Too Late Love Comes
Embracing Love's Belated Dance: A Reflection on Life's Timing
Lyrics
My home has been a warrior field
Describing the home as a battleground, a place of conflict or struggle.
Where now and then I've seen
Reflecting occasional experiences of witnessing uplifting moments.
A rainbow rising over the graves
Imagery of a rainbow emerging above graves in a peaceful green setting.
Down in the gentle green
Contrast between the graves and the serene green surroundings.
And as I waltzed across the mine
Describing a dance across a dangerous area, possibly symbolizing life's challenges.
Time sped to breathlessly
Time moving swiftly and intensifying the experience.
As I fought for love
Engaging in a fight for love, suggesting a struggle or effort in relationships.
And I sang for love
Expressing love through singing, possibly as a form of emotional release.
Too late, love comes to me
Realization that love arrives too late, possibly after a personal struggle.
I saw you coming over the hill
Observing someone approaching with strength, bravery, and truthfulness.
So strong, so brave, so true
Admiration for the qualities of the approaching person.
I fell down to my knees and cried
Falling to knees in a moment of intense emotion, reminiscent of past experiences.
The way I used to do
Recalling a familiar emotional reaction from the past.
It came at such surprise to me
Expressing surprise at the reappearance of emotional tears.
I thought those tears had passed
Believing that the emotional pain was overcome, but it resurfaces.
Is it god who laughs this heart awake?
Pondering whether divine forces play a role in awakening the heart with laughter.
Too late, love comes at last
Realization that love arrives belatedly, after certain life experiences.
O lovers how they come and go
Reflection on the transient nature of love, likened to the ebb and flow of waves.
Like waves upon the shore
Acknowledging the fleeting and unpredictable nature of relationships.
Brave hearts can drown in the briny deep
Brave individuals may face emotional depths but still yearn for more.
And still cry out for more
Emphasizing the paradox of brave hearts experiencing deep emotions.
My treasure's in the water now
Personal treasures submerged in emotional depths, possibly referring to lost love.
My pearls are lost at sea
Metaphorical loss of precious possessions in the vast sea of emotions.
And my heart must bend like a rainbow
Comparing the flexibility of the heart to the bending of a rainbow.
Too late, you've come to me
Realization that love has arrived, but it is too late in the speaker's life.
