Fair
Dreams Across the Water: Unveiling the Meaning of Monica Heldal's 'Fair'
Lyrics
In December and you wait for more
Anticipation in December, expecting more.
When the lights are low the spirit grows
In a subdued atmosphere, emotions intensify.
You tell her you should know for sure
Expressing the need for certainty in a relationship.
And they are working on your honesty
Others are evaluating your sincerity and integrity.
Come on over the water
An invitation to come across the water, potentially metaphorical.
Last night I dreamt of a day at the fair and
Recalling a dream of a joyous day at the fair.
the old folk were dancing white smoke in the air
The elderly dancing, with an image of white smoke in the air.
I met you across the water
A meeting across the water, suggesting separation.
I met you across the water
Repetition for emphasis on the significant encounter.
And make sure it's all you want to know
Advising to confirm if you genuinely want to know everything.
She's looking for to be with you for long
A woman seeking a long-term connection with you.
And after clean your hands some more
Afterwards, cleanse yourself, possibly metaphorical.
Somewhere back in time is what you see is what you'll find
Reflecting on the past, what you perceive is what you'll discover.
Come on over the water
Reiteration of the invitation to come over the water.
Last night I dreamt of a day at the fair and
Revisiting the dream of a festive day at the fair.
the old ones were dancing white smoke in the air
The elderly dancing, with white smoke in the air, repeated imagery.
I met you across the water
Reiteration of meeting someone across the water.
I met you across the water
Repetition for emphasis on the significant encounter.
