Til It Thunders
Love's Echo: Holding On Until Thunder Strikes
Lyrics
I buy things when you're gone.
I make purchases in your absence.
To fill up space and hang on walls.
I acquire things to decorate and occupy space on walls.
Cause my voice rings too loud in these empty halls.
My own voice sounds too prominent in the emptiness of these halls.
I buy things when your gone.
I continue buying things when you are not present.
I play our song when I'm alone.
I play our special song when I'm by myself.
And shift my feet on every note.
I move my feet with each musical note, reminiscing our inability to dance well.
We don't dance to well, if we could we'd dance slow.
We are not proficient dancers, but if we could, we would dance slowly.
If we could dance, we'd dance slow.
If given the chance to dance, we would choose a slow dance.
Darlin I must confess, the flowers on your dress,
I admit, the floral pattern on your dress has captivated me.
have got a hold on me.
Expressing the charm the flowers on your dress have over me.
And when all of our friends, have grown up and left,
As our friends mature and depart, hold on to me.
baby hold on me.
Emphasizing the need to hold on to each other as time progresses.
Cause we got some time and I've got your finger,
We have time, and I am holding onto your finger.
and I wont let go til it thunders.
I promise not to let go until there's thunder, symbolizing enduring commitment.
You can't put your dreams on hold.
You shouldn't delay your dreams.
Take it from a man who knows.
Advice from someone who understands the consequences of postponing dreams.
But you say you're moving out, you're moving down to the coast, cause you can't put your dreams on hold.
You plan to move to the coast, prioritizing your dreams over the current situation.
Darlin I must confess, the flowers on your dress,
The flowers on your dress still have a powerful impact on me.
have got a hold on me.
Anticipating belief and commitment when we outgrow our current circumstances.
And when we've outgrown these threads, grown up and left Baby I'll believe.
When we mature and move on from our current state, I'll believe in our connection.
Cause we""ve got some time and I've got your finger
We have time, and I am holding onto your finger.
And I wont let go til it thunders.
Reiterating the commitment to hold on until a significant event (thunder) occurs.
Darlin I must confess, the flowers on your dress,
The flowers on your dress continue to have a strong influence on me.
have got a hold on me.
Expressing the enduring impact of the floral pattern despite the passage of time.
And when all of our friends, have grown up and left,
As our friends grow and depart, hold on to me.
baby hold on me.
Emphasizing the need for emotional support as friends move on.
Cause we got some time and I've got your finger,
We have time, and I am holding onto your finger.
and I wont let go til it thunders.
Committing to hold on until a significant event, using thunder as a metaphor.
