Florence + the Machine – Hardest of Hearts Lyrics 14 years ago
I thought that this song was about one person in the relationship that was not as expressive as the other and it ended up hurting the other person. But then I was watching my favorite tv show and there was this scene where someone was going to tell someone else how they felt about them, but ended up not saying anything and they ended up with a broken heart instead of a nice, complete heart which is what they would have had if they had just told the other person, because the feelings were reciprocated. This situation also happened to the other person too and the results were the same. So I just thought of this song, and how maybe it is talking not of one person not telling the other how they felt in a relationship and it ended up hurting the other person, but how one person not telling the other how they felt when they WEREN'T in a relationship, and they ended up breaking their own heart.

This is how it all fits in.

There is love in your body but you can't hold it in
It pours from your eyes and spills from your skin

They can't hold in the love that they have for each other, they show it in they way they look at each other or in the way that they act towards one another.

Tenderest touch leaves the darkest of marks

When they brush hands, they think of it for a while, almost like it left a mark (metaphorically)

And the kindest of kisses break the hardest of hearts

They have kissed, but have brushed it off as nothing even though it is probably something they think the most of. The memory of it is slowly breaking their hearts.

The hardest of hearts
The hardest of hearts
The hardest of hearts

Both of the people dealing with this are strong, but they still can barely deal with the situation and their hearts are broken.

There is love in your body but you can't get it out
It gets stuck in your head, won't come out of your mouth

They can't verbally express their feelings for each other, they find it too hard, and are afraid it will risk what they already have. They are also afraid of being hurt, either by being rejected or by the relationship not working out.

Sticks to your tongue and shows on your face
That the sweetest of words have the bitterest taste

Simple, sweet, loving words like "I love you" are too difficult for either person to say.

Darling heart, I loved you from the start
But you'll never know what a fool I've been

They are apologizing to their own heart for putting it through all that pain.

Darling heart, I loved you from the start
But that's no excuse for the state I'm in

They still can't tell the other how they feel, even though their heart is broken.

There is love in our bodies and it holds us together

They don't want to be apart from each other because they love each other.

But pulls us apart when we're holding each other

When they get too close and too emotional, they pull back.

We all want something to hold in the night
We don't care if it hurts or we're holding too tight

At night when they are alone and in bed thinking, they want the other person to be by their side. They don't care about anything else, they just want the other person. But when they actually start to do something or when it is daytime, rationality kicks in and they stop themselves.

There is love in your body but you can't get it outMy heart swells like a water at work (?)

What is a water at work? Is that even the lyrics?

Can't stop myself before it's too late

They are about to do something that might change their relationship

Hold on to your heart

Have hope!

'Cause I'm coming to take it

Their about to say something....

Hold on to your heart

Keep hopin'!

'Cause I'm coming to break it

They don't! :'( *snap* "What was that?" "Oh. That was my heart breaking." (Srry, just had to put that in there. That was my inner actress and child, by the way.)

Hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on
Hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on

They tell themselves they can make it through the pain, they just have to hold on. The worst will be over soon.

The hardest of hearts (hold on, hold on)
The hardest of hearts (hold on, hold on)
The hardest of hearts (hold on)

They are both breaking their own hearts buy just not telling the other person how they feel. Yes, this is a specific situation I am talking about. If you want to see the relationship, watch Castle! *thinks- Man I am such a geek! I relate every stinking song to this tv show!* Shut up inner child!

so sorry, i made a couple of really bad mistakes. So here you go:

Your songs remind me of swimming,
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Drank further away from the shore,
And deeper into the drink

Sat on the bottom of the ocean,
A stern and stubborn rock
Cos your songs remind me of swimming,
But somehow I forgot

I was sinking, now I'm sunk
And I was drinking, now I'm drunk
Your songs remind me of swimming
But somehow I forgot

I tried to remember the chorus,
I can't remember the verse
Cos that song that sent me swimming,
Is now the life jacket that burst

Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor,
Sinking like a siren that can't swim no more
Your songs remind me of swimming,
But I can't swim any more

Pull me out the water, cold and blue,
I open my eyes and I see that it's you,
So I dive straight back in the ocean

Take a deep breath, tuck the water in my chest
Cross my fingers and hope for the best
Oh, take a deep breath, tuck the water in my chest,
Cross my fingers and hope for the best

Then all of a sudden, I heard a note,
It started in my chest and ended in my throat
And then I realised
Then I realised
Then I realised

I was swimming
Yes i was swimming
And now im swimming
Yes i am swimming

Your songs remind me of swimming
Which i forgot when i started to sink
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which i forgot when i started to sink
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which i forgot when i started
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which i forgot when i started to sink
