Overland
Journey of Solitude: Rose Bassett's Overland Explained
Lyrics
9 AM upon my watch
Starting the day at 9 AM, checking the time on the watch.
slam the door and I'll kick up dust
Expressing a forceful departure, raising dust by slamming the door.
I'll hail down a ride
Flagging down a ride, indicating a desire to move forward.
Blurry green of country side
Observing the blurred green scenery of the countryside.
I watch it pass as Ronan drives
Watching the landscape pass while being driven by Ronan.
He, drops me off
Being dropped off by Ronan.
Here I am on my own again
Expressing solitude, finding oneself alone once again.
Here I am on my own
Reiterating the feeling of being alone.
Finding a little more time again
Discovering or creating more time for oneself.
Finding a little more time,
Continuing to find additional time.
Alone again
Emphasizing the state of being alone again.
Walk upon a different track
Walking on a different path or journey.
a river winding there and back
Describing a river's winding course, symbolizing life's journey.
Cooling me down
Feeling cooled down, possibly emotionally or spiritually.
I talk about you to the trees
Talking to nature about someone, possibly seeking solace.
I felt them smile back in the breeze,
Sensing a positive response from nature through the trees and breeze.
Oh it's funny
Reflecting on the irony of what nature understands.
what they know
Noting the wisdom or insights gained from nature.
Here I am on my own again
Repeating the theme of being alone once again.
Here I am on my own
Emphasizing the current state of solitude.
Finding a little more time again
Continuing the search for more time for oneself.
Finding a little more time
Reiterating the pursuit of additional time.
Alone Again
Closing with the affirmation of being alone again.
