Moon Call
Moon Call: Embracing Solitude and Self-Discovery in the Night
Lyrics
I was left waiting out for the day
The speaker was left waiting during the day.
Keeping in trouble and keeping at bay
They were dealing with trouble and keeping it at a distance.
If I live by the quiet light, then I may learn how to play the game
Living by the calm or subtle light might help them understand how to navigate life.
Alone
Emphasizes being alone.
Alone
Reiterates the feeling of being alone.
The sun sets down by the water line
Describes the sunset near water, signaling the approach of night.
Waiting quietly for the night
Waiting silently for nightfall.
If the moon is on time tonight
Expresses anticipation for the moon's arrival, possibly for company.
Then they may be alone
If the moon arrives, it might mean being alone.
I was left waiting out for the night
Similar to line 1 but waiting during the night this time.
Keeping to myself and playing it right
Keeping to themselves and following the right path.
Alone
Reiterating the sense of solitude.
Alone
Emphasizing being alone again.
The sun sets down by the water line
Repeats the imagery of sunset by water, preparing for the night.
Waiting quietly for the night
Quietly waiting for nightfall again.
If the moon is on time tonight
Anticipating the moon's arrival once more.
Then they may be alone
Implies the possibility of being alone with the moon's arrival.
Alone
Repeats the feeling of solitude.
Alone
Reiterating the sense of being alone.
Certain things, I see that I beg
The speaker notices certain things and feels compelled or desiring.
Running back to you, and oh well I bet
Reflects on returning to someone, acknowledging a bet or prediction.
By the time I can see, you and I, but it's only me
Realizing that despite seeing 'you and I,' it's just the speaker.
And now I know, I'm alone
Realization of being alone.
I can tell you are with me
Feeling your presence, acknowledging a connection.
There's only you (Alone)
Despite feeling your presence, the speaker acknowledges being alone.
I can tell you are with me
Reaffirming the feeling of your presence.
I can see you.
The speaker sees you, possibly indicating a figurative perception.
I can tell that I'm with you
Feeling a connection or being with you.
I can see you
The speaker sees you again, repeating the earlier sentiment.
