Waltz On Robson
A Symphony of Dreams on Robson Street
Lyrics
Here on the 18th floor in the sky
Describing a location on the 18th floor with a sky view.
The people look small as the world goes by
Observing people below appearing small as the world moves.
You just arrived now you're itching to go
Noting someone's recent arrival and eagerness to leave.
But up in the office the world moves slow
Highlighting the slow pace of the corporate world.
You always wanted to live out this dream
Expressing a desire to live a dream involving coffee, money, and leadership.
Drinking coffee, making money, and leading the team
Emphasizing the anticipation of the dream.
But anticipation, oh what could be worse?
Questioning the difficulty of anticipation.
Giving so much and not knowing your worth
Reflecting on the challenge of giving without recognizing one's own value.
What if you walked out to the blue
Contemplating the possibility of leaving the current situation.
And into the street
Visualizing walking into the unknown, represented by "the blue."
By chance you should meet
Imagining a chance encounter with someone similar.
Someone like you
Describing the potential for meeting someone in need of a break.
Who needs a break too
Highlighting the shared desire for a break.
With a waltz on Robson Street
Suggesting a specific location for this break, Robson Street, with a waltz.
Working the late night shift on your own
Describing working late and being alone.
Thoughts of your kids who just wish you were home
Thinking about family and the wish for being at home.
When the sun rises you'll kiss their sweet heads
Anticipating a routine of caring for and kissing the children when the sun rises.
Drive them to school and then fall to your bed
Depicting a routine of driving children to school and then resting.
When the moon rises you'll do it again
Describing a repetitive cycle of caring for children and helping others.
Care for your children and help others to mend
Noting the constant responsibilities and the need for self-care.
So many people and so much to do
Highlighting the multitude of people and tasks.
Giving so much, who's caring for you?
Reiterating the theme of giving without considering personal well-being.
What if you walked out to the blue
Revisiting the idea of leaving the current situation.
And into the street
Repeating the concept of walking into the unknown.
By chance you should meet
Reiterating the chance encounter and potential connection.
Someone like you
Stressing the shared need for a break and connection.
Who needs a break too
Expressing the desire for a break on Robson Street with a waltz.
With a waltz on Robson Street
(Blank line, potentially indicating the end of the song or a reflective pause.)
