Cover art for syrup and honey lyrics by Duffy

This is pretty straight forward, basically, her significant other is spending too much time trying to pursue a decent living and he has no time for her. This makes her sad because she could care less about the money he makes and just wants him to give her the time of day because his love and attention is more important to her than the money he makes ever will.
