I Want to See Another World
Yearning for a New Horizon: Jefferson Starship's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
I want to see another world
I desire to experience a different world
For me and my child
This desire is for both myself and my child
My old lady, too
My partner (old lady) shares this desire as well
Maybe you
Possibly including you (the listener) in this desire
If we can
If we are capable
If we get to
If we manage to
I want to see another world
Reiteration of the desire to see another world
I want to see another world.
Strong emphasis on the desire to see another world
I think you might see a great ship up in the sky
Imagery of a great ship in the sky, symbolizing hope and freedom
Like an eagle, like a stallion
Comparisons to majestic creatures, suggesting strength and grace
Might be a burning silver wheel
Reference to a burning silver wheel, possibly a metaphor for enlightenment
Let you know you can fly
Suggesting that recognizing one's abilities can lead to a sense of freedom
Look up in the sky
Encouraging to look beyond the ordinary
Look up through the darkness
Encouraging to persevere through challenging times
I think it might be love.
Speculation that the extraordinary might be a manifestation of love
I want to see another world
Reiteration of the desire to see another world
For me and my child
Reiterating that the desire is for oneself, child, and partner
My old lady, too
Confirmation that the partner shares the same desire
Maybe you
Suggesting the possibility of others sharing the desire
If we can
If it is achievable
If we get to
If we successfully reach that state
I want to see another world
Reiteration of the desire to see another world
I want to see another world
Strong emphasis on the desire to see another world
I want to see another world
Reiteration of the intense desire for a different world
When all the sky is darkness
Describing a scenario where everything is dark in the sky
When all the ground you know is gone
Alluding to the loss of familiar ground
How the solar wind she blows
Metaphor of the solar wind as a force of change
Snowy silver dragon sings the songs
Imagery of a snowy silver dragon singing songs, representing beauty and transformation
Flying straight up to the sky
Depicting upward movement towards the sky
Great singing engines sigh and
Engines symbolizing power and determination
Drive this metal fragment into time.
Action of propelling a fragment through time
Let's try to get along with each other
Advocacy for unity and cooperation among people
Sister and brother
Specifically mentioning various relationships to emphasize universal love
Father and mother
Further emphasizing the concept that everyone is a lover
Everyone's a lover.
Reiteration of the idea that all individuals are capable of love
I want to see another world
Repeating the strong desire for a different world
Let's try to get along with each other
Encouragement for harmonious relationships and cooperation
Sister and brother
Reiteration of the importance of unity among siblings
Father and mother
Highlighting the significance of familial harmony
Everyone's a lover.
Emphasizing that everyone is capable of love
Get along with each other
Stressing the need for collaboration among siblings
Sister and brother
Reiteration of the importance of unity among siblings
