Leipzig
Penelope Isles Lyrics

The lyrics of Penelope Isles's song "Leipzig" seem to be about a romantic relationship between two people who have a very strong connection with each other. The first verse begins by stating that the person singing believes that their partner loves them more than anything else in the world, even more than noises since Christmas time. However, they also express a sense of disbelief, as this seems "too good to be true." The next line, "Can I have another line," could be interpreted in a few different ways. Perhaps it refers to drug use, or maybe it's a metaphorical request for another expression of love. The line "When you cut the sleeves off your jumper I knew we'd be fine" suggests that the couple are unconventional and that their love would be strong enough to overcome any societal norms. Finally, the phrase "Something on your face, I will get it every time" sounds romantic, suggesting that the singer is attentive to their partner's needs.

The chorus seems to be an existential reflection on life before the current relationship. The line "What was it even like before" could be the singer wondering how they ever lived without this person in their life. The next verse begins with the invitation to "Come on in and dream with me," which could be a playful invitation for their partner to join them in their daydreams. The "au revoir jolie bateau" line, which translates to "goodbye beautiful boat," could be a nod to the fact that this relationship has changed their lives significantly, taking them to new places and experiences together. The last phrase "Not too far away, We will visit you sometime," suggests the importance of maintaining connections with friends and family even as the relationship deepens. Overall, the song seems to celebrate the joy and excitement of being in love with someone who truly understands and supports you.
