Lyrics
I feel my chin hit my chest
I experience a physical reaction, my chin dropping to my chest.
As I do my best to stay calm
Despite difficulties, I attempt to remain calm.
I feel my face start to ache
I sense pain in my face, possibly from stress or tension.
As I try to shake the alarm
Attempting to dispel the alarm or distress.
As I roll on my side
While lying on my side, I notice a smile on her face.
There's a smile on her face
The smile suggests a non-verbal communication that speaks volumes.
That says much more than words ever will
Her expression reveals more than words about her resilience.
About how she maintains all the spirit she's gained
She maintains the positive energy gained despite my mood.
When I'm grouch of the day
Refers to the times when I become irritable or grumpy.
When I've drifted away
When I emotionally distance myself.
And I'm moping around in a sulk
I'm sulking, and she has something to say about it.
She'll have something to say
She provides input or advice during my sulking moments.
And I usually obey
I usually follow her advice, and then negative feelings accumulate.
Then I get my resentments in bulk
Resentments build up as a consequence.
That's the price that you pay
Expresses the cost of being in a negative mood.
For being grouch of the day
Reiterates the consequences of being a grouch.
As my legs start to shake
Feeling a physical response, legs shaking.
The feeling is great and I'm gone
Experiencing a positive sensation, possibly euphoria.
I feel butterflies wing
Feeling excitement or nervousness, likened to butterflies.
As she starts to sling music on
She introduces music, influencing the atmosphere.
As she rolls on her back
She, too, experiences a positive reaction, rolling on her back.
With her smile full of charm
Her charming smile communicates more than words.
That says much more than words ever will
Similar to line 7, expressing the power of non-verbal communication.
About how the delight of her good time tonight
Her enjoyment contrasts with my perceived aging or decline.
Makes me look like I'm over the hill
Her joy makes me appear older or less vibrant.
Her beauty erodes
Her beauty diminishes the burdens and stress of my day.
The desperate loads
The stress and pressure that weigh heavily on me.
Of pressure that fills up my day
Her smile alleviates the stress that fills my day.
With one smile all the stress melts away
A single smile from her dispels all the stress.
