Speak Low
Whispers of Love: Unveiling the Ephemeral Dance of Time
Lyrics
Speak low when you speak, love,
Advising to speak softly or discreetly when expressing love.
Our summer day withers away
Describing the fleeting nature of a summer day.
Too soon, too soon.
Emphasizing the brevity of the summer, suggesting it ends too quickly.
Speak low when you speak, love,
Reiterating the advice to speak softly in the context of love.
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift,
Comparing the swift passage of their moment to ships drifting apart.
We're swept apart too soon.
Expressing the feeling of being separated too soon.
Speak low, darling speak low,
Repeating the advice to speak softly, adding a term of endearment.
Love is a spark lost in the dark,
Describing love as a fleeting spark that gets lost in the dark.
Too soon, too soon,
Reiterating that love ends prematurely.
I feel wherever I go
Expressing a sense of awareness or anticipation wherever the speaker goes.
That tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here
Feeling that tomorrow, and the future, is always close or already here.
And always too soon.
Stressing that things always end too soon.
Time is so old and love so brief,
Reflecting on the contrast between the age of time and the brevity of love.
Love is pure gold and time a thief.
Metaphorically portraying love as pure gold and time as a thief.
We're late darling, we're late,
Acknowledging being late in the progression of their relationship.
The curtain descends, ev'rything ends
Describing the end of everything, symbolized by a descending curtain.
Too soon, too soon,
Reiterating that everything ends too soon.
I wait darling, I wait
Expressing a sense of waiting, possibly for more time or a continuation.
Will you speak low to me,
Pleading to speak softly to the speaker.
Speak love to me and soon.
Asking for love to be expressed softly and soon.
