I LOVE this song. It's very relatable and easily understood. I love the simplicity of it. The lyrics are timeless, because a person like this doesn't change who they are.
You're beautiful and that's for sure
You'll never ever fade
You're lovely, but it's not for sure
That I won't ever change
This is her way of building your confidence. Letting you know that it isn't about you. It's simply who she is. Your beauty won't fade, just because she can't relate. That being on an attachment level of romance. She can't promise you that she'll ever change her ways... free spirit.
And though my love is rare
And though my love is true
She knows how rare her love is. Also, how genuine her love is. She's not emotionally detached, because she doesn't have a soul/heart. It's actually the exact opposite.
I'm like a bird
I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
And baby, all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird
I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is (soul is)
She's like a bird, meaning that she isn't meant to love ONE soul. She knows her purpose. Her purpose is to love others and that love can't be trapped into a box. She loves love, and that is why relationships don't last. She's got too much love to give. There's too many people needing a shoulder to cry on to only give it to one person at a time. Jealousy is the norm, but it isn't her norm. As soon as someone tries to tame her love, that is when she will fly away. I don't know where my soul is, a metaphor for people who convince her that she's soulless, because she isn't a practical lover, one person at a time. She loves everyone and doesn't know how to love otherwise. She doesn't know where her home is, means that she doesn't have a stable home, because she has an adventurous soul. She's going to do what she wants to do, love whomever she wants to love, and live where she wants to live. That can be implied in every context, or just one. She might have a stable home, but an unstable heart. It isn't because she's emotionally unstable, or incapable of love. It is about her flexibility to roam spiritually, emotionally, or romantically. She is being honest with herself, and the listen-ears. It very unlikely has to do with being a hoe. Js. That is what those who're trapped inside of a box might assume, but it isn't so. She's simply letting the wind be her guide. If its meant for her, it will be. She'll flow through life, instead of letting other people tell her who she is. She's letting the person know that she can't promise to ever be tamed. It isn't her nature.
Your faith in me brings me to tears (ah)
Even after all these years, years
And it pains me so much to tell
That you don't know me that well
Someone who believed in her for years, it makes her sad that someone who is so attached to her, doesn't understand her. She wants them to comprehend that she will carry her wild spirit, whether or not, they can accept it or not.
It's not that I wanna say goodbye
It's just that every time you try
To tell me, me that you love me (oh, oh)
Each and every single day
I know I'm gonna have to eventually give you away, yeah
This is deep. She doesn't want to say goodbye, but if he doesn't love her for who she is, then it isn't ever going to work. She either needs a free spirit like her, or someone who doesn't try to change that about her. Free spirit and lack of loyalty are NOT the same thing. People have a tendency to confuse this.
