Promise Me
Eternal Love's Vigil: Promise Me
Lyrics
Promise me
Expressing a desire for commitment and assurance.
You light up another cigarette
Observing the partner lighting a cigarette.
And I pour the wine
Pouring wine, creating a setting for intimacy.
It's four o'clock in the morning
Describing the early morning time.
And it's starting to get light
Daylight emerging, possibly symbolizing clarity.
Now I'm right where I want to be
Contentment with the current moment.
Losing track of time
Losing awareness of time, immersed in the experience.
But I wish that it was still last night
Wishing to prolong the previous night.
You look like you're in another world
Perceiving the partner's mental distance.
But I can read your mind
Claiming the ability to understand the partner's thoughts.
How can you be so far away
Expressing emotional distance despite physical proximity.
Lying by my side
Sharing physical space but feeling a disconnect.
When I go away I'll miss you
Anticipating separation and expressing a sense of missing.
And I will be thinking of you
Committing to constant thoughts about the partner.
Every night and day just
Implied continuation of thoughts throughout day and night.
Promise me you'll wait for me
Requesting a commitment to wait during absence.
'Cause I'll be saving all my love for you
Saving love exclusively for the partner.
And I will be home soon
Assuring a return home in the near future.
Promise me you'll wait for me
Reiterating the request for commitment during separation.
I need to know you feel the same way too
Desiring mutual feelings of waiting and commitment.
And I'll be home, I'll be home soon
Reaffirming the promise to return home soon.
When I go away I'll miss you
Repeating the anticipation of missing the partner.
And I will be thinking of you
Recommitting to constant thoughts about the partner.
Every night and day just
Continuation of thoughts and emotions day and night.
Promise me you'll wait for me
Reiterating the request for commitment during absence.
'Cause I'll be saving all my love for you
Reaffirming the commitment to save love for the partner.
And I will be home soon
Ensuring the imminent return home.
Promise me you'll wait for me
Requesting mutual commitment and assurance of feelings.
I need to know you feel the same way too
Desiring confirmation of reciprocal emotions.
And I'll be home, I'll be home soon
Reaffirming the promise to return home soon.
Promise me you'll wait for me
Reiterating the request for commitment during absence.
'Cause I'll be saving all my love for you
Committing to saving love for the partner exclusively.
And I will be home soon
Expressing the imminent return home.
Promise me you'll wait for me
Reiterating the request for commitment during absence.
I need to know you feel the same way too
Seeking confirmation of mutual feelings and commitment.
And I'll be home, I'll be home soon
Reaffirming the promise to return home soon.
