Lyrics
There's a shadow on the terrace
There's a sense of darkness or negativity on the terrace.
A snow dance for the living
Symbolic dance representing a plea for life or vitality.
There's heavy weather on the way
Difficult times or challenges are approaching.
I heard it on the news.
The news confirms the impending difficult situation.
And life's a tough principal who won't reward the losers
Life is challenging, and success is not guaranteed for everyone.
Your name is on the tea-cup
A personalized touch, possibly a metaphor for a relationship.
There's nothing I can do.
Feeling helpless, unable to change the situation.
But to wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
Expressing a desire for consideration before the person sleeps.
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.
Wishing the person the best possible outcome in their endeavors.
There are tears without the colour
Tears that lack vibrancy or emotion.
A million seas with water
Abundance of opportunities or possibilities.
An ocean full of people where shattered hearts can go.
A community of broken hearts finding solace in each other.
And love's a golden ripple where answers are so simple
Love is a powerful force with simple solutions but challenging explanations.
But the explanations are very hard to do.
Explaining love is difficult despite its simplicity.
And I wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
Reiterating the desire for consideration before sleep.
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep
Wishing the person the best once again before sleep.
Go to sleep.
A directive to go to sleep, possibly indicating closure or acceptance.
