Rekindling Love: Morten Harket's Emotional Return to the City of Angels
Lyrics
You waited for me
You patiently waited for my return
When I was strong
During a time when I was emotionally robust or resilient
You never called
You didn't contact me during that period
You waited long
Your waiting endured for a considerable length of time
Now I come back
Now, I am coming back
To sleep with you
To share intimacy with you
You love me still
Your affection for me persists
I love you, too
I reciprocate the love
You kept the house
You maintained the household, which I couldn't sustain
I could not keep
I lost possession or control of the house
You kissed good night
You gave a goodnight kiss and went to sleep
And went to sleep
Expressing a moment of departure
Now I come back
I return to be with you
To sleep with you
To share intimacy once again
You love me still
Your love for me endures
I love you, too
I also still love you
Come with me
Inviting to go together
To that room by the sea
To a room with a view of the moon and Los Angeles
With a view of the moon and
Describing the location
Los Angeles
Mentioning the city
You're beautiful back then
Reflecting on your beauty in the past
God, you're beautiful now
Emphasizing your beauty in the present
Come with me
Reiterating the invitation to come along
Yeah, I was strong
Recalling a time when I was strong
I had no choice
Indicating a lack of alternatives or options
The kids grew up
Children grew up and moved out
And left the house
Empty nest situation
But I come back
I return again for intimacy
To sleep with you
Your love remains steadfast
You love me still
I continue to love you
I love you, too
Repeating the affirmation of love
Come with me
Reinviting to the room by the sea
To that room by the sea
Reiterating the destination
