High Tonight
Navigating Life's Highs and Lows: A Musical Journey by Horace Greene
Lyrics
We walked, and then we ran you could tell how fast
We engaged in both walking and running, evident by the wear on our shoes.
By the holes in the soles of our shoes
The speed of our movement is reflected in the worn-out soles of our shoes.
You got sick aboard your own ship, don't let the flood fill your eyes
You fell ill on your own journey, but don't let the difficulties overwhelm you.
Cus you're gonna feel alright
You'll feel okay or content despite the challenges.
You say I'm weak so say no lies
Refuting false statements about weakness, emphasizing honesty.
Because the moon, you said, was high tonight
The moon is described as high tonight, possibly suggesting a significant moment.
Because the moon, you said, was high tonight
Reiteration of the moon being high tonight, emphasizing its importance.
Yes it's high but so are you
A acknowledgment that the moon is high, paralleling the elevated state of the speaker.
On other folks that you say you knew
Implying the speaker is also in an altered state due to others they claim to know.
With all these faces how do you tell
Pondering how to distinguish genuine faces from deceptive ones.
Which ones rust and which ones ring your bell?
Questioning which people are trustworthy and which ones bring joy or trouble.
If you're gonna sneak then do it right
If you're going to be sneaky, do it skillfully and discreetly.
Because the moon you said was high tonight
Reiterating the significance of the moon being high, linking it to the act of sneaking.
Because the moon you said was high tonight
Emphasizing once again that the moon is high tonight, underscoring its relevance.
You say I'm weak so say no lies
Rejecting false assertions of weakness, emphasizing truthfulness.
Because the moon you said was high tonight
Repeating the connection between the moon and the speaker's state of being.
Because the moon you said was high tonight
Reiteration of the moon's significance, suggesting a continued relevance.
Because the moon you said was high tonight
Again highlighting the importance of the moon being high tonight.
Because the moon you said was high tonight
Final repetition, emphasizing the enduring importance of the elevated moon.
