My Baby's Waitin'
Eternal Love's Message Beyond Time
Lyrics
When I'm gone
Expressing the speaker's absence.
No need to wonder if I ever think of you
Assuring the listener that thoughts of them persist.
The same moon shines
Highlighting the shared experience under the same moon.
The same wind blows
Emphasizing the commonality of the wind's influence.
For both of us, and time is but a paper moon...
Time is fleeting, like a fragile paper moon.
Be not gone
Encouraging the listener not to be dismayed by the absence.
Though I'm gone
Despite the physical absence, the emotional connection endures.
It's just as though I hold the flower that touches you
Symbolizing a tender connection through a metaphorical flower.
A new life grows
Alluding to the growth of a new life or love.
The blossom knows
Highlighting the blossoming awareness of mutual affection.
There's no one else could warm my heart as much as you...
Expressing the uniqueness of the listener's impact on the speaker's heart.
Be not gone
Reiterating the encouragement not to be disheartened.
Let us cling together as the years go by
Advocating unity and togetherness over time.
Oh my love, my love
Addressing the depth of love in a personal, endearing way.
In the quiet of the night
Referencing the tranquility of the night as a backdrop for love.
Let our candle always burn
Symbolizing the eternal flame of love that should always burn.
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
Stressing the importance of retaining learned lessons.
