St. Patrick
Navigating the Seas of Love: St. Patrick's Reflection
Lyrics
I didn't sleep at all last night
I experienced insomnia last night.
I thought my heart had mastered the run of these seas
I believed my heart had control over navigating life's challenges.
But they appear not to care about calming lately
The challenges (seas) seem indifferent to bringing comfort recently.
I awoke with a smart and a look at the phone.
I woke up with pain and immediately checked the phone.
I swear that I would have called you if I'd been sure you were alone.
I would have called you if I was certain you were alone.
And doesn't that drive things home?
This realization strongly emphasizes a point.
The hardest time to forget is when sleep clears your mind,
The most challenging time to forget is when waking up from sleep.
Bringing up what might have been, and who's by her side.
Thoughts of what could have been and who she's with come to mind.
And if I appear forlorn, that's the reason truly.
If I seem sad, it's genuinely because of these thoughts.
Should I find myself a surrogate to keep the winters warm
Considering finding someone else to fill the void during winters.
Blame her for my former love and blunt her of her charms?
Contemplating blaming her for past love and diminishing her attractiveness.
Oh dear Saint Patrick, I pray for some water
Seeking assistance from Saint Patrick, perhaps for clarity or resolution.
Jut let me quench my thirst this morning after.
Requesting relief or resolution for a current issue.
And this girl by my side, well who knows the future?
The girl by my side raises uncertainty about the future.
But if I appear forgetful she's the reason on my mind
If I seem forgetful, it's because of her presence in my thoughts.
If you detect a smile it's as I dream of foreign lands
If you notice a smile, it's because I'm dreaming of distant places.
And letting things get out of hand
Allowing things to become chaotic and uncontrolled is part of my plan.
Is exactly what I've got planned!
(Reinforcing that letting things go out of hand is intentional.)
