Lyrics
On the river bank
Being near the river
I'll close my eyes
Intending to close one's eyes
My love, don't hold me down
Requesting not to restrict love
We're closer than before
Expressing increased closeness
The wind gently blows
Describing a gentle wind
And I'm so exposed
Feeling vulnerable
I can't save my mind
Unable to prevent mental immersion
From sinking in soft calls
Facing emotional vulnerability
Got nothing left
Having no emotional reserves
To throw overboard
Nothing left to discard
Laying side by side
Lying close together
Pretending
Pretending or putting up a facade
We are pretending it's all alright
Pretending everything is okay
You stretch your arms and our fingers touch
Physical closeness, fingers touching
For hours we stay still
Extended moments of stillness
Drowning in a dream
Feeling overwhelmed in a dreamlike state
I can't save my mind
Struggling to protect the mind emotionally
From sinking in soft calls
Confronting emotional vulnerability
Got nothing left
Depleted emotional resources
To throw overboard
Nothing left to discard emotionally
Let me hear your voice
Desiring to hear a loved one's voice
Your tales of the world
Listened to tales of the world, possibly whimsical
Of foxes and dolls
Mentions of foxes and dolls, potentially metaphorical
Let me be all yours
Expressing a desire for complete belonging
I'm so exposed
Feeling exposed emotionally
Drowning in a dream
Overwhelmed in a dreamlike state
I can't save my mind
Struggling to protect the mind emotionally
From sinking in soft calls
Confronting emotional vulnerability
Got nothing left
Depleted emotional resources
To throw overboard
Nothing left to discard emotionally
