This song was a favorite of my peers in middle school. I think it is an interesting reverse of the "woman as sweet food object" songs. Here, McLachlan, instead of correlating the individual to the food, she correlates their love, which is very different than what other, similarly themed musical pieces do.
Your love is better than ice cream
better than anything else that I've tried
and your love is better than ice cream
everyone here know how to fight
and it's a long way down
it's a long way down
it's a long way down to the place
where we started from
Your love is better than chocolate
better than anything else that I've tried
oh love is better than chocolate
everyone here knows how to cry
it's a long way down
it's a long way down
it's a long way down to the place
where we started from...
