Invite Me To Your Country
Yearning for Uncharted Lands
Lyrics
I’d mount a cloud and escape
I desire to escape, even to the extent of mounting a cloud.
Just to see the way your moon is shaped
I want to witness the unique shape of your moon.
May I ask you dearly
Politely seeking permission to inquire.
Has true friendliness survived over there?
Asking if genuine friendliness still exists in that place.
Invite me to your country
Expressing a desire to be invited to the other person's country.
What does it look like? How
Curiosity about the appearance of the country.
Do the fir trees smell?
Asking about the scent of fir trees.
Invite me to your country
Reiterating the request for an invitation to the country.
Is the trees, are the oaks doing well?
Inquiring about the well-being of trees, specifically oaks.
Invite me today would it be awkward if I
Wondering if expressing a desire to stay would be uncomfortable.
Said I’d like to stay?
Expressing a willingness to extend the visit.
I’d build a boat and sail
Expressing a willingness to make an effort, even building a boat to reach the other person.
Just to feel your rain on my hair
Desiring to feel the rain in the other person's country.
Leave my illusions to me
Preferring to keep personal fantasies and dreams.
Say some sensitives survived over there
Suggesting that sensitive individuals might have survived in the other person's country.
Invite me to your country
Reiterating the request for an invitation based on caring.
Just because I know that you care
Stating that the request is because of a genuine sense of care.
Times are fast and unsafe
Commenting on the fast and unsafe nature of current times.
And my melodies ever so grey
Describing personal melodies as melancholic or uninspiring.
Invite me to your country
Reiterating the desire for an invitation to the other person's country.
Just to talk to you once again
Expressing a desire to have a conversation with the person once again.
