Hushaby
Embracing Love's Whispers: Lou Doillon's Hushaby Tale
Lyrics
Take my hand,
Invitation to accompany the speaker
We'll travel around and around,
Metaphorical journey together
And you don't have to,
Assurance of not needing words
Say a thing, just listen to me darling,
Request to listen without speaking
Close your eyes,
Encouragement to shut eyes
I'm here yes right by your side,
Promise of physical presence
And I'll catch you if you fall,
Commitment to support and prevent harm
I'll take care of it all,
Promise to take care of everything
For you boy, this hushaby,
Reference to a lullaby-like care
Let me drive,
Desire to lead or take control
I long to take you for a ride,
Wish to take the person on an adventure
And you taught me how,
Acknowledgment of past guidance
But it's my turn it's my turn now,
Expressing readiness to take charge now
Keep your smile,
Encouragement to maintain happiness
You'll be out of this mess in a while,
Assurance of overcoming difficulties soon
And I'll take care of it all,
Reiteration of commitment to handle things
I'll catch you if you fall,
Pledge to provide assistance if needed
For you boy, this hushaby
Continued reference to caring for the person
Take my hand,
Repetition of the invitation to support
And please don't hide, when you're down,
Request to not conceal emotions
Close your eyes,
Encouragement to close eyes again
I'm here yes just by your side,
Reassurance of continued presence
And I'll take care of it all,
Reiteration of commitment to handle issues
I'll catch you if you fall,
Promise to offer aid if the person stumbles
For you boy, this hushaby
Final emphasis on providing comfort and care
