Not Much Else
Journey Through Life's Echoes: Not Much Else by Laura's Invention
Lyrics
I get on my way at 7:30 every day. Not much else to say
I start my day at 7:30 every day. There's not much else noteworthy to mention.
It's a short highway. Seems busier every day. Not much else to say
Referring to a short and increasingly busy highway. Again, not much else to talk about.
You've got these eyes I want to call divine. I want to call them mine
The singer finds the listener's eyes special and almost divine, expressing a desire to claim them.
You take what you get. I think life is what's left with weekends for the blessed
Suggesting a philosophy of accepting what life offers, with weekends being the time for the blessed.
Sometimes I stumble, walk or crawl. You scream you want to have it all
Describing moments of difficulty (stumbling, walking, or crawling) while someone else expresses a desire for everything.
When you dig something you can't take. Sometimes there's not much else to say
Acknowledging the impossibility of possessing certain things. Sometimes, words are insufficient.
We've all had dreams. We've all had schemes. We've screamed silent screams
Universal experiences of having dreams, schemes, and silent struggles.
The folly of chance. Dance the everyman dance. I hope you didn't have plans
Highlighting the unpredictability of life (folly of chance) and encouraging a dance in the face of uncertainty.
Sometimes I stumble, walk or crawl. You scream you want to have it all
Reiteration of facing challenges while someone else craves everything.
Then you dig something you can't take. Sometimes there's not much else to say
Re-emphasizing the difficulty of obtaining certain desires and the limitation of words in such situations.
And I know something about this. There's not much to go around. You want to share it
Speaking from experience about scarcity, expressing a willingness to share what little there is.
And I know when I look into those marvelous eyes there's so little I have to offer
Reflecting on the singer's own limitations when gazing into the listener's remarkable eyes.
I want more to give you. I want something more than this
Expressing a desire to offer more and yearning for something beyond the current situation.
I want something more than this
Reiteration of the desire for something more profound and meaningful.
I feel the stumble, feel the fall. Feel the crumble, feel the call
Describing the experience of stumbling, falling, crumbling, and feeling a call.
Sometimes there's nothing left to take
Acknowledging moments when there is nothing left to acquire or take.
Sometimes there's not much else to say
Concluding with the acknowledgment that sometimes words are inadequate to express the situation.
