Deeper And Deeper

Madonna's 'Deeper And Deeper' is a song that explores the themes of love and the influence of parental guidance on one's approach to relationships. The lyrics describe a person who is experiencing an intense and growing love, one that becomes 'deeper and sweeter' as time goes on. This metaphor of depth and sweetness suggests a love that is both profound and enriching, a love that is continually evolving and becoming more fulfilling.

The song also touches on the lessons imparted by the protagonist's parents. The mother's advice to 'think with your heart, not with your head' and the father's influence through a song he made the protagonist learn, indicate that the protagonist's approach to love is deeply rooted in their upbringing. These parental lessons seem to have shaped the protagonist's willingness to embrace love fully, without hesitation or fear. The repeated lines 'Daddy couldn't be all wrong' and 'my mama made me learn this song' underscore the trust in the wisdom passed down from parents.

Furthermore, the song reflects a journey of self-acceptance and the courage to express one's feelings openly. The lines 'Never gonna hide it again' and 'Never gonna have to pretend' reveal a determination to live authentically and to love without reservation. The reference to letting the body 'move to the music' and 'go with the flow' suggests a surrender to the natural rhythm of love, embracing its unpredictability and the joy it brings.
