Lyrics meaning

The speaker presents music as an honest expression of feeling, especially love. He says his words are sincere, not just a performance, and wishes for a relationship where both people can give and receive love peacefully. The repeated idea of living the love he sings about suggests he wants his real life to match his hopeful songs.

Several images connect music with relationships. โ€œMusic is loveโ€ and โ€œperfect harmonyโ€ compare the sound of music to two people fitting well together. The guitar that gives him the sound he wants becomes a gentle comparison for a partner: he feels that the two of them can work well together, too. The wish to solve problems rather than hide them suggests that lasting closeness depends on honesty, not on pretending everything is fine.

The lyrics are warm and confident, but they do not claim that love is always easy. The speakerโ€™s wish for a life โ€œwithout any complicationsโ€ sits alongside his recognition that problems must be faced. โ€œOutside answers should always be forbiddenโ€ is less clear: it may mean that the couple should find solutions between themselves, rather than looking elsewhere. Overall, the song celebrates sincere love while hinting that living up to an ideal requires openness.
