She is My Escape
Love's Triumph: Finding Hope and Escape in John Smith's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
The crowd at the gate is hanging on late
The people waiting at the entrance are staying there for a long time.
Like posters from some lost campaign
They resemble forgotten posters from an old political campaign.
Suits loose and frayed, their hats blown away
People wearing worn-out suits, with their hats blown away by the wind.
Sails catching nothing but rain
Metaphorically, their efforts are futile, like sails catching rain and not wind.
I stand with a rope tied firm to the hope
The singer holds onto hope firmly, symbolized by a rope.
That we'll leave a good night where it fell
Desiring to end the day positively.
And that light bursting free is coming for me
Hopeful for personal liberation represented by light breaking free.
Let's love and let's do loving well.
An urging to love deeply and authentically.
Now I woke in a cloud after speaking aloud
The singer awakens disoriented after expressing feelings aloud.
To a vision of you in the street
Having a vision of the person they love in the street.
Back in my room, the heat in full bloom
The room is intensely warm, symbolizing emotional intensity.
I see lilies grow wild at my feet
Observing the unexpected growth of lilies, symbolizing purity.
And so down the line I'll keep your heart in mine
Pledging to keep the loved one's heart close.
And our lungs ring an hourly bell
Both individuals breathe together as a metaphor for shared experiences.
It's as clear as the moon as it follows and
Comparing the clarity of their connection to the clarity of the moon.
Taps on my shoulder I'm under her spell.
Feeling enchanted or captivated by the loved one's presence.
Out here in the night where I once lost the fight
Reflecting on a past failure and the loss of hope.
And abandoned all hope for a home
Previously giving up on finding a place to belong.
I seek out her shape, you know she is my escape
Seeing the loved one as an escape from difficulties.
And I'll follow wherever she goes
Willingness to follow the loved one anywhere.
The hinge of her door well it groans and it roars
The door creaks loudly, representing obstacles in the relationship.
And what stands between us like a veil
Obstacles like fear and doubt hinder their connection.
Is my fear and my doubt, but I turn and sing
Despite obstacles, the singer still expresses a desire for love.
Darling, let's love and let's do loving well.
A reaffirmation of the desire to love deeply and genuinely.
