The Fool
Chasing Shadows: Eddie Navega's Reflective Melody
Lyrics
Perfect day
A beautiful or excellent day.
Right as rain
Everything is going well and is in good order.
Under cover through the morning
Moving forward while remaining concealed or protected during the early hours of the day.
What to say that still holds true
Searching for words that still ring true or hold significance.
So very few things that come to mind
Struggling to think of very few things that remain relevant or meaningful.
But I'm hanging still
Remaining in a state of suspension or inactivity.
Under those quiet memories
Recalling quiet memories from the past.
When a timeless feeling passed through us all
Experiencing a feeling that transcends time.
Open your eyes (open your eyes)
Advice or encouragement to be attentive or aware.
Cash in your hand (cash in your hand)
Holding physical currency or tangible assets.
All the while holding on to what you can
While managing to retain what you possess.
Lost the touch
Losing a skill or ability to connect.
Been too long
Too much time has passed.
Maybe the spirit's moving on and on
Suggesting the possibility that the soul or essence is moving onward and continuously.
Giving myself up
Yielding or giving up oneself.
Sweet surrender to what may come
Embracing whatever may happen or come next.
Though it seems so long
Referring to something that appears distant in time.
And so far away
Seemingly unattainable or far from the present.
Some things can't be undone, some things can't be unfelt
Things that cannot be reversed or erased, and emotions that cannot be forgotten.
Open your eyes (open your eyes)
Encouragement to be aware or attentive (repeated from line 10).
Cash in your hand (cash in your hand)
Holding tangible assets or resources (repeated from line 11).
All the while holding on to what you can
While still retaining what one has (repeated from line 12).
In the distance
Something distant and not easily perceivable.
Can't see it straight
Unable to clearly see or comprehend.
Always playing the fool
Consistently acting in a manner that others perceive as foolish.
Open your eyes (open your eyes)
Encouragement to be attentive or aware (repeated from lines 10 and 23).
Cash in your hand (cash in your hand)
Holding tangible assets or resources (repeated from lines 11 and 24).
Holding on to what you can
While still retaining what one has (repeated from lines 12 and 25).
