This is a Music Trope where the chorus is intentionally written to have two or more interpretations, frequently a literal one and a metaphorical or spiritual one. Each verse sets up a new and different interpretation for the chorus. Done well, it makes the audience say, "Ohh, that puts it in a whole new light." A staple of country music, but not exclusive to it. Can also show up in poems that have a repeating refrain. Compare Dark Reprise. Often overlaps with Age Progression Song. Subtrope of Double Meaning. Examples of Dual-Meaning Chorus include:
