- Buttons LyricsI said darling why so blue
She told me I been missin’ you
He said leave and she said stay
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
Lost them buttons to my overcoat
Pull your knife away from my throat
She said smoke your cigarette I hope you choke
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
I shake, I shake I could never see
How good young love could really be
I know, I know it’s not that bad
Take a look at what we had
Walked you home from the park
Held your hand it was after dark
Hold me close, said she’ll always stay
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
Lost them buttons to my overcoat
Pull your knife away from my throat
She said smoke your cigarette I hope you choke
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
I shake, I shake I could never see
How good young love could really be
I know, I know it’s not that bad Take a look at what we had
She told me I been missin’ you
He said leave and she said stay
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
Lost them buttons to my overcoat
Pull your knife away from my throat
She said smoke your cigarette I hope you choke
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
I shake, I shake I could never see
How good young love could really be
I know, I know it’s not that bad
Take a look at what we had
Walked you home from the park
Hold me close, said she’ll always stay
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
Lost them buttons to my overcoat
Pull your knife away from my throat
She said smoke your cigarette I hope you choke
Kissed my lips and quickly ran away
I shake, I shake I could never see
How good young love could really be
I know, I know it’s not that bad Take a look at what we had

When we try to interpret the meaning, 'Buttons' is a song by The Weeks that illustrates a very difficult relationship where one partner is uncertain, and continuously retreats, thus the other one feels disoriented and hurt. The metaphor of 'lost buttons' and 'pull your knife away from my throat' used throughout the song is a representation of the weakness and pain that people suffer in such a relationship. At the same time, the chorus talks about the abuses of young love and how people realize that even though the past was hard, the moments spent together were worth it. The lyrics of Buttons bring forth mainly love, reflection, heartbreak, nostalgia, and angst. However, on the other hand, they convey the importance of youth love, pain, and longing as well as conflict and tension. The lyrics introduce some quite adult themes, such as smoking and violence metaphorically depicted with 'pull your knife away from my throat', that are directly associated with relationships and emotional turmoil. Although these aspects may not be appropriate for very young children, still they do not reach the level of intensity which a more severe rating would imply.
