Sweet Tangerine Lyrics
Rain falls, quickly wetting my hair and clothes
My cries fall upon her deaf ears
More tears
Let me in, please, it's cold
I'm freezing out here
I miss you, my dear
You're all his and I'm all yours
Like it or not, I'm all you've got
Everyone will make mistakes
Without the sour, the sweet wouldn't taste as...
Sweet tangerine
Will you please come back to me?
Cause I don't think that these feelings are gonna leave
Light cuts through the clouds
And haunts me like bad dreams
Outside, looking in
I'm feeling lost and cold as a sin
A shred of a hope, a little bit of sweetness
Anything please, except for defeat
If I could, I'd lock you up and toss out the key
It's just you and me
Everyone will make mistakes
And I know I have
Without the sour, the sweet wouldn't taste as...
Sweet tangerine
Will you please come back to me?
Cause I don't think these feelings are gonna to leave
Sweet melody
You'll be singing in your sleep
But this time you're not listening to a word I say
Crept through the curtains as quick as the cold winds
Slowly exploring the room where you sleep
The stare of your portrait
The passing of your scent
Left me no choice but to stay
I will dissolve into the dark beneath your bed
My hands will wait for a taste of your skin
Sweet tangerine
Will you please come back to me?
Cause I don't think these feelings are gonna to leave
Sweet melody
You'll be singing in your sleep
But this time you're not listening to a word I say
A word I say
My cries fall upon her deaf ears
More tears
Let me in, please, it's cold
I'm freezing out here
I miss you, my dear
You're all his and I'm all yours
Like it or not, I'm all you've got
Without the sour, the sweet wouldn't taste as...
Will you please come back to me?
Cause I don't think that these feelings are gonna leave
And haunts me like bad dreams
Outside, looking in
I'm feeling lost and cold as a sin
A shred of a hope, a little bit of sweetness
Anything please, except for defeat
If I could, I'd lock you up and toss out the key
It's just you and me
And I know I have
Without the sour, the sweet wouldn't taste as...
Will you please come back to me?
Cause I don't think these feelings are gonna to leave
You'll be singing in your sleep
But this time you're not listening to a word I say
Slowly exploring the room where you sleep
The stare of your portrait
The passing of your scent
Left me no choice but to stay
My hands will wait for a taste of your skin
Will you please come back to me?
Cause I don't think these feelings are gonna to leave
You'll be singing in your sleep
But this time you're not listening to a word I say
A word I say

This reminds me of my old boyfriend. ... :-|
it makes stalking seem okay, doesn't it? it's a good song.
This song reminds me of this guy I know, who screws up all of his relationships. He really cares about this one girl, but he messed up OVER and OVER and he's constantly wanting her back. Everytime he admits to his mistakes and says he will change, but he doesn't. And now the girl is fed up with him and won't listen to him anymore. And could the stalking part just be a metaphor? Like to show how desperate this guy has become for this particular girl. Not that he actually did those things.
This is a song about a pet cat who's owner has a new boyfriend and is spending lots of time away from home, or when she is home, she doesn't give the kitty the attention he wants. Think about it.
I am in love with this song!! Canlt wait for the record to come out!!
Anyway, the meanings pretty obvious. Narrator is a stalker who is head over heels for someone, and watches them, always desperatly wanting them, but always unsure if he/she should make a move, becasue the last time he/she did, he/she didn't get the reaction he/she wanted.
This song is about losing a girl and wanting her back. They are talking about how lonely and cold he is without his girl. All he seems to want to do is watch her as she sleeps
It is you're all his and I'm all yours, not you're all ears and i'm all yours :)
Also, it's a shred of hope and I will dissolve
:)
(via lyrics booklet)
Definitely about a stalker.
