Hearts Gone Wild
Journey of Hearts: Midnight Choir's Poetic Odyssey
Lyrics
Hotel rooms and airport bars
Reflecting on experiences in hotel rooms and airport bars.
All night poem and sleeper cars ???
Musing about a night of poetic inspiration and sleeper cars, possibly referring to train travel.
Raised a shade, and watched the stars
Opening a window and observing the stars.
As I think of you
Thinking of someone special.
There has never been a night
Expressing the uniqueness of every night.
After I turned out the light
After turning off the light, reminiscing about the past.
I don't dream of all that we've been through
Not forgetting or dreaming of the shared experiences.
But the road goes on
Acknowledging the continuation of the journey.
And the towns roll by
Observing the passing towns along the road.
Sing a song of sixpence
A reference to the nursery rhyme, possibly signifying simplicity and innocence.
Half a glass of rhyme
A metaphorical expression of a small amount of poetic inspiration.
Somewhere up ahead I know
Anticipation of a future moment of joy.
I will see you smile
Imagining the person smiling.
At your rumbling child
Reference to a child, possibly symbolizing innocence and purity.
Whose hearts gone wild (*2)
Repetition of "Hearts gone wild" emphasizing emotional intensity.
5 a.m. in a mid-west town
Describing an early morning scene in the Midwest.
Lukewarm coffee and cold hashbrowns
Depicting a simple breakfast scene with lukewarm coffee and cold hashbrowns.
I bite my tongue and toss it down
Suppressing emotions by biting the tongue.
As the morning sky turns blue
Observing the changing sky as a new day begins.
Hearts roll home like tumbleweeds
Hearts returning home, some flourishing and some fading away.
Some will turn to dust and seed
Metaphor for life's uncertainties and transformations.
Some will find the love they need
Expressing hope for finding love and fulfillment.
I'm coming home to you
Anticipating a return to a loved one.
But the road goes on
Reiterating the ongoing journey.
And the towns roll by
Continuing to witness the passing towns.
Sing a song of sixpence
Recalling the nursery rhyme again for poetic effect.
Half a glass of rhyme
Repetition of the metaphorical half-glass of inspiration.
Somewhere up ahead I know
Reiterating the anticipation of a joyful moment.
I will see you smile
Imagining the anticipated smile of the person.
At your rumbling child
Referring again to the rumbling child, possibly symbolizing emotions.
Whose hearts gone wild (*2)
Repetition of "Hearts gone wild," emphasizing emotional intensity once more.
Somewhere up ahead I know
Reiterating the anticipation of a joyful reunion.
I will see you smile
Imagining the anticipated smile of the person again.
At your rumbling child
Referring once more to the rumbling child and its wild heart.
Whose hearts gone wild (*2)
Repetition of "Hearts gone wild," underscoring emotional intensity for the final time.
