The song "Isabel" by Callalily is about the struggles of a couple who are in love but are faced with opposition from others who do not approve of their relationship. The singer in the song expresses his frustration about not being able to hold his partner's hand and not being able to see her, all because of the disapproval of others. Despite the challenges, the singer reassures his partner that she is his happiness and he will always be there for her.
The lyrics evoke feelings of sadness and pain caused by the external pressures that are placed on the relationship. The couple's love for each other is undeniable, however, societal norms and expectations prevent them from being together. The repetition of the line "I love you and you love me too, but why can't they understand" emphasizes the unfairness of the situation and the frustration that comes with it.
Overall, the song Isabel by Callalily portrays the universal theme of love versus societal expectations, and how two people in love can face challenges and obstacles from the world around them.
