We all have a weakness,
But some of ours are easier to identify.
Look me in the eye
And ask for forgiveness;
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again.
Yes, you are my friend.
We all have something that digs at us;
At least we dig each other.
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday.
If I turn into another,
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies,
No matter how hard we try.
We all have someone that digs at us;
At least we dig each other.
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine.
If I turn into another,
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
WATCO understanding each others' weaknesses in a relationship on the happiness of each member of the relationship?
Audience: the girlfriend.
Enthymeme: (a)Understanding each others' weaknesses in a relationship (b) enriches the happiness of each member of the relationship, because (a1) knowing the pitfalls of someone's personality (c) makes one more likely to hold on to and help the relationship.
Assumption: Whatever (c) makes you more likely to hold on to and help the relationship (b) enriches the happiness of each member of the relationship.
Ethos: "Yes, you are my friend." Doesn't that just say enough for credibility?
Pathos: The lyrics are pretty good, and they make you feel for the boyfriend since he's the one forgiving the girlfriend. He also asks her to be there to dig him out from under whatever crap he puts himself under - emotional!
Logos: I suppose it is true that everyone has "a weakness, but some of ours are easier to identify." The logical flow also makes sense - if I turn into somebody I'm not because of my weakness, remind me of who I really am.
S: I wouldn't call any of this sufficient, but what the hey, it's a catchy song.
T: This is a typical example - anyone who has been in a relationship understands the pitfalls of personality flaws.
A: Life is the most authentic source you can have. That and the internet.
R: What little information is in the song is perfectly relevant to the argument.
