Cover art for Cut Straight To The Heart lyrics by Sophie Ellis-Bextor

I never saw this coming Since the beginning you were in control: Sophie never thought her lover would be this different. The second line might be the opposite meaning that she was in control but now her lover is in control. And now my heart is drumming Believe this love could maybe save my soul She is scared and anxious. Maybe Sophie could help the situation. I hear a voice out of the silence That can always bring me home Someone she has lost is telling her what to do to stop the fight. Don't let me go Now I'm right where I want to be Don't let me go You cut straight to the heart of me She doesn’t want her partner to abandon her and Sophie wants it to be as it used to be. Cut to the heart means making someone so distressed that it actually damages their emotional health and recovering for a long time. Forever want for nothing Caught in a place where I'm released from fear So in my dreams I'm running Towards the light that came and brought us here She’s having a dream where Fear is banished from sight. To leave the dream, she heads to the light that began the dream.

So a song about a break up where Sophie tries to prevent it by talking to her deceased relative. She dreams that they are still together even though they are probably not.
