Lyrics
Oh Emily, I'd love to be
Expresses a desire to be with Emily
Down by the sea with you
Specifically mentions being together by the sea
Having tea with you
Imagining a scenario of having tea together
Walking hand in hand
Describes walking together while holding hands
On the shifting sands
Symbolizes an uncertain foundation or situation
Maybe we'll love again
Expressing hope for a possibility of loving again
Maybe we'll love again
Reiteration of the hope for a renewed love
Soon the time will come
Anticipating a future event or circumstance
When we must say
Foreseeing a forthcoming goodbye
Goodbye my dear dear friend
Bidding farewell to Emily, emphasizing closeness
Till we meet again
Expressing a hope to reunite in the future
Though I'm far away
Despite physical distance, still feeling connected emotionally
I'll still hear you say
Recalling the imagined words or sentiments from Emily
Maybe we'll love again
Reiterating the hope for a potential future love
Maybe we'll love again
Repetition of the longing for love to return
Hold my hand
Requesting physical closeness and support
On the sand
Describing a specific location for the support
And say once more
Requesting a reaffirmation of past sentiments or words
Like before
Highlighting the desire for a repeated expression of love
Maybe we'll love again
Hopeful repetition of the possibility of future love
Maybe we'll love again
Reiterating the desire for a renewed love
Maybe we'll love again
Final expression of hope for a future love
