Teardrop
Josť GonzŠlez Lyrics

The lyrics of Josť GonzŠlez's song Teardrop are open to interpretation, as they describe experiences that can be quite personal to the listener. On the surface, the song is about the emotions that come with love and confessing one's feelings, but the poetry of the lyrics adds a layer of depth and complexity.

The song starts with the statement that "love is a verb" and a "doing word," which means that love is not just a feeling, but something that has to be actively pursued and maintained. The next line, "feathers on my breath," suggests a lightness and buoyancy that comes from being in love. This is further emphasized by the phrase "gentle impulsion," which implies a gentle force that is guiding the singer.

The next verse describes the night as being full of matter, and that black flowers are blossoming. This is a reference to the darkness and uncertainty that comes with confessing one's feelings. The line "water is my eye, most faithful mirror" suggests that the singer sees their emotions reflected back at them when they look within, but also that water can be a symbol of change and renewal.

The final lines of the song, "teardrop on the fire, feathers on my breath," suggest that the act of confession is at once both painful and liberating. Finally, the last line "you're stumbling into all" could either be interpreted as the singer affirming their love, or a warning to the listener to be careful when they open their heart.
