Miss My Lion
Yearning for Home: Embracing Love in the Slow Dance of Life
Lyrics
When we get home
Anticipation of returning home
It'll be like a party
Expectation of a joyful atmosphere
He's learned to move
Reference to someone's improved movement skills
Real slowly
Emphasis on a deliberate and measured pace
See how we move?
Observation of collective movement with suddenness and playfulness
Sudden and playful
Describing the style of movement
We have it all
Expressing possession of everything
But I miss my lion
Expressing a longing for someone referred to as "my lion"
He's already there
Indication that the lion figure is already present at home
Waiting to greet me
Waiting eagerly to welcome the speaker
When you drive
Commenting on the sincerity of the person driving
There's no fooling me
Avoiding deception or trickery while driving
Those roads invited me
Feeling invited by the roads, possibly metaphorical
When you drive
Reiteration of the significance of driving
There's no fooling me
Reaffirming the inability to be fooled during driving
Those roads invited me
Emphasizing the allure of the roads
When we get home
Repetition of the anticipation of returning home
It'll be like a party
Reiteration of the expected festive atmosphere at home
He's learned how to move
Confirmation of the improved movement skills at home
Real slowly
Restatement of deliberate and measured movement
He's already here
Reiteration that the lion figure is already present
Waiting to greet me
Reaffirmation of the lion figure waiting eagerly at home
