Astriù
Oscar and the Wolf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You are brightly shining
Turn around, you′ll see me
And it's me behind you
Where there′s room for them now
On everything you turn around, love
On everything you turn around, love
For every time I try, you won't be nervous
On everything you change around me
On everything you changed inside her
Well it's me behind you
Cover up your body
For every time you clinch my heart
In Oscar and the Wolf's song "Astriù," the lyrics convey a sense of longing and desire. The song opens with the singer being in a garden, where someone they care about is shining brightly. The line "Turn around, you'll see me" suggests that the singer is yearning to be noticed and acknowledged by this person. There is a constant presence behind the person that they cannot see but is always there.
The lyrics also suggest a level of insecurity and vulnerability. The singer mentions that there is room for "them" now, insinuating that this person has moved on or found others to replace the singer. However, the singer still holds strong feelings for this person, as seen in the repeated line "On everything you turn around, love." It signifies that no matter where this person goes or who they are with, the singer's love and thoughts always revolve around them.
The chorus of the song further emphasizes the singer's struggle. They mention that every time they try, this person won't be nervous or affected by their efforts. The singer feels like everything they do or change around this person goes unnoticed, including the changes they try to make within themselves to win this person's heart. It demonstrates a deep longing to be appreciated and loved by someone who appears to be indifferent to their efforts.
Overall, "Astriù" explores themes of unrequited love, longing, and the inner conflicts one faces when trying to win the affection of someone who seems out of reach.
