HomeThe Shy Girl's Breathing Room
"Sophia"

5 o' clock and a fire escape symphony,
Spilling out across the road and the square,
And the sky's the same as your own, do you think of me?
Do the parks, and trees, and the leaves, reach you, there?
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me, calling out,
Again and again.

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning.
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
I can't go without and one of of them is him.

And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my home town,
Learn the language, form the words when I speak,
But he changed me, I'm his ghost since he came around,
And now I count the hours and the days in the weeks.

Passion and silence,
Every word, every line, a measure,
It's the science of the soul,
And his books, they breathe a reason and now I want to know...

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning,
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
I can't go without and one of of them is him.

You, with your new born eyes,
Have you ever loved a man like I love him?
Do you hurt but still feel alive, like never before?
Oh, Sophia, Sophia.

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning,
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
I can't go without and one of of them is him.

This song is not at all about abuse or anything like that. You see, it's a song of love. Sophia is the character telling the story. She's longing for her love, asking whether the sky he sees is the same as her own, and whether he thinks of her. Then we hear things from his point of view; he cries her name twice, and then it's both of them crying out 'I'm burning' because of the consuming nature of their love. You see, he is away from her, but she longs so much for him that it's a pysical agony, and she's allowing it to consume her. She moves away later, desperate to be closer to him but is somehow farther, and in an attempt to explain her actions, she asks the listener whether she (the listener) has ever loved a man like Sophia loved him. And she wants the listener to confess similar feelings, to confess that he or she has also pined for someone who could no longer be with them. - source http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/280540

Lively colors, colors lively. me out of words.
