About This Quote

Where is the man who could ease a heart like a satin gown? The meaning of this quote is asking for a man who is gentle and caring. The words “heart” and “satin gown” are quite confusing. In the context of the statement “Where’s the man that could ease a heart like a satin gown?”, one might think that someone asked where the man was to put on a negligee. One might think that someone said, “Where is the man who could put on a satin nightgown?” or “Where is the man who can put on a satin nightgown?” But in all three cases, it would make no sense to ask for a man who can put on a nightgown. In each case, the implication would be that someone was looking for an outfit or something that can be worn rather than looking for a person to wear it.
