I've Got Your Music
Digital Love and the Echoes of Loss: Saint Etienne's Musical Embrace
Lyrics
When I'm alone
Expressing a feeling of loneliness
In my phones
Referring to being engrossed in headphones or technology
I feel love
Finding love or connection through music in a digital format
In digital stereo
Describing the experience of stereo sound in a digital context
We're hand in glove
Symbolizing a close and harmonious relationship
I can't lose you
Expressing a fear of losing someone important
I move with the music
Emphasizing a connection between movement and music
The music moves with me
Highlighting the reciprocal relationship between the individual and music
I can't let go
Reiterating the difficulty of letting go
I can't let
Repeatedly expressing the struggle to let go
I can't let go
-I can't let go, go, go
-Everywhere I go
Describing the pervasive nature of music in one's thoughts and emotions
Round and round it goes inside my head
-I'm deep in the world
-And on the surface still you're gone
-Everywhere I go
-Round and round it goes inside my head
-I'm deep in the world
-And on the surface still you're gone
-On and on and on (keep on playing)
Encouraging the continuation of music as a positive influence
Give me one more song (Please I'm praying)
-You can do no wrong (And I'm staying)
-Deep in the world
-Everywhere I go
Repeating the theme of music's deep impact on the individual
Round and round it goes inside my head
-I'm deep in the world
-And on the surface still you're gone
-Everywhere I go
-Round and round it goes inside my head
-I'm deep in the world
-And on the surface still you're gone
-When I'm alone
Reintroducing the feeling of being alone
In my phones
Recalling the connection between love, technology, and music
I feel love
-In digital stereo
-We're hand in glove
-I can't lose you
-I move with the music
-The music moves with me
-I can't let go
Reiterating the struggle to let go
I can't let
-I can't let go
-I can't let go, go, go
-Everywhere I go
Reemphasizing the all-encompassing influence of music
Round and round it goes inside my head
-I'm deep in the world
-And on the surface still you're gone
-Everywhere I go
-Round and round it goes inside my head
-I'm deep in the world
-And on the surface still you're gone
-On and on and on
Expressing a desire for the perpetual enjoyment of music
Give me one more song
-You can do no wrong
-Deep in the world
Highlighting the immersion of the individual in the world of music
