the last line is the only one i can't quite parse. the rest of the song seems to be reminiscing and expressing regret for ending his relationship with someone in a way that was cruel. but when he says "real love had not quite yet found me", is he saying that he would have found love in that relationship had he not ended it? or that he would find love in someone else at a later point in his life, and he shouldn't be sad about losing this one person? or something else? i just can't quite put it together. anyone? |

this doesn't even have to do with the lyrics, but i am just smitten with the magical little bit of harmonizing they do between :57 and 1:15 or thereabouts. pure brilliance. |

Mooch has a very good point, but I believe couldBanyone has an excellent point too; that's the thing about good poetry: the layers. This song, as do many of Tweedy's other brilliant creations (try I Am Trying to Break Your Heart), is filled with myriad layers. The trick is finding the common thread that connects them.
CHECK OUT Nels Cline's solo on the live version of this song from Kicking Television. I think it is my favorite guitar solo of all time (I've listened to it about 8 times today). He takes Tweedy's lyrics and melts them into guitar notes. What a great addition to the band he is. I will miss Wilco's current lineup once it changes. |
