Sweet Affection
Love's Bittersweet Dance: Sweet Affection Unveiled
Lyrics
Apples love sunshine, cherries love dew
Apples thrive in sunshine, cherries flourish with dew
Angels in heaven know I love you
Expressing deep love, akin to angels in heaven
With sweet affection (sweet affection)
Emphasizing a tender and genuine affection
Sweet affection (sweet affection)
Reiterating the theme of sweet and sincere love
But don't expect me to hang my broken heart
Cautioning against expecting the narrator to display heartache openly
On a chestnut tree
Rejecting the idea of displaying pain on a chestnut tree
Once you loves me (sweet affection)
Recalling a past time when the other person loved with affection
With sweet affection (sweet affection)
Reaffirming the presence of sweet affection in the past
Once your thoughts (sweet affection)
Highlighting the previous dominance of the other person's thoughts
Were all of me! (sweet affection)
Stating that the other person was everything to the narrator at one point
But now you've gone (sweet affection)
Expressing the current absence of that sweet affection
And found another (sweet affection)
Acknowledging that the other person has moved on to someone else
And I'm just (sweet affection) a memory!
Describing the narrator as now being just a memory
Apples love sunshine, cherries love dew
Repeating the analogy of apples and cherries to convey love
Angels in heaven know I love you
Reiterating the profound love acknowledged by angels in heaven
With sweet affection (sweet affection)
Reaffirming the presence of sweet affection
Sweet affection (sweet affection)
Emphasizing the enduring nature of sweet affection
But don't expect me to hang my broken heart
Reiterating the narrator's unwillingness to openly display heartbreak
On a chestnut tree
Rejecting the idea of displaying pain on a chestnut tree, repeated from line 6
Gonna send back (sweet affection)
Deciding to return all the letters written with a fickle pen
All those letters (sweet affection)
Referring to the correspondence associated with sweet affection
That you wrote (sweet affection)
Highlighting the act of returning letters written by the other person
With a fickle pen! (sweet affection)
Describing the pen used for writing as unreliable or unfaithful
And from now on (sweet affection)
Declaring the intention to act like strangers from now on
We'll act like strangers (sweet affection)
Suggesting a detachment or estrangement between the narrator and the other person
Or at least (sweet affection)
Expressing a commitment to maintaining distance until a future meeting
Till we meet again!
Anticipating a possible reunion but maintaining a sense of separation for now
Apples love sunshine, cherries love dew
Repeating the analogy of apples and cherries to convey love
Angels in heaven know I love you
Reiterating the profound love acknowledged by angels in heaven
With sweet affection (sweet affection)
Reaffirming the presence of sweet affection
Sweet affection (sweet affection)
Emphasizing the enduring nature of sweet affection
But don't expect me to hang my broken heart
Reiterating the narrator's unwillingness to openly display heartbreak
On a chestnut tree
Rejecting the idea of displaying pain on a chestnut tree, repeated from line 6 and line 21
(sweet affection, sweet affection)
Concluding with a repetition of the theme of sweet affection
