Circles in the sand
Eternal Echoes: Michael Baker's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Oh come down
Expression of invitation or plea to come down.
See me again my friend
Request to be seen again, emphasizing friendship.
For its been a long time
Noting the passage of a significant amount of time.
And I'm in this one deep
Deep emotional involvement or difficulty in a situation.
Pour the wine
Introduction of a symbolic act - pouring wine.
I speak of losing diamonds once again
Talking about experiencing loss, particularly of valuable things.
Oh my friend yeh its been a long time
Reiteration of the long time since the last meeting with a friend.
But my story remains the same
Stating that the core of the story or personal narrative remains unchanged.
But in truth I know not why I am so sad
Expressing a sense of sadness without clear understanding.
Or why I been drawing circles in the sand
Confusion or contemplation about the repetitive act of drawing circles in the sand.
I still dance the flames off a picture frame
Metaphorical description of dancing near danger or difficulty.
By the fire I feel no pain
Experiencing relief or comfort by the fire, escaping pain.
People come and people go
Reflection on the transient nature of relationships.
They give me reasons for believing in life sure
Receiving reasons from others to believe in life.
Today im not here for the headline
Expressing disinterest in seeking attention or being in the spotlight.
Id rather sit back row
Preference for a more passive or reserved role in a situation.
But in truth I know not why I am so sad
Reiteration of the unexplained sadness and circle-drawing.
Or why I been circles in the sand
Continued contemplation on the mysterious sadness and circles in the sand.
But in truth I know not why I am so sad
Reiteration of the unexplained sadness and circle-drawing.
Or why I been circles in the sand
Continued contemplation on the mysterious sadness and circles in the sand.
Been drawing circles in the sand
Actively engaging in the repetitive act of drawing circles in the sand.
Oh in the sand
Repetition of the act happening specifically in the sand.
Been drawing circles in the sand
-But I can make it better for you now
Offering to improve the situation for the other person.
But what goes around in my life my love
Reflection on the cyclical nature of life events, possibly implying karma.
It comes around
Reinforcement of the cyclical nature of life events.
