Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can see the stars come thru my room
While your loving attitude
Is like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of ev'ry kiss
Drift a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss you make my
Paradise complete
It's all like a dream to call you mine
My heart's lighter thing
Since you made me this night a thing divine
In A Sentimental Mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt
That you'd be loving sentimental me
In A Sentimental Mood
I can see the stars come thru my room
While your loving attitude
Is like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of ev'ry kiss
Drift a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss you make my
Paradise complete
Rose pearls seem to fall
It's all like a dream to call you mine
My heart's lighter thing
Since you made me this night a thing divine
In A Sentimental Mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt
That you'd be loving sentimental me
"In A Sentimental Mood" by Ed Cherry is a song that captures the essence of being in love in a deeply romantic and poetic manner. The lyrics paint the picture of a lover who is overwhelmed with emotion while being with their partner. The opening line "I can see the stars come thru my room" suggests that the lover is lost in thought while being alone in their room, dreaming of their partner. Then, the chorus begins with the line "While your loving attitude is like a flame that lights the gloom," implying that the partner's love is the light in the darkness of the lover's life. The lyric "On the wings of ev'ry kiss, drift a melody so strange and sweet," describes the musicality that seems to come from every kiss between the couple.
The phrase "In this sentimental bliss, you make my paradise complete" reinforces the idea that the lover feels complete only with their partner, and their love has brought paradise into their life. The use of the metaphor "Rose pearls seem to fall" emphasizes the romantic and dream-like state of the lover, also suggesting that everything around them is beautiful since they are with their partner. The last line, "For I never dreamt that you'd be loving sentimental me" reveals that the lover is surprised to have found such love and happiness with their partner and feels incredibly grateful for it.
