Here's the Thing
Contemplating Eternal Love: "Here's the Thing" by Pat Parker
Lyrics
Here's the thing
Expressing the commencement of a discussion or revelation.
I'm starting to wonder if we ever dream
Raising the question about the possibility of having dreams.
Of anything other than eternity
Contemplating whether dreams extend beyond the concept of eternity.
Just you and me on the line
Describing a connection or relationship between the speaker and someone else, emphasizing intimacy.
And I believe
Expressing a belief in love as the sole potentiality.
Love is the only possibility
Believing that love is the only conceivable option, possibly transcending time and space.
Staring back into infinity
Referring to the vastness of time or existence, suggesting a deep contemplation of love.
Just you and me in my mind
Highlighting the significance of the connection in the speaker's thoughts.
And I'm starting to wonder
Expressing a sense of curiosity or doubt about the nature of their existence or relationship.
If we ever stumble upon
Questioning whether they will accidentally discover the purpose or meaning of their actions.
What it is we're doing here
Pondering the purpose or reason for being in a particular situation.
So if you're undercover
Suggesting a potential hidden aspect or undisclosed intentions.
With some new found lover
Acknowledging the possibility of the partner having a new romantic interest.
Then just hold on tight my dear
Advising the partner to hold on tightly in the face of challenges or uncertainties.
Cause here's the thing
Reiterating the commencement of a discussion or revelation.
I'm starting to wonder if we ever dream
Repeating the question about the potential existence of dreams.
Of anything other than eternity
Reiterating the contemplation of dreams extending beyond eternity.
Just you and me on the line
Reiterating the emphasis on the connection between the speaker and the partner.
And after all
Acknowledging that certain circumstances are beyond the partner's control.
It's not your fault
Expressing a lack of ability to comprehend or understand something.
That I can't hear
Implying a challenge in communication or understanding due to external factors.
So in the end
Conveying that, ultimately, there is an additional year or time available.
We've always got
Suggesting the presence of an enduring option or solution.
One more year
Emphasizing the availability of another year or opportunity.
Cause here's the thing
Reiterating the commencement of a discussion or revelation.
I'm starting to wonder if we ever dream
Repeating the question about the potential existence of dreams.
Of anything other than eternity
Reiterating the contemplation of dreams extending beyond eternity.
Just you and me on the line
Reiterating the emphasis on the connection between the speaker and the partner.
