Melodies of Solitude: Easing Broken Dreams with Mr. Songman
Lyrics
Here's another dime for you, Mr. Songman
Offering payment to the singer, Mr. Songman, possibly for a song that provides solace.
Sing the loneliness of broken dreams away, if you can
Requesting Mr. Songman to sing away the loneliness associated with shattered dreams.
Yes it's only me and you, Mr. Songman
Acknowledging a personal connection between the speaker and Mr. Songman in a moment of solitude.
Take away the night sing away my hurt, Mr. Songman
Asking Mr. Songman to use his singing to dispel the darkness and heal the speaker's pain.
In your ivory covered house, safe behind your walls of glass
Describing Mr. Songman's dwelling as protected and adorned, creating a sense of separation.
You keep staring back at me like a memory from the past
Noting Mr. Songman's gaze as reminiscent of a memory, suggesting a connection to the past.
Won't you sing me away to a summer night
Requesting to be transported through song to a joyful summer night.
Let me hold you in my arms again
Expressing a desire to embrace Mr. Songman, seeking comfort in his musical embrace.
I know memory's not re-living
Recognizing that memories cannot fully replicate the experience but finding solace in them nonetheless.
But at least it's not the end
Acknowledging that memories, though not the end, offer a form of continuation.
Here's another dime for you Mr. Songman
Repeating the gesture of offering payment to Mr. Songman for his singing.
Sing the loneliness of broken dreams away, if you can
Reiterating the request for Mr. Songman to sing away the loneliness caused by shattered dreams.
Yes it's only me and you, Mr. Songman
Reaffirming the intimate connection between the speaker and Mr. Songman during a moment of solitude.
Won't you take away the night, sing away my hurt, Mr. Songman
Urging Mr. Songman to use his singing to dispel the night and alleviate the speaker's pain.
Won't you sing me away to a summer night
Requesting to be transported through song to a cherished summer night once again.
Let me hold her in my arms again
Expressing a desire to hold a loved one in arms during that idyllic summer night.
Take away the night sing away my hurt, Mr. Songman
Reiterating the plea for Mr. Songman to use his singing to alleviate the speaker's pain in the night.
