Heart – Mistral Wind Lyrics 1 year ago
This song embodies the fundamental nature of poetry. The aural and lyrical imagery strongly evokes a sailing-ship on the ocean, depicting the periods of calm and gale quite clearly and evoking the feelings of the crew. Naturally, the underlying message is powerfully sexual. Water itself is a sexual symbol, and the song courses through the entire encounter, from seeking a partner to "make my sails fill", to the dropping of one's barriers, "I have always held the wheel, but I let the wind steal my power", to completion. Consider the inversion "to the deepest mountains, too high and beautiful to see": if that does not describes the loss of one's sense of self in the throes of passion, what else could it mean?
