Two Intangibles Can't Be Had
Love's Begging Dance: Unraveling the Intangibles in Sarah Jaffe's Melody
Lyrics
I love you in all the dangerous ways
I express my love for you in ways that may involve risk or harm.
I keep my heart in shape
I take care of my emotions and keep my heart prepared for your love.
For your love
My emotional readiness is specifically for your love.
As it turns out I'm a beggar for it
It becomes clear that I am desperate and willing to plead for your love.
I will exchange for it
I am willing to make exchanges or sacrifices to obtain your love.
All this time you were serious
Throughout this period, your intentions or feelings were sincere.
Now it's obvious
Now, the sincerity is evident or apparent.
It grows, black rose
Emotions intensify and evolve, likened to the growth of a black rose.
And it's falling from your hand
Your emotions, represented by the black rose, are slipping away from your grasp.
He says to me, "Loneliness is universal, so be happy when you cry"
A statement is made about the universality of loneliness, advising finding happiness in tears.
And yet I crave to be alone
Despite this advice, there is a personal desire for solitude.
Still I cant be sure
Uncertainty persists about whether the desire for loneliness is fulfilling.
At dusk
During the evening, a specific time, a certain action takes place.
I let the light out in exhales
I release light, symbolizing emotions, in breaths or sighs.
I let the camera fall to the floor
A camera falls to the ground, possibly indicating a loss or abandonment of capturing moments.
Mirror gawking, I'm staring at your face
Engaged in self-reflection, staring at your own reflection in a mirror.
The things that brought you hear
Reflecting on the factors or events that brought you to this point.
And I want you more
Despite everything, the desire for you intensifies.
