Anastasia
Anastasia: A Tale of Unrequited Love and Radiant Longing
Lyrics
She's the one who all the boys want
She is the desired one for all the boys.
But she's barely breaking stride
She faces challenges effortlessly.
When I look and see her standing there
The speaker admires her presence.
I'm all butterflies inside
The speaker feels nervous and excited around her.
Her name means "the resurrection"
Her name symbolizes rebirth or renewal.
It's not too far from true
Her name holds a meaningful truth.
I'm afraid that if I write this song
The speaker is hesitant to express his feelings through the song.
She might break my heart in two
Fear of potential heartbreak if the song is written.
She hits the mark
She meets expectations or standards.
The kindled spark
There is a spark or connection.
But I'll just drag her down
The speaker fears being a negative influence on her.
Down
Repetition emphasizes the fear of bringing her down.
Far away in distant skies
Implies a distant, dreamy setting.
I see starlight in your eyes
The speaker sees hope or positivity in her eyes.
Do you think of miracles
Questioning the possibility of miracles.
Are they only dreams for fools
Suggests skepticism or doubt about dreams.
She's the one who haunts my dreams at night
She occupies the speaker's thoughts at night.
Underneath the bluest moon
Describes a romantic, enchanting setting.
She makes hearts skip beats in triplets
Her presence creates excitement or nervousness in others.
The brightest light in any room
She stands out as the brightest in any gathering.
She hits the mark
Reiteration of the connection or spark.
The kindled spark
Repeats the fear of being a negative influence.
But I'll just drag her down
Emphasizes the speaker's apprehension.
Down, down, down, down
Repetition intensifies the fear of dragging her down.
When Anastasia smiles
Her smile brings brightness to the world.
The world is getting lighter
Positive impact of her smile on the world.
When Anastasia wakes
Positive changes or awakening associated with her waking.
The lights come on inside her
Inner illumination when she wakes up.
And stars will light the path for her tonight
Positive imagery of stars guiding her path.
And yes, the moon is burning oh so bright
Expresses the brightness and intensity of the moon.
Anastasia
Reiteration of her name, possibly emphasizing her importance.
