Speak Low
Whispers of Love: Unveiling the Timeless Message in 'Speak Low'
Lyrics
Speak low when you speak, love,
Advising to speak softly when expressing love.
Our summer day withers away
Describing the fleeting nature of a summer day.
Too soon, too soon.
Expressing regret for the brevity of the summer day.
Speak low when you speak, love,
Reiterating the advice to speak softly in love.
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift,
Comparing the briefness of their moment to ships drifting apart.
We're swept apart too soon.
Conveying the sorrow of being separated too soon.
Speak low, darling speak low,
Repeating the plea to speak softly in love.
Love is a spark lost in the dark,
Describing love as a fleeting spark lost in darkness.
Too soon, too soon,
Expressing the feeling that love ends prematurely.
I feel wherever I go
Sharing a sense of feeling followed by tomorrow's presence.
That tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here
Emphasizing the nearness of tomorrow.
And always too soon.
Stating that everything ends too soon.
Time is so old and love so brief,
Reflecting on the old age of time and the briefness of love.
Love is pure gold and time a thief.
Describing love as precious (pure gold) and time as a thief.
We're late darling, we're late,
Acknowledging being late in the course of love.
The curtain descends, ev'rything ends
Highlighting the inevitability of the end with the descending curtain.
Too soon, too soon,
Reiterating that everything ends too soon.
I wait darling, I wait
Expressing a sense of waiting for something, possibly love.
Will you speak low to me,
Pleading for a soft-spoken expression of love.
Speak love to me and soon.
Asking for the expression of love to happen soon.
