I don't know if someone has already said this, but from reading the first page, I find that I thought some little things meant completely different things from what people have said. Yes, I think it's about dreaming up the man with all the perfect characteristics, and thinking that meeting him and being with him will make her a better person. "You sit there in your heartache Waiting on some beautiful boy To save you from your old ways You play forgiveness Watch it now- here he comes He doesn't look a thing like Jesus But he talks like a gentlemen Like you imagined when you were young When you were young" And she's looking for atonement, which is why she idolizes this "perfect" man who will make her a better person. That's why I think he says "he doesn't look a thing like Jesus"--because he's supposed to be so holy and forgiving, but he does act the way she idolized when she was little. Not that it would matter if he looked like Jesus... |
