Cooling Lyrics

Lyric discussion by ahavalyssa 

Cover art for Cooling lyrics by Tori Amos

and i agree with the above comments about cooling being about a love that is losing passion...fire is dimming on the part of her beloved more quickly than her own...to save her heart, she's got to learn to let go... "but fire thought she'd really rather be water instead"-a rather energetic spirit has turned to the emotional side of herself--she's crying "so then love walked up to like said i know that you don't like me much let's go for a ride"-defines their relationship-she is more in love than her less-attached partner "and is your place in heaven worth giving up these kisses these, yes, these kisses"-she is contemplating the right choice

this song is ever so sad.
