Lyrics
And when it comes right down to it
Reflection on the essential aloneness in life.
We're really all alone
Emphasizing the inherent isolation unless we choose otherwise.
Unless we want someone to own
Highlighting the choice to allow someone to control and shape our lives.
And run the life we live, oh me
Acknowledging the potential impact of someone else running one's life.
To write a lonely night into a poem
Expressing a desire to transform a lonely night into a meaningful piece of art.
Weave me a summer flight into a music
Requesting the creation of a joyful experience through music.
That I've loved and haven't known
Yearning for the familiarity and warmth of a loved but unknown music.
Weave me a summer night into a winter fire
Seeking comfort in memories of summer during a cold winter.
For I'm very far from warm
Feeling distant and in need of warmth.
And when it comes right down to it
Reiterating the idea of contentment in solitude.
I'm happily alone
Finding happiness in being alone and self-sufficient.
'Cause I don't want someone to own
Rejecting the idea of being possessed or controlled by someone else.
And run the life I live, oh me
Reemphasizing the aversion to relinquishing control of one's life.
To walk a night into a day that has no reason
Describing a journey without a clear purpose or motivation.
Walking past the house of someone else's season
Passing through the experiences of others without attachment.
Gazing at the light on the rim of a tightly closed door
Observing a source of light near an inaccessible closed door.
Weave me inside before the winter and I wouldn't ask for more
Expressing a desire to be included in warmth before winter arrives.
And when it comes right down to it
Reaffirming the fundamental aloneness in life.
We're really quite alone
Stating the solitude unless actively seeking connection.
Unless we want someone to own
Reiterating the choice to allow someone to influence and direct life.
And run the life we live
Underlining the impact of letting others run one's life.
And when it comes right down to it
Reflecting on the inherent isolation in life.
We're really quite alone
Reiterating the aloneness unless actively seeking companionship.
Unless we want someone to own
Emphasizing the choice to allow someone to shape and control one's life.
And run the life we live
Highlighting the impact of allowing others to run one's life.
