About a harry styles new song

Question

Hi, I would like to ask you one question about a song by Harry Styles.

i am Japanese and I would like to know the real meaning of the music lyrics.

the bold font parts are the sentences which I want to know the meaning. Is it like metaphor phrases??

From ice on rice

Music for a sushi restaurant

Music for a sushi restaurant

Music for whatever you want

I'm not going to get lost

I'm not going to go broke

Staying cool

Know I love you, babe

If the stars were edible

And our hearts were never full

Could we live with just a taste?

Just a taste

It's 'cause I love you, babe

In every kind of way

Just a little taste

You know I love you, babe

I hope someone will be able to answer the questions.

Thanks

Answer 1

The song is a metaphor comparing foods in a sushi restaurant to his desire for a relationship with a girl. When Styles says "if our hearts were never full, could we live with just a taste", he really means that if he doesn't ever have a feeling of fullness or a true relationship with a girl he likes, he just wants to experience feelings of romance and a "spark" between him and this girl. Additionally, you can see here in an excerpt from the song how he compares food commonly found in a sushi restaurant to romance:

"Green eyes, fried rice, I could cook an egg on you" (source: www.genius.com)

He implies that the girl is "so hot" that he could cook an egg on her. See how the metaphor comes together! This is a songwriting technique that is commonly used in pop music. I hope this answer helps!
