Balcony
Elevated Reflections: Jude Smith's Balcony Serenade Revealed
Lyrics
Sitting up here on a balcony
Sitting on a balcony, observing the surroundings.
Watching the people down below
Observing people below from the elevated position.
I watch them go
Continuing to watch people and their activities.
Oh they're moving so slow
Noting that the people's movements seem slow or relaxed.
I can see it all so clearly
Having a clear and comprehensive view from the balcony.
Yea yea, yea
Repeating the affirmation of the clarity from the balcony.
Sitting up here on a balcony
Reiterating the act of sitting on the balcony.
Mmm, these seven little birds came to see me
Seven birds symbolically approaching for a purpose.
And to set me free
These birds intended to bring freedom.
But they couldn't carry me, no
Despite their efforts, the birds couldn't provide liberation.
That's why I'm here still on this balcony
Explaining the reason for remaining on the balcony.
Just playing up here still on this balcony, yea
Indicating an ongoing playful or creative activity on the balcony.
Well I can see the skies
Expressing the ability to see the sky from a great height.
When I'm fifteen stories high
Specifically, at a height of fifteen stories.
Oh now I can see the skies
Repeating the realization of seeing the sky clearly.
Sitting up here watching everything
Continuing to observe everything from the balcony.
Cars the size of a star on a Christmas tree
Comparing cars to stars on a Christmas tree, emphasizing their size.
And they're flying free
Highlighting the freedom of movement for the cars.
They've got somewhere to be
Suggesting that the cars have a purpose or destination.
And I'm just here still on this balcony
Reiterating the continued presence on the balcony.
Just playing up here up on this balcony, yea
Reaffirming the ongoing playful or creative activity.
Oh now I can see the skies
Repeating the ability to see the sky at a great height.
When I'm fifteen stories high
Reiterating the specific height of fifteen stories.
Oh now I can see the skies
Emphasizing the continued clear view of the sky.
From way up here up on this balcony
Observing the surroundings from the elevated position.
From way up here up on this balcony
Repeating the act of being up on the balcony.
From way up here up on this balcony
Reiterating the elevated position on the balcony.
Oh, from way up here up on this balcony
Concluding the perspective from the elevated balcony.
