Home and Away
Echoes of Love's Journey: Unveiling the Emotions in Humble Pie's 'Home and Away'
Lyrics
When she turns away I cry
Expresses emotional pain when the person turns away.
All I want to know is why
Seeking understanding or reasons for the situation.
Shut the light out, close your eyes
Symbolically shutting out or avoiding facing a difficult reality.
When you wake her, say goodbye
Suggests a farewell when waking the person.
What does she do when I hide
Curiosity about the person's actions when the speaker hides.
When can I be by her side, yes again--again--again
Desire to be close repeatedly and the longing to reunite.
Strap me in a ship that flies
Metaphorically wanting to be taken away to a better place.
Hit the ground, you breathe a sigh
Relief upon arrival or return, indicated by a sigh.
Kiss the ground, she smiles hello
Showing affection upon meeting again.
Time apart just makes love grow
Belief that separation strengthens love.
What does she say to make me feel good
Desire to hear words that affirm and uplift.
Now that I'm here by her side, once again
Gratitude for being back together.
I'll give you all I have
Commitment to giving everything.
Don't you see I'll give my life
Willingness to sacrifice for the relationship.
Autumn comes again so near
Symbolizing change, with autumn representing a phase of transition.
Leaves are falling fast I fear
Feeling time passing quickly, a sense of urgency or loss.
Turn the heat on, wipe your eyes
Seeking comfort and trying to ease pain or sorrow.
What you have, can never die
Expresses the belief that the bond is everlasting.
Now is the time that I know why, know why
Realization or understanding of the reason for a situation.
When can I be by her side, yes again
Repeated desire to reunite with the person.
I'll give you all I have
Reiteration of commitment and willingness to give everything.
Don't you see I'll give my life
Reaffirmation of readiness to sacrifice for the relationship.
I'll give my life for you
Strong declaration of willingness to give up everything for the person.
I'll give my life for you
Repetition of the commitment to sacrifice everything.
