Lyrics
I laid my head on her chest,
I sought comfort by resting my head on her chest.
She whispered words into my ear,
She shared intimate words with me, speaking softly into my ear.
My sobs rose less and less,
My cries became less intense and frequent.
As she wiped away my tears.
She wiped away my tears, providing emotional support.
She traced estuaries on my palms,
She traced river-like patterns on my palms.
As she sang her simple song,
While singing a simple song, her voice brought comfort and tranquility.
With her voice soothed and calmed,
Her soothing voice calmed my emotions.
She sheltered me from everyone.
She provided a refuge, protecting me from everyone else.
Her icy breath,
Her cold breath symbolically creates frost on the window pane.
Leaves frost against my window pane,
This icy breath leaves a visual impact, representing emotional coldness.
And suddenly I want to sing,
I feel a sudden urge to express myself through song.
Her summer breeze,
Her gentle breeze in summer invokes a desire for a positive change.
Strokes the weeping willow and,
The breeze touches a weeping willow, symbolizing a transformative experience.
Suddenly I want to live.
I am inspired to embrace life more fully.
She buried me in salty sand,
She metaphorically buried me in the sand, signifying a shared experience.
And we dissolved into the rocks,
We dissolved into the rocks, suggesting unity and permanence.
Above us, cliffs did stand,
Above us, cliffs stood tall, representing challenges overcome together.
They crumbled and we watched,
These cliffs crumbled, and we observed the changes together.
We watched.
We watched this transformation unfold.
Her icy breath,
Similar to line 11, emphasizing the impact of her cold breath.
Leaves frost against the window pane,
The frost on the window pane remains, highlighting enduring emotional coldness.
And suddenly I wish I could sing,
I yearn for the ability to express myself through song.
Her summer breeze,
Her summer breeze symbolizes a desire for positive change and growth.
Strokes the weeping willow and,
The breeze touches the weeping willow, signifying a transformative influence.
Suddenly I wish I could live.
I wish to live more fully, motivated by this transformative experience.
Her icy breath,
Repetition of lines 11 and 24, reinforcing the impact of her cold breath.
Leaves frost against the window pane,
Repetition of line 25, emphasizing enduring emotional coldness.
And suddenly I wish I could sing,
Reiteration of the desire to express oneself through song.
Her summer breeze,
Reiteration of the desire for positive change and growth through her summer breeze.
Strokes the weeping willow and,
Reiteration of the transformative influence on the weeping willow.
Suddenly I wish I could live.
Reiteration of the wish to live more fully, driven by the transformative experience.
