Garden Fence
Falling Fast: A Garden Fence of Love in Noel Montenegro's Melody
Lyrics
Her dark brown eyes
Expressing admiration or focus on the physical appearance of her eyes.
See my shaking hands
Describing a state of nervousness or anxiety through trembling hands.
The walls I built
Suggesting the existence of emotional barriers represented by walls.
Were nothing but a garden fence for her
Metaphorically comparing emotional walls to a fragile garden fence, implying vulnerability.
The desert sun
Setting a scene with a desert sun, possibly symbolizing a harsh or challenging environment.
Goes to rest for the night
Describing the sunset, a transition or closure, hinting at an end or change.
But just before
Building anticipation before a moment of observation or revelation.
He catches a glimpse of us below
Witnessing a moment between "us" from the perspective of the sun.
And I'm falling too fast to catch
Expressing a sense of falling quickly and being unable to control the descent.
Oh I pray to God, for this to last
Praying for the current state or relationship to endure.
How I hoped you'd be the one that I would find
Expressing a hope for the person to be a significant other or a special connection.
Lord knows I've got you on my mind
Acknowledging constant thoughts about the person referred to as "you."
Music drowns out
Using music as a metaphor to drown out external distractions or influences.
The noise of people all around
Highlighting the intimacy of being close to each other amid a noisy environment.
We pull each other close
Describing emotional pain or intensity experienced for the person.
And I am in agony for you
Expressing deep emotional distress or yearning for the person.
And I'm falling too fast to catch
Reiterating the feeling of falling uncontrollably.
Oh I pray to God, for this to last
Repeating the prayer for the current state to endure.
How I hoped you'd be the one that I would find
Reiterating the hope for a special connection with the person.
Lord knows I've got you on my mind
Reiterating the constant thoughts about the person.
Does she know
Pondering whether the person is aware of the impact on the speaker's plans.
How her eyes make my plans fall apart
Reflecting on the influence of her eyes on disrupting plans or intentions.
Does she know
Questioning whether she is aware of the emotional effect of her voice on the speaker.
How her voice always seems to move my heart
Highlighting the emotional impact of her voice on the speaker's heart.
Oh I do wish
Expressing a desire for the person to perceive the speaker's perspective.
That she could see as I see her
Expressing a wish for the person to see herself as the speaker sees her.
Maybe then
Suggesting that if she sees herself as the speaker does, her smile will not fade.
That smile would never fade again
Imagining a positive outcome if the person sees her own beauty.
Her dark brown eyes
Repeating the initial description of her eyes and the emotional barriers.
See my shaking hands
Reiterating the physical manifestation of anxiety through shaking hands.
The walls I built were nothing but a garden fence for her
Recalling that the emotional walls were merely a fragile barrier for her.
