Speak Low
Whispers of Love: Unveiling the Poignant Tale in 'Speak Low'
Lyrics
Speak low when you speak, love,
Speak softly and with restraint when expressing affection.
Our summer day withers away
Our enjoyable time together is coming to an end.
Too soon, too soon.
It's ending prematurely or before we want it to.
Speak low when you speak, love,
Continue to express affection calmly and quietly.
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift,
Our time together is passing swiftly and aimlessly like drifting ships.
We're swept apart too soon.
We are being separated unexpectedly or prematurely.
Speak low, darling speak low,
Keep the expressions of love restrained and quiet.
Love is a spark lost in the dark,
Love often fades away in darkness or difficult times.
Too soon, too soon,
Love ends prematurely, causing a sense of regret.
I feel wherever I go
The feeling of being followed by the impending arrival of the future.
That tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here
The sense that the future (tomorrow) is approaching rapidly or already here.
And always too soon.
The future always arrives earlier than desired.
Time is so old and love so brief,
Time has existed for a long while, but love feels fleeting and short.
Love is pure gold and time a thief.
Love is valuable and pure, while time takes away from it.
We're late darling, we're late,
We're delayed in acknowledging or expressing our feelings.
The curtain descends, ev'rything ends
Everything comes to an end as life's final act (metaphorically, the curtain falls).
Too soon, too soon,
Things conclude earlier than expected or wanted.
I wait darling, I wait
There's a sense of anticipation or longing for affection expressed quietly.
Will you speak low to me,
Asking for whispered declarations of affection.
Speak love to me and soon.
Requesting for expressions of love communicated quietly and promptly.
