Deeper
Ezio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And takes a small sip from her cup
She flashes with her blue eyes
Over at the counter
Where the spanish boys are talking loud
And hiking up their trousers proud
She feels herself expiring
Like the ticket on her windscreen
While Janni sits there all alone
All alone with his Walkman on
And he taps the rhythm gently
With his fingers on the table
And he's trying not to sing along
Sing along to his favourite song
He doesn't want to be play like that
He just wants to make her eyes see
That he can make her body tremble
He's sure she'd make his fingers tingle
Every time they touched her skin
He just wants to be with her
He just wants to lay down next to her
He just wants to go deeper
Deeper than any boy has been
Then she pads her lips with a serviette
Christ knows why they're never wet
And anyway he knows
She'd be back again tomorrow
And there's one thing wrong with the afternoon
It always comes around too soon
He sees her slip her magazine away
Walk over to the door
But he knows how to keep his cool
And he knows how to make it
He can stop himself from falling
But he has had to learn to fake it
Anyway, she's made today
A better day than yesterday
At least he feels alive today
And he could do the same for her
If he could make her eyes see
That he can make her body tremble
He's sure she'd make his fingers tingle
Every time they touched her skin
He just wants to be with her
He just wants to lay down next to her
He just wants to go deeper
Deeper than any boy has been
He knows how to keep his cool
And he knows how to make it
He can stop himself from falling
But he has had to learn to fake it
Anyway, she's made today
A better day than yesterday
At least he feels alive
And he could do the same for her
If he could make her eyes see
that he can make her body tremble
He's sure she'd make his fingers tingle
Every time they touched her skin
And he just wants to be with her
He just wants to lay down next to her
He just wants to go deeper
Deeper than any boy has been
Than any boy has been, than any boy has been
Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper
The song Deeper by Ezio is a poignant reflection on unrequited love. The song lyrically explores two characters, Lisa and Janni, who sit in the same cafe every day, both lost in their own worlds. Lisa is a beautiful woman who catches the eye of Janni, a young man who is infatuated with her. He watches her every move, hoping she will notice him, and imagines what it would be like to be with her. Lisa is oblivious to Janni's adoration, and she goes about her routine, picking up her coffee, reading magazines and putting on lipstick. Janni, on the other hand, is lost in his music, imagining how he could make Lisa feel and what it would be like to touch her skin. The lyrics suggest that Janni wants to go deeper with Lisa than any boy has been before, implying that he wants to establish an intimate connection with her that is beyond physical.
However, the song also recognizes that Janni knows he cannot have Lisa. He understands the boundaries between them and has learned to fake his emotions to avoid disappointment. The song ends on a melancholic tone, with Janni sadly acknowledging that at least he feels alive today, and he could do the same for Lisa if given the chance.
Overall, the song is a bittersweet reflection on romance and the longing for someone out of reach. It highlights the pain of unrequited love and the complexities of human relationships.
Line by Line Meaning
Lisa picks her coffee up
Lisa takes her coffee and begins her day
And takes a small sip from her cup
Lisa sips her coffee, enjoying a brief moment of pleasure
She flashes with her blue eyes
Lisa glances intently with her striking blue eyes
Over at the counter
Lisa looks towards the counter with interest
Where the spanish boys are talking loud
There are Spanish boys conversing loudly at the counter, catching Lisa's attention
And hiking up their trousers proud
The boys show their machismo by hiking up their pants
She feels herself expiring
Lisa feels her youth and vitality slipping away
Like the ticket on her windscreen
Just as a ticket will expire and be removed, Lisa also feels her expiration is inevitable
While Janni sits there all alone
Janni is sitting alone, apart from the crowd
All alone with his Walkman on
Janni is engrossed in his music, isolated from the surrounding environment
And he taps the rhythm gently
Janni quietly taps the rhythm on the table
With his fingers on the table
Janni's fingers keep the rhythm on the surface of the table
And he's trying not to sing along
Janni enjoys the music but doesn't want to sing along
Sing along to his favourite song
Janni is listening to his favorite song on his Walkman
He doesn't want to be play like that
Janni doesn't want to be like the Spanish boys, flaunting and loud
He just wants to make her eyes see
Janni wants Lisa to see him
That he can make her body tremble
Janni wants to make Lisa feel passion
He's sure she'd make his fingers tingle

Then she pads her lips with a serviette
Lisa wipes her lips with a napkin
Christ knows why they're never wet
The napkins are always dry for some reason
And anyway he knows
Despite everything, Janni knows the truth
She'd be back again tomorrow
Lisa will be back again tomorrow
And there's one thing wrong with the afternoon
Janni finds fault with the timing of the day
It always comes around too soon
The day goes by too quickly for Janni's liking
He sees her slip her magazine away
Janni notices Lisa putting away her magazine
Walk over to the door
Lisa walks towards the door
But he knows how to keep his cool
Janni knows how to stay calm and collected
And he knows how to make it
Janni knows how to succeed
He can stop himself from falling
Janni can keep himself from losing control
But he has had to learn to fake it
Janni has had to learn how to pretend
Anyway, she's made today
Regardless, Lisa has made Janni's day
A better day than yesterday
Today, Janni feels better than he did yesterday
At least he feels alive today
Janni feels alive today
And he could do the same for her
Janni could make Lisa feel alive
Than any boy has been, than any boy has been
Janni wants to take Lisa deeper than anyone before
Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper
Janni wants to go deeper with Lisa
