Lullaby From A Distant Planet
Exploring Nighttime Realms: Lullaby From A Distant Planet
Lyrics
Does the world come alive in the night time?
Questioning if the world becomes more vibrant and alive during the night.
I observe from a distant planet
The singer is observing Earth from a distant planet.
When the Earth turns away from the light side
Noting that the perspective is during the night when the Earth is in darkness.
From where I am I can't see what happens
Expressing limitation in visibility from the singer's distant vantage point.
What I know about the half in the night time
Referencing knowledge about activities or events during the night.
They revolve back again and come to
Suggesting a cyclical nature where things return after revolving or occurring.
And I can see that they're alive in the day time
Observing that entities on Earth appear alive during the day.
So in the night they have to be too
Inferring that life must continue during the night as well.
When I think of the lights in the night time
Reflecting on lights and their significance during the night.
Close my eyes and yearn for what I imagine
Imagining and yearning for experiences related to the night lights.
Does it glow with a million night lights?
Pondering if the night is illuminated with numerous lights.
As the dark covers the sky like a blanket
Describing the dark sky covering the Earth like a blanket.
Open my eyes to the Earth let me fly
Expressing a desire to explore the Earth by flying.
Don't be scared little flower come too
Encouraging a timid entity (possibly a flower) to join the singer in exploration.
Why oh why must you want to stay behind
Questioning why someone or something would choose to stay behind.
Oh I cried on my own as I flew
Revealing personal emotions, possibly loneliness, during the journey.
(Cried on my own)
(Repeated) Reiterating the emotional state of crying alone.
Now and then when the glare of the sun dies
Reflecting on moments when the sun's intensity diminishes.
I can bask in the glow of the moon
Finding solace and enjoyment in the moon's glow during such times.
And somewhere in the stars I can't see from the blue sky
Alluding to a mysterious world among the stars that is not visible from the Earth's blue sky.
There's a world where I might find you
Expressing a hope or possibility of finding someone or something in that distant world.
