Spanic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I tried to make it sunday, but I got so damn depressed
That I set my sights on monday and I got myself undressed
I aint ready for the altar but I do agree theres times
When a woman sure can be a friend of mine

Well, I keep on thinkin bout you, sister golden hair surprise
And I just cant live without you; cant you see it in my eyes?
I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find
But it doesnt mean you aint been on my mind

Will you meet me in the middle, will you meet me in the air?
Will you love me just a little, just enough to show you care?
Well I tried to fake it, I dont mind sayin, I just cant make it

Well, I keep on thinkin bout you, sister golden hair surprise
And I just cant live without you; cant you see it in my eyes?
Now I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find
But it doesnt mean you aint been on my mind

Will you meet me in the middle, will you meet me in the air?




Will you love me just a little, just enough to show you care?
Well I tried to fake it, I dont mind sayin, I just cant make it

Overall Meaning

The song "Sister Golden Hair" by America's band Spanic, depicts a man who is struggling to maintain a relationship. He has missed a date with his lover, probably on a Sunday, and is depressed about it. He then tries to make up with her by meeting her the next day, however, he gets undressed before he's done anything since he's still not ready to commit himself fully to the relationship. He acknowledges that at times, he needs her, and he wants her to stand by him even when he's not ready to take the plunge. He wonders if he can find a middle ground where she can love him just enough to show that she cares but not so much that she's entirely committed.


The song speaks about a relationship that is already in progress, and the man's struggle to make it work. He recognizes the importance of the woman in his life and acknowledges that at times, he needs her around. He's not entirely ready to commit himself to her, hence the request that they meet halfway, where she can love him just enough to show that she cares. The lyrics evoke a feeling of mixed emotions, and the listener is left guessing about whether the relationship will work or not.
