Lyrics
In the night forlorn the morning is born,
In the night when one feels abandoned, the morning brings a new beginning.
And the morning shines with the glow of love,
The morning is illuminated with the warmth of love.
You will miss sunrise if you close your eyes,
Warning against missing opportunities (sunrise) by closing one's eyes, metaphorically indicating ignorance or avoidance.
And that would break my heart in two.
Fearing that missing these opportunities would cause deep emotional pain.
If I needed you
Expressing a hypothetical situation of needing someone.
Would you come to me?
Asking if the person would be willing to come and provide support if needed.
Would you come to me and ease my pain?
Seeking comfort and relief from emotional distress.
If you needed me
Flipping the scenario, expressing willingness to offer help if the other person needs it.
I would come to you,
Commitment to overcoming challenges, even if it means going to great lengths.
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain.
Willingness to go to extremes, symbolized by swimming the sea, to alleviate the other person's pain.
Baby's with me now since I showed her how,
Referring to the presence of a baby since the speaker demonstrated how to nurture a relationship.
To lay her lily hand in mine,
Describing the intimate connection achieved by holding hands.
Look and you'll agree she's a sight to see,
Encouraging observation of the beauty of the partner.
A treasure for the poor to find.
Highlighting the partner as a valuable discovery for those less fortunate.
If I needed you
Reiteration of the hypothetical scenario, emphasizing the need for support.
Would you come to me?
Repeating the request for assistance and comfort.
Would you come to me and ease my pain?
Reiterating the desire for support and relief from pain.
If you needed me
Reversal of roles, expressing readiness to provide assistance when needed.
I would come to you,
Commitment to overcoming challenges and difficulties for the well-being of the other person.
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain.
Symbolic gesture of great devotion and effort to alleviate the other person's suffering.
I'll ease your pain.
Reaffirmation of the commitment to bring comfort and relief.
