Black Heart
Carly Rae Jepsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I care more about your bad dreams
I want a love on a new dimension
You know I'm gonna be
Under the blossom tree
Come a little closer, won't you come a little closer to me
You're my miracle
Under the blossom tree
Come a little closer, won't you come a little closer to me
'Cause you're my miracle
In your black heart, is where you'll find me
Cutting through the cracks of the concrete
In your black heart, is where you'll find me
Waiting, oh
You think love is a destination
Like a show on your TV
You're a cry to your generation
But don't you cry to me
Under the blossom tree
Come a little closer, won't you come a little closer to me
You're my miracle
Under the blossom tree
Come a little closer, won't you come a little closer to me
'Cause you're my miracle
In your black heart, is where you'll find me
Cutting through the cracks of the concrete
In your black heart, is where you'll find me
Waiting, oh
In your black heart, is where you'll find me
Cutting through the cracks of the concrete
In your black heart, is where you'll find me
Waiting
Everything you ever wanted
Now it's happening, now it's happening (black heart)
Everything you ever wanted
Now it's happening, under the blossom tree (black heart)
Everything you ever wanted
Now it's happening, now it's happening (black heart)
Everything you ever wanted
Now it's happening, under the blossom tree (black heart)
Black heart
Carly Rae Jepsen's "Black Heart" is a song about a relationship that is full of conflicts and misunderstandings. The lyrics suggest that the singer is not interested in the good intentions of her partner but instead is more concerned about their true feelings, as revealed in their bad dreams. The singer yearns for a love that transcends the current dimension of their relationship and seeks emotional intimacy with her partner, who she believes to be her miracle. The blossom tree is a symbol of hope and renewal, urging her partner to come closer to her and connect with her at a deeper level.
The song's chorus repeats the phrase "In your black heart is where you'll find me," which implies that the singer is willing to go to great depths to find the hidden truth about their relationship. The concrete imagery suggests that their love is not just an abstract concept but has actual consequences and impact on their lives. The singer seems to be waiting for her partner to open up and reveal their true selves, even if it means facing their darkest fears and insecurities. The song ends on an optimistic note, suggesting that everything the singer ever wanted is now happening under the blossom tree, despite the challenges they face.
Line by Line Meaning
I don't care about your good intentions
I am not concerned with your positive desires
I care more about your bad dreams
I am interested in the negative aspects of your subconscious
I want a love on a new dimension
I desire a novel, unique form of love
You know I'm gonna be
You are aware that I will exist
Under the blossom tree
Beneath the flowering plant
Come a little closer, won't you come a little closer to me
Approach me to a slightly nearer distance
You're my miracle
You are my extraordinary occurrence
In your black heart, is where you'll find me
I exist within your heart of darkness
Cutting through the cracks of the concrete
Slicing through the crevices of solid pavement
Waiting, oh
Enduring time while anticipating
You think love is a destination
You believe that love is an end goal
Like a show on your TV
Similar to a program broadcasted on your television
You're a cry to your generation
You are a representation of the voice of your era
But don't you cry to me
However, do not express such sentiments towards me
Everything you ever wanted
All you've ever desired
Now it's happening, now it's happening (black heart)
It is presently occurring (in your black heart)
Under the blossom tree (black heart)
Beneath the flowering plant (in your heart of darkness)
Black heart
The intrinsic, negative aspect of your being
