Lyrics
Won't you help me please,
Request for assistance or support
I'm growing old
Expressing a sense of aging or getting older
A million years ago
Referencing a distant past, possibly emphasizing the feeling of a long passage of time
Won't you help me sneeze,
Seeking help for a common ailment (cold)
I've caught a cold
Describing the physical condition of catching a cold
Another way to go
Suggesting an alternative or different path
Just hold on tightly
Encouraging someone to hold on tightly, possibly metaphorical for emotional support
This shows on my breed
Reference to a specific trait or characteristic associated with a particular breed
They speak so very slow
Commenting on the slow pace of communication
It gets so hard to follow
Expressing difficulty in understanding or keeping up
Slowly in the mist of captive eyes
Describing a slow and unclear situation, possibly with a sense of confinement
To carry you from home
Transporting someone away from home, perhaps metaphorically
Hansom cab again from dawn till dusk
Describing a Hansom cab ride, suggesting a continuous journey from dawn till dusk
My power amphibious bride
Reference to a powerful and versatile partner
I'll just leave you here like this
Indicating abandonment or leaving someone behind
I'm sure you won't be missed
Expressing a belief that the absence won't be noticed
Before this night is done
Anticipating a change in perception by the end of the night
These words won't seem so wrong.
Suggesting a reassessment of the spoken words as time passes
Oh it can't be that bad
Downplaying a situation, implying it's not as bad as it seems
Back up in Trinidad
Referencing a location (Trinidad) and a potential return
Come down and see me soon
Inviting someone to visit upon their return
When you get back from the moon.
Referencing a journey to the moon, possibly metaphorical or symbolic
