Almost a week ago now, I was thinking about "She Does Everything for Me," and I realized a musicological feature I hadn't noticed before. In the first verse, there's the line "She won't lead me up with air," and throughout that first verse, the chord progression descends (F# minor, E major, D major, C# major). The chord progression there further emphasizes what the lyrics have.
