Disclosure Latch

You lift my heart up

When the rest of me is down

You, you enchant me, even when you’re not around

if there are boundaries, I will try and knock them down

I’m latching on babe

Now I know what I have found

I feel we’re close enough

I wanna lock on your love

I think we’re close enough

Could I lock in your love, baby?

Now I got you in my space

I won’t let go of you

Got you shackled in my embrace

I’m latching onto you

Now I got you in my space

I won’t let go of you

Got you shackled in my embrace

I’m latching onto you

I’m so encaptured, got me wrapped up in your touch

Feel so enamored, hold me tight within your clutch

How do you do it, you got me losing every breath

What did you give me to make my heart beat out my chest?
I feel we’re close enough

I wanna lock in your love

I think we’re close enough

Could I lock in your love, baby?

I feel we’re close enough

I wanna lock in your love

I think we’re close enough

Could I lock in your love, baby?

Now I got you in my space

I won’t let go of you

Got you shackled in my embrace

I’m latching onto you

Now I got you in my space

I won’t let go of you

Got you shackled in my embrace

I’m latching onto you

I’m latching onto you (I’m latching onto you)

I won’t let go of you (I won’t let go)

I’m latching onto you (I don’t wanna let go)

I won’t let go of you (I won’t let go, I won’t let go)

Analysis
I chose “Latch” because what the songwriter is saying is you opened up my heart with your love and now i’m locking my love onto your’s. I’m going to give you all of me the good and the bad. Also the songwriter is trying to get you to understand love is profound given by the right person. Love is amazing to have and feel. It’s like magic. The tone I get from this song is Joy, happiness and intensity. I also got that the songwriter is basically saying that the person’s love is the key to his heart. Latch means to enclose, to capture to hold onto. This song is showing unconditional love. This song uses metaphor, “Got you shackled in my embrace.” The author is using shackles which represents chains. The arms are the chains and it’s to hold onto the person he/she loves. The author also says, “ Feel so enamored, hold me tight within your clutch.” What the songwriter is saying here is that the person’s love has grasped a hold of them. That he/she has captured them by the love that the songwriter has felt from her/him. Disclosure also says, I’m so en captured, got me wrapped up in your touch.” Disclosure is saying The love he received got him wrapped up meaning the love he is covered with is all around him. Disclosure uses hyperbole when he says, How did you do it, you got me losing every breath. What did you give me to make my heart beat out my chest?” The songwriter is stating because of the person’s love is so strong and captivating that it feels like he is losing his breath and his heart is beating out of his chest. To me his heart could be beating rapidly after the love he received. Disclosure also spoke, “ You, you enchant me, even when you’re not around. If there are boundaries, I will try to knock them down.” What his point is his/her love has enchant him meaning the love has hypnotized him. You can also say that the love she gives him is controlling him and he is being guided by her love. Even when they aren’t in sight they can feel the love surrounding them. The boundaries meaning anything blocking him from loving her. To me even people can be a boundary.
This song shows repetition when he says, Now I got you in my space I'm latching onto you.

He is obsessed with the person love and he is not letting go he refuses to let go. He say's, I'm latching onto you (I don't wanna let go). I won't let go of you (I won't let go, I won't let go). The woman's love can be his drug that he is obsessed with. He say's, We're close enough. I want to lock in your love. The songwriter believes her love can give him hope. I can also say the songwriter is showing affection towards this woman because of his heartfelt lyrics about him latching onto the love she is giving him. The moral of latch is the simple fact of falling in love with someone.
