Liza
Liza's Melancholy Journey: A Poetic Tale of Life's Ebb and Flow
Lyrics
Oh I woke up today
Waking up to a new day
And the red sky had warned me away
Observing a warning in the red sky
Oh I woke up today
Experiencing another day
And I thought that death had swept me away
Contemplating the possibility of death
And I said hey hey Liza where have you been
Addressing someone named Liza
Where have you been
Repetition for emphasis
I'll see you, I'll see you again
Expressing the intention to meet again
Oh the dragging of her feet
Describing the sound of Liza's footsteps
Made life music for the ghosts in the street
Symbolizing the impact on the spirits in the street
And in silence she did weep
Noting Liza's silent sorrow
To the rustle of her mind's own defeat
Referring to the defeat in Liza's thoughts
And I said hey hey Liza where have you been
Repeated address to Liza
Where have you been
Reiteration of the intention to meet again
I'll see you, I'll see you again
Expressing the desire for a future encounter
Oh I woke up today
Repeating the experience of waking up
And the grey sky had painted
Noting the impact of a grey sky on Liza's face
A mile on your face oh I woke up today
Continuation of the waking experience
And I thought that death had swept me away
Revisiting the contemplation of death
And I said hey hey Liza where have you been
Readdressing Liza with a question about her whereabouts
Where have you been
Repeating the desire to meet again
I'll see you, I'll see you again
Restating the anticipation of a future encounter
Oh I woke up today
Repetition of the waking experience
And the red sky had warned me away
Recalling the warning in the red sky
Oh I woke up today
Reiteration of waking up
And I thought that death had swept me away
Reflecting on the potential impact of death
And I said hey hey Liza where have you been
Repeated inquiry about Liza's whereabouts
Where have you been
Reaffirmation of the intention to meet again
I'll see you, I'll see you again
Concluding the expression of anticipation for a future meeting
