Lyrics
Ask me your questions, and tell me your life
Invitation to ask questions and share life experiences
Whisper to me all your deepest desires
Encouragement to reveal deepest desires through whispers
You give me yours, and I’ll give you mine
Mutual exchange of life experiences and desires
Oh, ask me your questions and tell me your life
Reiteration of the invitation to share life stories
Give me the answers you hide in your mind
Request for hidden answers from the mind
Open the door to see what’s inside
Encouragement to open up and reveal inner thoughts
Offer your hand and I’ll offer you mine
Offering mutual support and connection
Oh, ask me your questions and tell me your life
Reiteration of the willingness to listen and share
We don’t have to be alone
Emphasis on not being alone, suggesting companionship
We can write the rules while we go
Empowerment to create rules together in the journey of life
We reap just what we sow
Highlighting the principle of reaping what is sown
So you grow the garden and I’ll build the home
Metaphorical call to nurture growth ("grow the garden") while building a home
Oh, you grow the garden and I’ll build the home
Reiteration of the collaborative theme in lines 14
Ask me your questions and we’ll pass the time
Continuation of the invitation to share and spend time together
Maybe get lost, and just see what we find
Suggestion to explore and discover together
Let’s tell our stories through stars in the sky
Expressing storytelling through the symbolism of stars
Oh, ask me your questions and tell me your life
Reiteration of the invitation to share life stories
We don’t have to be alone
Emphasis on companionship and co-authorship of rules
We can write the rules as we go
Encouragement to shape the journey together
We reap just what we sow
Reiteration of the principle of reaping what is sown
So you grow the garden and I’ll build the home
Reiteration of the metaphorical call to nurture growth and build a home
Oh, you grow the garden and I’ll build the home
Reiteration of the collaborative theme in lines 25
And when the sun hangs low in the sky
Symbolic reference to the passage of time
There’ll be time for more questions but let’s build a life
Recognition of the importance of building a life together
