Lyrics

Whoa, my love

Expressing a strong emotion, possibly awe or admiration.

My darling

Endearing term for a loved one.

I've hungered for your touch

Longing for physical contact with the loved one.

A long, lonely time

Describing a prolonged period of solitude and yearning.


And time goes by so slowly

Perception of time passing very slowly.

And time can do so much

Recognition of the significant impact time can have.

Are you still mine?

Possessive question about the status of the relationship.


I need your love

Declaration of a deep need for love.

I need your love

Reiteration of the intense need for love.

God speed your love to me

A wish for the quick arrival of the loved one's love.


Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea

Metaphorically describing loneliness and separation.

To the open arms of the sea

Depicting the destination where loneliness leads.

Lonely rivers sigh, "Wait for me, wait for me

Loneliness pleading to be patient for the reunion.

I'll be coming home, wait for me"

A promise to return home and a request to wait.


Whoa, my love

Reiteration of the emotional exclamation from line 1.

My darling

Repeated endearing term for the loved one.

I've hungered, hungered for your touch

Expressing intense desire for physical contact again.

A long, lonely time

Reiteration of the prolonged loneliness and yearning.


And time goes by so slowly

Repeating the perception of time passing slowly.

And time can do so much

Repeating the recognition of time's significant impact.

Are you still mine?

Repeating the possessive question about the relationship.


I need your love

Repeating the declaration of a deep need for love.

I need your love

Repeating the intense need for love.

God speed your love to me

Repeating the wish for the quick arrival of the loved one's love.
