasons
Checking if the partner's commitment would endure during the speaker's personal exploration.
Would you still be there
Emphasizing the question of the partner's presence through repetition.
Still be there
-Still be there
-Still be there
-Still be there
-Still be there
-When you asked me what my favorite book was
Reiteration of the initial question about the favorite book.
Didn't expect you to steal it
Expressing surprise and disappointment about the book being stolen.
Would you still be there
Repeating the question of the partner's enduring presence with variations.
Still be there
-Still be there
-Still be there
-Still be there
-Still be there
-Would you still be there
-Still be there
Final repetition of the question, seeking reassurance about the partner's commitment.
