Landline
Weathering Love's Storm: A Landline's Call to Connection
Lyrics
I think the tree may fall in the front yard
I'm concerned that a tree might fall in the front yard
If this storm has it's way
Expressing worry about a storm causing potential damage
I hear you dancing on the floorboards above
I hear you moving energetically on the floor above
Unaware of what's at stake
Someone is oblivious to the risks involved
All I ever needed was a landline
A metaphorical desire for a reliable connection or support
Just in case the power lines go down
Desiring a landline as a backup if power lines fail
All I needed would never be enough for me
The speaker's needs are greater than what is available
I think the storm may take the screen door
Concern that the storm might damage the screen door
If the wind gets it's way
The potential impact of the wind on the screen door
I hear you singing on the floor just below
Hearing someone singing below, still unaware of the danger
Unaware of what's at stake
Reiteration of someone's lack of awareness of the situation
All I ever needed was a landline
Expressing the simplicity of needing a reliable communication line
Just in case the power lines go down
The importance of having a landline in case of power failure
All I needed would never be enough for me
Reinforcing that the speaker's needs surpass what they have
All I ever needed was a landline
Continued emphasis on the importance of a landline
Just in case the power lines go down
Reiteration of the necessity for a landline in emergencies
All I needed would never be enough for me
Stating that what was needed previously is insufficient
All I ever needed was a landline
Repeating the importance of having a reliable connection
Just in case the power lines go down
Highlighting the need for a landline in case of power outage
All I needed would never be enough for me
Emphasizing that the existing resources are inadequate
All I needed would never be enough for me
The current situation or available resources are insufficient
All I needed would never be enough for me
Repetition of the inadequacy of what was previously sufficient
All I needed would
Incomplete thought, possibly conveying ongoing dissatisfaction
All I needed would never be enough for me
Continued dissatisfaction with what is available
All I needed would never be enough for me
Reiteration of the insufficiency of current resources
