Lyrics
And I waited by the water
Anticipation and patience near a body of water.
For the reeds to calm me down
Seeking solace from the calming effect of reeds.
And you called me in the morning time
Receiving a call in the morning, possibly bringing emotional warmth.
When your hands were as cold as mine
Connecting with someone during a vulnerable moment (cold hands).
While we waited for the dust to come along
Waiting for something uncertain (dust) and receiving an awkward smile.
You gave me an awkward smile instead
An uncomfortable but shared moment with a subtle expression.
I was dreaming of the weirdest things
Engaging in dreams, possibly surreal or imaginative.
Let my brittle frame fall
Expressing a desire or acceptance for personal transformation or change.
Let this brittle frame fall
-Let my brittle frame fall
-Let this brittle frame fall
-And then we drove by pebbles, one by one
Driving past obstacles (pebbles) in search of progress.
In the hope to find a stepping stone
Hopeful pursuit of a stepping stone for stability.
Could have stayed another day or two
Considering staying longer but witnessing a personal breakdown.
And watched this brittle frame fall
Observing and accepting the gradual breakdown of oneself.
Watched this brittle frame fall
-Watched this brittle frame fall
-And I waited by the window
Waiting again, this time by a window, seeking calmness in vain.
But these streets wouldn't calm me down
Streets failing to provide the expected solace.
And you called me in the midst of it all
Receiving a call amidst challenges.
And my brittle frame fall
Experiencing a personal breakdown as expressed by the brittle frame falling.
Let my brittle frame fall
