That Special Glow
Capturing Moments: The Enchanting Glow of Love in 'That Special Glow'
Lyrics
Take me back again to years gone by
Expressing a desire to revisit the past.
That special glow about your eye
Describing a special and affectionate look in the person's eyes.
On a night when crickets drown out passing cars
Setting the scene of a tranquil night with crickets' sounds dominating.
And you and I had gone a bit too far
Recalling a moment when the speaker and the person they are addressing crossed certain boundaries.
When I found your hand and you found that mine was restless, soft and warm
Describing the tactile connection between the speaker and the person.
When you found my heart and I found that yours was slowly taking form
Highlighting the mutual discovery of each other's emotions and feelings taking shape.
All those endless possibilities
Reflecting on numerous potential outcomes.
Melted feelings born to freeze
Expressing emotions that were initially warm but eventually became cold.
That slipped upon the icy tired good-byes
Describing a moment of parting or separation that was inevitable.
When you had that special glow about your eyes
Recalling a specific time when the person had a distinctive, special glow in their eyes.
Come lie beside me
Inviting the person to lie beside the speaker.
There is nothing in this night light quite as fair
Emphasizing the unique beauty of the night.
If you'd just guide me
Asking for guidance despite feeling scared.
Though I'm scared to death, every breath is yours to share
Expressing a willingness to share every breath with the person.
I will be there
Reiterating a commitment to be there for the person.
Let the future play out in the sky
Suggesting a desire to let the future unfold naturally.
Like a drive in movie Mid-July
Comparing the unfolding future to a drive-in movie in mid-July.
And watch the simple dream that held us tight
Reflecting on a simple dream that held the speaker and the person tightly together.
As we dared to kiss goodnight
Recalling a daring kiss goodnight.
When I found your soul, and you found that mine was restless, wild and cold
Describing the restless and contrasting nature of the person's soul.
When you found my kiss, and I found I'd missed the chance to be that bold
Recalling a missed opportunity for a bold kiss.
In that endless lusty "might have shared"
Describing a moment of intense desire that might have been shared.
Moment when our hearts were bared
Highlighting a moment of vulnerability when hearts were laid bare.
And wore transparent clothes as their disguise
Metaphorically describing hearts wearing transparent clothes as a disguise.
You had that special glow about your eyes
Recalling another instance when the person had a special glow in their eyes.
Come lie beside me
Repeating the invitation for the person to lie beside the speaker.
There is nothing in this night light quite as fair
Reiterating the unique beauty of the night.
If you'd just guide me
Repeating the request for guidance despite fear.
Though I'm scared to death, every breath is yours to share
Reaffirming a willingness to share every breath with the person.
I will be there
Reiterating the commitment to be there for the person.
