The Kiss
Embracing Love's Mystery: Jon Anderson's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
How you gonna live through the dreams that you think about
Contemplating how to navigate and live through one's dreams.
How you gonna leave them behind?
Questioning the difficulty of leaving behind those dreams.
And how you gonna search for the things that will help you
Exploring the search for elements that support and guide in life.
Through the end of time?
Contemplating how to persist through challenges until the end of time.
All you need to think of is hope and the good in love
Emphasizing the importance of hope and the positive aspects of love.
And all that surrounds seems to hustle and bustle you
Noting the distractions and chaos surrounding, urging to focus on positivity.
When you need to stay by my side
Expressing the need for companionship during challenging times.
In this time of life
Acknowledging the present period in one's life.
How you gonna know if it's love in a modern way
Pondering how to recognize love in a contemporary context.
How you gonna reach the high you need?
Questioning the means to attain emotional highs.
How we gonna dream about the many things we think about
Contemplating the process of dreaming about various things.
How we gonna let it be?
Wondering how to allow things to unfold naturally.
Oh! but I know you are mine
Asserting a strong connection and possession of the other person.
And it's almost divine
Highlighting the almost divine nature of the connection.
How we find ourselves
Reflecting on finding oneself and the questions that arise.
We ask ourselves
Posing introspective questions about the nature of existence.
Do stars shine?
Raising a question about the brilliance of stars.
So it's love more or less
Considering the nuances of love, more or less.
A special thing, to be true
Describing love as a special and true thing.
How you gonna feel it when you cannot live it
Contemplating the emotional challenge of feeling something unattainable.
How you gonna kiss the one you need?
Questioning the means to express love through a kiss.
How you gonna reach for the dreams that you think about
Pondering how to pursue dreams that occupy one's thoughts.
How you gonna let it be?
Contemplating the act of letting things be and unfold naturally.
Oh! but I know this is right
Expressing confidence in the correctness of the situation or relationship.
We kiss in a special way
Describing a unique and special way of kissing.
I think about it every night
Revealing the frequency of thoughts about a special person.
Think about you every day
Expressing constant thoughts about the person every day.
Love more or less
Returning to the theme of love, contemplating its varying intensity.
And I don't even know where to begin
Expressing uncertainty about where to start in the complexity of love.
