Hell on the heart-- Eric Church

No if, and's, but's or maybe's
So you wanna be her baby
I can read your face like a book
Yeah it looks easy to love her but believe me brother
It's harder than it looks

She's as pretty as a picture
Every bit as funny as she is smart
Got a smile that'll hold you together
And a touch that'll tear you apart
When she's yours she brings the sunshine
When she's gone the world goes dark
Yeah she's heaven on the eyes
But boy she's hell on the heart

Yeah she's good when she's bad
She's cute when she's mad
And she does all the wrong things right
Yeah boy it's a fact when they're made like that
You ain't ever gonna sleep at night

She's as pretty as a picture
Every bit as funny as she is smart
Got a smile that'll hold you together
And a touch that'll tear you apart
When she's yours she brings the sunshine
When she's gone the world goes dark
Yeah she's heaven on the eyes
But boy she's hell on the heart

Once you feel her touch and you've felt that rush
It's gonna mess up your head
But here's the kicker son
Your old ticker's gonna beat you half to death

She's as pretty as a picture
Every bit as funny as she is smart
Got a smile that'll hold you together
And a touch that'll tear you apart
When she's yours she brings the sunshine
When she's gone the world goes dark
Yeah she's heaven on the eyes
But boy she's hell on the heart
Yeah she's hell on the heart


Analysis:

     This song is one of those songs that shows how valuable her love is to him. He loves her for more than just her looks and the way she can reel him in. She's loved for her intelligence, wit, humor, and other things. Especially how her smile can build you up and a single loving touch can make you fall apart and weak at the knees. Every woman can do that to that one guy that has fallen for that one girl.

No if, and's, but's or maybe's
So you wanna be her baby
I can read your face like a book
Yeah it looks easy to love her but believe me brother
It's harder than it looks

      This is the first verse of the song of course by the looks of the song outline but it's also the intro to the true messages of the song. "Yeah it looks easy to love her but believe me brother, It's harder than it looks", those lines are like: "So, you think you can love her, I want to see if you can see past her faults and love her for who she truly is and nothing more, nothing less." That means: "Love her through her faults and tribulations. She might be one of those girls that had a very bad childhood. Just hear her out. You might be surprised on how much you two actually attract. She appears strong, but she's breaking every moment on the inside and you don't know it yet" So, just dig deeper to know her more. It'll be worth it.

She's as pretty as a picture
Every bit as funny as she is smart
Got a smile that'll hold you together
And a touch that'll tear you apart
When she's yours she brings the sunshine
When she's gone the world goes dark
Yeah she's heaven on the eyes
But boy she's hell on the heart
      This one gets into detail on what attributes would make her loved more than anything in the world to him. She's beautiful, funny, smart, etc. From line 5 to the end shows how bad she is needed in his life. the lines: "When she's yours she brings the sunshine" "When she's gone the world goes dark" which is basically like I was saying previously. She's the one that brings eternal happiness to his world/heart and if he doesn't have her, he is nothing. Her looks are angelic but sometimes she can be demonic/hellish on the heart by the way she tugs at your heartstrings. No matter how much you are willing to let her go, you just can't because she's your everything.

Yeah she's good when she's bad
She's cute when she's mad
And she does all the wrong things right
Yeah boy it's a fact when they're made like that
You ain't ever gonna sleep at night

     This is basically like one of those contradicting aspects of these songs that are like: "The girl has that naughty string to their personality" and such. And when she's pissed/mad, you can't help but think that she's absolutely adorable cause, let's just face it, some girls are absolutely adorable when they are pissed and it's impossible for the guy to stay mad at them when they want to fight. And afterwards, the girl turns it from a negative to a positive in just a blink of an eye and you'll never be able to rest at night. Cause, let's face it, they're just made like that.

Once you feel her touch and you've felt that rush
It's gonna mess up your head
But here's the kicker son
Your old ticker's gonna beat you half to death
      When the guy finds that right girl, the touch they have possesses a rush that nothing else has, not even coffee or sugar. Their touch is their energy recharge. I know how it is because the last guy that I had, it was like that on both ends. I gave him energy and he gave me energy. But back on the note of the girl doing it, it will mess the guys' head up but there was a catch to it as well. Their "ticker" would catch up to them and beat them half to death cause of the addiction.

      This is inescapable and if it was, it will eat him alive until he got his addiction back.

Until next time music lovers,
