Joni
Anja Bigrell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You'll let your mind wander where you please
You'll let your mind wander where you please

Cut my tongue out if I ever say to you:
Stop bothering me, stop!
We'll learn how to handle space and time
We've already shared this body
Surely will try to give you all

You'll let your mind wander where you please
You'll let your mind wander where you please

And you'll love
You'll love
If you feel like it

Please bother me make a mess
And let us know you're here
I'll cut their tongues out if I ever hear them say
You don't belong here

You'll let your mind wander where you please
You'll let your mind wander where you please
You'll let your mind wander where you please

And you'll love
You'll love
You'll love
If you feel like it
If you feel like it

And you'll love
You'll love
And let your mind
And you'll love
You'll love
Like I'll try to
You'll love
And let your mind
You'll love
And let your mind wander
You'll love

You'll love
And let your mind
You'll love
And let your mind
You'll love
And let your mind




You'll love
And let your mind

Overall Meaning

The song "Joni" by Anja Bigrell is a beautiful and ethereal song that invites the listeners to let their minds wander wherever they please. The first verse of the song establishes this theme, with the line "You'll let your mind wander where you please" repeated twice. The second verse, however, takes a more assertive tone. The singer makes it clear that if anyone tries to stop them from letting their mind wander, they will cut their tongue out. The lyrics then go on to describe how the singer and their loved one will learn how to handle space and time, and how they have already shared this body.


The chorus consists of the phrases "And you'll love, you'll love, if you feel like it" repeated three times. This further emphasizes the idea of free will and self-determination, as the singer is encouraging their loved one to love if they want to, not because they feel they have to. The bridge of the song continues this theme, with the line "And let your mind wander" repeated several times. The final verses of the song express a desire for messiness and presence, with the singer encouraging their loved one to make a mess and let them know that they're there.


Overall, the song "Joni" can be interpreted as an invitation to live freely and authentically, and to let one's mind wander wherever it pleases. It also highlights the importance of self-determination and free will in both love and life.
