Eddie Fisher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The quick toboggan, when you reach the heights
I miss the kisses, and I miss the bites
I wish I were in love again
The broken dates, the endless waits
The lovely loving, and the hateful hates
The conversation, with the flying plates
No more pain, no more strain
Now I'm sane, but I would rather be punched, drunk
The pulled out fur, of cat and cur
The fine mismating, of a him and her
I've learned my lesson, but I wish I were
In love again
The furtive sigh, the blackened eye
The words: "I love you, 'til the day I day"
The self deception, that believes the lie
I wish I were in love again
When love congeals, it soon reveals
The faint aroma, of performing seals
The double-crossing, of a pair of heals
I wish I were in love again
No, no more care, no, no despair
Now I'm all there (now), but I'd rather be punch-drunk
Believe me sir, I much prefer
The classic battle, of a him and her
I don't like quiet, and I wish I were
In love again, in love again, in love again
The song "I Wish I Were In Love Again" by Eddie Fisher expressed the multifarious experiences of love. The song depicts a person reminiscing about the times when they were in love, regardless of the pain and struggle that accompanies it. The lyrics convey that despite the difficulties of love, it is still preferable to being alone. The singer reflects on the sleepless nights, daily fights, broken dates, endless waits, furtive sighs, and blackened eyes that come with love, yet still wishes to be in love once again.
The singer also refers to the "pulled out fur" of cat and cur, signifying the conflict between couples through the departure of loved ones. In addition, the fine mismating of a "him and her" emphasizes the theme of compatibility in love. The song also mentions the vulnerability associated with love as people often deceive themselves into believing lies.

F is for Family has to be the most real animated show I've ever seen. It just always finds a way to hook me and wait for another season by capturing true moments in life that many shows don't.

At least you finally found it in your heart to own up to everything and make things right with your family even if it was just for a short talk. Now, we have to look for someone else who can sell ice to Eskimos.
And to Frank, "attaboy".
Now it's time to wait for another season. It'll be worth it.
