There's a place in the sun,
For anyone who has the will to chase one
And I think I've found mine,
Yes, I do believe I have found mine, so
Close your eyes,
And think of someone,
You physically admire
And let me kiss you,
Let me kiss you
I've zig-zagged all over America,
And I cannot find a safety haven
Say, would you let me cry,
On your shoulder
I've heard that you'll will try anything twice
Close your eyes,
And think of someone,
You physically admire,
And let me kiss you,
Let me kiss you
But then you open your eyes,
And you see someone,
That you physically despise
But my heart is open
My heart is open to you
For anyone who has the will to chase one
And I think I've found mine,
Yes, I do believe I have found mine, so
Close your eyes,
And think of someone,
You physically admire
And let me kiss you,
Let me kiss you
I've zig-zagged all over America,
And I cannot find a safety haven
Say, would you let me cry,
On your shoulder
I've heard that you'll will try anything twice
Close your eyes,
And think of someone,
You physically admire,
And let me kiss you,
Let me kiss you
But then you open your eyes,
And you see someone,
That you physically despise
But my heart is open
My heart is open to you

Creative song by a most creative artist, but it's sad. Obviously he doesn't like his body (an all-too familiar feeling) but he's hoping she will like him if she only imagines she's kissing someone else. The song's about what he sees in the mirror (his insecurities) and he has little faith in the woman he loves/likes. Sadly too many people are superficial and believe that good looks are forever and that they actually matter in the big scheme of life. Some of the homeliest men (by society's standards) have been the greatest guys I've known. One is a good friend w/ me on FB and he's had two gorgeous wives. His heart and soul are sexy/beautiful, and at least two women knew to look beyond his physical features. Only mature people should marry; there should be a test ;)
It may not necessarily be his body he doesn't like. It may be he doesn't like himself (his personality, etc) very much. I do love the song. Morrissey is incredibly talented. He's high up on my list of musical greats.
