Here is my analysis on my song of choices…
“Fresh Eyes”
I got these fresh eyes, never seen you before like this
My God, you’re beautiful
It’s like the first time when we open the door
Before we got used to usualIt might seem superficial, stereotypical, man
You dress up just a little and I’m like, “Ohhh, damn”So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyesAppreciation, well, it comes and it goes
But I, I’ll ride that wave with you
It’s human nature to miss what’s under your nose
‘Til you, ’til you remind a foolMaybe all of this is simple
My heart’s unconditional, yeah
You dress up just a little and I’m like, “Ohhh, damn”So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
My God, you’re beautiful
It’s like the first time when we open the door
Before we got used to usualIt might seem superficial, stereotypical, man
You dress up just a little and I’m like, “Ohhh, damn”So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyesAppreciation, well, it comes and it goes
But I, I’ll ride that wave with you
It’s human nature to miss what’s under your nose
‘Til you, ’til you remind a foolMaybe all of this is simple
My heart’s unconditional, yeah
You dress up just a little and I’m like, “Ohhh, damn”So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
If I could bottle this up, bottle, bottle this up, I would
I would bottle this up, bottle, bottle this up, I would
Cause you’re gorgeous in this moment
If I could bottle this up, I would
So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I’m in love with a stranger
I can’t believe she’s mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes

This is a well done song analysis. You did a good job on identifying those meaningful idioms and your interpretation of the song is very good but maybe you could give a more specific meaning of “fresh eyes” for it is the title and he repeats it a lot in the song other than that I think everything is great 🙂

The way you emphasized the idioms in this and gave a proper example of how they are used made this analysis very good. Same as Kaitlin, a bit more specific meaning of “fresh eyes” would of made it even better, other than that this is very good.
