Lyrics
Oh
Expressing a start or realization.
My love and I were thinking
Reflecting on thoughts shared with a loved one.
How low our boat was sinking
Contemplating the sinking state of their relationship.
From fishing for the blues
Using metaphorical "fishing for the blues" to denote seeking solutions.
Every lure we tried
Various attempts to improve their situation.
Jonesey turned the tide
A reference to someone named Jonesey turning the tide, possibly a helper or guide.
We lost our cool
Experiencing frustration or losing composure.
Caught in whirlpools
Metaphorically caught in challenging circumstances or conflicts.
Oh
Continuation of the reflection on their condition.
So bland was our condition
Describing their situation as uninteresting or dull.
We summoned black magicians
Turning to unconventional means, possibly magic, to address their issues.
To wave a wand or two
Using a magical wand as a symbol of seeking supernatural help.
Talismanic spells
Referring to magical protective objects or charms.
Tannis root and well
Specifically mentioning Tannis root, associated with mysticism.
To tell the tale
Expecting the magic to narrate their story or solve their problems.
Their magic failed
Expressing disappointment as the magical intervention fails.
If that is all you want
Questioning the purpose or desire of the listener.
(Doctor Marvello)
Introducing Doctor Marvello as a potential solution provider.
Then I may be of service
Offering assistance if the listener seeks what Doctor Marvello can provide.
If all you want is love
Highlighting love as a potential desire.
(Doctor Marvello)
Reiterating Doctor Marvello's ability to help with love.
Well I may know a special man
Suggesting a person with a love machine capable of transforming challenges.
Whose love machine turns can't to can
Emphasizing the transformative power of love.
With your mind in mind
Highlighting the importance of mental alignment for the transformation.
With your mind in mind
-(A passage of time)
Introducing a passage of time, possibly indicating a shift or change.
Oh
Continuing the narrative after a temporal shift.
The trance wore off by morning
Describing the end of a trance or magical state.
A sentimental journey was hazily recalled
Recalling a sentimental journey, perhaps referring to their experience with magic.
Though it sounds absurd
Acknowledging the absurdity of their cured state.
We're completely cured
Claiming complete healing or resolution of their issues.
And now we're fine
Repeating the affirmation of their well-being.
And now we're fine
-And now we're fine
-My love and I
Closing the narrative by mentioning the narrator and their love.
