Bonnie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You saved me from stinging and being holed up
And braking in snow and killing more
And over spilling my runneth cup
You had light in your hands and your eyes closed
You had movement out of my sight
You wore no shoes and ate like a leopard
And if I had to live
This is what it should be
To have such a woman with me
When tidal wave hit and our house was in splinters
I thought you had took all you had to take
But you snuggled to me on the ground in the winter
And your breath smelled like honey in the frosty air wake
And if I had to live
This is what it should be
To have such a woman with me
The lyrics of Bonnie's song "Big Friday" is a tribute to a woman who has been there for the singer through thick and thin. The song is filled with metaphors that express how much the woman means to the singer. The first line of the song, "You saved me from melting, baby," expresses how the woman has saved him from falling apart, just like something that melts loses its form and shape. The singer goes on to say that the woman has saved him from stinging, being holed up, braking in snow, killing more, and over spilling his runneth cup. All these metaphors express how the woman has saved him from the harsh realities of life.
In the second verse, the singer talks about how the woman had light in her hands and closed eyes, movement out of his sight, wore no shoes and ate like a leopard, and slept with her legs apart every night. These lines are once again a tribute to the strength and independence of the woman. The third verse talks about how the woman was there for him even when a tidal wave hit and their house was in splinters. He thought she had taken all she had to take but still, she snuggled to him on the ground in the winter, and her breath smelled like honey in the frosty air wake. The song ends with the singer saying that this is how he would like to live, to have such a woman with him.
Overall, "Big Friday" is a beautiful and poetic tribute to a strong and independent woman who has been there for the singer through thick and thin. The metaphors that the singer uses to describe the woman are powerful and express how much she means to him.
Line by Line Meaning
You saved me from melting, baby
You rescued me from losing my cool or falling apart, my dear
You saved me from stinging and being holed up
You protected me from getting hurt or feeling trapped
And braking in snow and killing more
And preventing me from skidding and causing harm to myself or others in the snow
And over spilling my runneth cup
And stopping me from overflowing or losing control
You had light in your hands and your eyes closed
You seemed to possess a flame or a guiding source, holding it in your hand, yet shutting your eyes to distractions
You had movement out of my sight
You had the ability to move or work in ways that I couldn't see or comprehend
You wore no shoes and ate like a leopard
You went barefoot and consumed food much like a wild animal would
And slept with your legs apart every night
And slept in a position that was unreserved and open
And if I had to live
This is what it should be
To have such a woman with me
And if I had to endure this life, I would want it to be with someone like you, a woman who has saved and protected me, possessed a light and hidden movements, slept unguarded and weathered the storm with me
When tidal wave hit and our house was in splinters
When a massive force had hit us and destroyed our home
I thought you had took all you had to take
I believed you had endured all you could bear
But you snuggled to me on the ground in the winter
But you huddled close to me in the winter elements
And your breath smelled like honey in the frosty air wake
And your breath had a sweet smell like honey in the chilly, winter breeze
