One Time
Love's Deceptive Dance: Steep Hill's Tale of Seduction and Betrayal
Lyrics
She's a cold woman with her heart on her sleeve
Describing a woman who appears distant or aloof but shows her emotions openly.
If you stray to close she'll put you right down on your knee's
Warning that if someone gets too close to her, she'll assert dominance or control.
She's got a fur jacket and spring in her step
She has a lively and energetic demeanor, symbolized by a fur jacket and a spring in her step.
Snakeskin boots the kind that's hard to get
Describing her fashionable and elusive nature, indicating she has elusive or desirable qualities.
And then one time when she came to close
Referencing a past occasion when she got physically close or intimate.
She took all of my money and she stole all of my clothes
She took advantage of the speaker, stealing their money and clothes during their intimate encounter.
Well I was cold and dirty, hard, wet and mean
Describing the speaker's state after the woman took advantage, feeling vulnerable and mistreated.
If she stuck around much longer we'd make
Implying a potential strong connection if she stayed longer.
Hell of a team
Reiterating the potential for a strong partnership or bond.
Hell of a team
Reinforcing the idea of a potential strong partnership or bond.
We'd make hell of a team now
Emphasizing the idea of a strong partnership once again.
Well the three words that can help me describe
Transitioning to describe the feelings inside the speaker.
All of the feelings I was feeling inside well they
These feelings rushed to the speaker's mind and represented their emotions.
Came to my head as soon as I woke
These feelings occurred immediately upon waking up.
And appeared upon my lips the first time that I spoke
These feelings emerged when the speaker first spoke after waking up.
That time when I saw you walking home
Referencing a specific moment when the speaker observed the woman returning home.
Wearing nothing but a smile and a cheap overcoat
Describing the woman's minimal attire, indicating vulnerability or exposure.
Well you wear cold and dirty
Describing the speaker's state after observing the woman, feeling vulnerable and unkempt.
With mud on your knees
Describing the woman's appearance, mirroring the speaker's state previously mentioned.
If you stuck around much longer we'd make
Implies a potential strong connection if the woman stayed longer.
Hell of a team
Reiterating the potential for a strong partnership or bond.
Hell of a team
Emphasizing the idea of a strong partnership once again.
We'd make hell of a team now
Stressing the idea of a strong partnership once more.
She's a cold woman with her heart on her sleeve
Repetition of the initial description of the woman's demeanor.
If you stray to close she'll put you right down on your knee's
Repetition of the warning about getting too close to the woman.
She's got a fur jacket and spring in her step
Reiteration of the woman's lively and energetic nature.
Snakeskin boots the kind that's hard to get
Reiteration of her fashionable and elusive qualities.
And then one time when she came to close
Reference to a repeated incident of getting physically close or intimate.
She took all of my money and she stole all of my clothes
Repetition of the woman taking advantage and stealing from the speaker during intimacy.
Well I was cold and dirty, hard, wet and mean
Reiteration of the speaker's vulnerable and mistreated state.
If she stuck around much longer we'd make
Implies a potential strong connection if she stayed longer, echoing earlier lines.
Hell of a team
Reiterating the potential for a strong partnership or bond.
Hell of a team
Emphasizing the idea of a strong partnership once again.
We'd make hell of a team now
Stressing the potential of a strong partnership one last time.
