| Deep Blue Something – Breakfast At Tiffany's Lyrics | 16 years ago |

I think there is more to this song. It seems to me that "Breakfast at Tiffany's" means something special to the guy, maybe the day they saw the movie was one of their happiest days in his memory. So when she says she wants to break up, he says "what about Breakfast at Tiffany's?", meaning "remember how happy we were?". But her answer (I *think* I remember the film) makes it very clear that for her it did not feel special at all, in fact this probably makes clear that she never felt about him the way he felt about her at all, and now she's just making up lame excuses to leave him ("the world has come between us", indeed). So in the last line of the refrain I think he's just struggling to say something, anything (even if it doesn't make a lot of sense) just to hide how much it hurts him to just have discovered this fact. Of course, there are those who will say I am reading way too much into this... |

You missed a line: ... Did you ever have a lover Leave you for another ***To take your love and kisses for granted*** Never to discover ... |

| Small correction: It should be "I hurt inside-out" there towards the end. | |

I don't really get the part that goes Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety You could end up as the only one Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society At night a candle's brighter than the sun Is he telling us *NOT* to be modest and proper? Or is he telling us to "ignore people who think you're notorious because you're modest and proper, and it doesn't matter if you end up alone as a consequence"? As for the candle, is it useful only at night? What is the message in this statement? It almost sounds like it has the opposite spirit compared to the rest of the song, namely that you should only display your personality (candle) privately (at night). Am I totally getting this wrong? |
