In all- this song is teaching the lesson of-"Either your a lesson or a blessing" and maybe she was both. Oh eyes like wildflowers, oh with your demons of changeĪnd lastly here: he is saying no matter what happen, how much pain he is in- or that she is in, he will have a memory of her that will never be tainted- the good memories, but will know that there was always "demons" of change that made the relationship unsuccessful. 'Cause I'll always remember you the same. Have friends that can look in your eyes and know what your going trough, and be able to lift you up ( feel the warmth of his smile-and all the comfort invested in his soul) Here- he's just saying:no matter the pain and trials your going through in your life keep your head up and keep moving forward with your mind set on the "prize"because it will get better. When he said, 'I'm happy to have you home.' Now I saw a friend of mine, the other day,Īnd he told me that my eyes were gleamin'. And how there may be obstacles(wind, heat) but there will be happiness again because he realizes as hes making his way down/making changes in his life that all along he wasn't searching for someone to complete him, but rather he was searching for who he really was. Here hes talking about the next chapter in his life(walking down the mountain/turning tides)-change. Oh oh-oh, all I was searchin' for was me." And after all of this stress and after all the heart break is gone, he can finally let his scars heal(greenness)- and let himself be bored(lonely) and try to embrace the darkness( the emptiness of not having her anymore). Here he is speaking about how he has watched them grow apart(spaces) and he has stressed about how he feels second best in her life. Oh the scars that come with the greenness. Though the song has a happy beat, its quite sad(well maybe not sad) but defintley emotional in terms of a couple that no longer is together. With "Keep Your Head Up" you feel the optimistic misery in it. With "Only Love", the simplicity of that song is easy to recognize it is all about the pure love that one possess in a relationship with another.simple and free-ONLY LOVE no bullshit. My InterpretationFor me this song is powerful in getting over the lose of a relationship Its amazing what Ben Howard's voice can do when he sings. (No, no, no, no, keep your mindset in your ways) (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong) Oh my, my darlin' (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong) no, no, no, no (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong) may you find happiness here (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong) Oh, eyes like wildflowers, oh with your demons of change No, no, no, no, keep your mind set in your ways No, no, no, no, keep your mindset, keep your hair long (keep your head up, keep your heart strong) Keep your head up, keep your heart strong (keep your head up, keep your heart strong) When he said, "I'm happy to have you home" Na, oh, no, no, keep your mind set in your waysĪnd he told me that my eyes were gleamin' Oh my, my darlin', keep your head up, keep your heart strong No, no, no, no, keep your mindset, keep your hair long Keep your head up, keep your heart strong Oh, the scars that come with the greennessĪnd I try my best to embrace the darkness
