Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
The Police [nitrofiles.blogspot.com] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her I just lose my nerve
As I've done from the start
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Do I have to tell the story
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up getting wet.
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
I resolved to call her up a thousand times a day.
And ask her if she'll marry me in some old fashioned way.
But my silent fears have gripped me long before I reach the phone
Long before my time has tripped me must I always be alone
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
Every little thing, every little thing, every little thing, every little thing
Every little, every little, ever little, every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
Beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo
Beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
She do is
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Hey oh yo oh
Beo
Ah
Thousand rainy days since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella, but it's always me that ends getting wet
The lyrics of The Police’s “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic” revolve around the singer’s feelings for a woman he is in love with. He has tried to tell her about his love for her before but finds himself unable to do so every time he comes close to her. However, he is still enamored by her, and everything she does has a magical effect on him. The singer muses about all the rainy days he has spent with the woman he loves and how he has always ended up getting soaked despite the big enough umbrella they shared. The lyrics also talk about the man's silent fears of never being able to confess his love and ask for her hand in marriage.
The song is a classic example of the new wave genre, popular in the late ‘70s and ‘80s, with a catchy chorus and easy-to-remember lyrics that made it a massive hit in 1981. However, the lyrics of the song delve deeper, showing a vulnerable and anxious side of the singer, who at times wonders if he'll ever be able to express his love. Overall, the song is a beautiful ode to the intense feelings of love and the anxiety and nervousness that come with it.
Line by Line Meaning
Though I've tried before to tell her
Despite previous attempts to express my feelings to her
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Describing the love I feel for her
Every time that I come near her I just lose my nerve
Feeling nervous and anxious when in her presence
As I've done from the start
Feeling this way since the beginning of knowing her
Every little thing she does is magic
Each action she takes has a special and enchanting effect on me
Everything she do just turns me on
Everything she does has a powerful attraction on me
Even though my life before was tragic
Despite the sorrowful situations from my past
Now I know my love for her goes on
Realizing that my love for her is enduring and will continue
Do I have to tell the story
Is it necessary to recite the events leading up to now
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
Detailing how long it's been since our initial encounter accompanied by frequent dismal weather
It's a big enough umbrella
The umbrella is large enough to accommodate two people
But it's always me that ends up getting wet.
Nevertheless, I always end up getting rained on
I resolved to call her up a thousand times a day.
Deciding to call her numerous times daily
And ask her if she'll marry me in some old fashioned way.
Requesting that she, in a traditional manner, agrees to wed me
But my silent fears have gripped me long before I reach the phone
My unspoken worries restrain me long before I get to phone her
Long before my time has tripped me must I always be alone
Duration preceding when she will become involved with me seems insurmountable and suggests a life of solitary confinement
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
Singing a vocal interlude expressing confidence, excitement, and joy
Every little thing, every little thing, every little thing, every little thing
Emphasizing each small action and conveying its significance
Every little, every little, ever little, every little thing she does
Repeating the idea that every small behavior she presents is essential
Every little thing she does
Establishing the theme is what she does, even the slightest things she executes
Beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo, beo
Murmuring and humming the melody
Magic, magic, magic
Stressing again how magical and enchanting she and her actions are
Hey oh yo oh
Adding a wordless chant to the verse
Beo
Echoing the opening melody
Ah
Quiet exclamation
