Please Please Please
Longing Streets: A Tale of Love Lost and Urban Echoes
Lyrics
Long time ago
Reflecting on a distant past
And the times we had were so and so
Recalling times that were mediocre
It was the worst date of your life
Describing a particularly bad date experience
So I called your home
Attempting to contact the person
Your so-called father was on the phone
Encountering an unsupportive father figure
He wasn't easy to ignore
Father's presence is challenging to disregard
But we're all happy 'cause the streets they're always there for us
Finding solace in the constant presence of streets
And it's quite scary when you wake up in the same old clubs
Feeling uneasy waking up in familiar, unfulfilling places
It's getting darker and I know this time wasn't meant for us
Sensing a negative shift in circumstances
So won't you please, please, please come back to me
Pleading for a return of the person
But yesterday when I saw your eyes in a black haze
Observing the person in a disconnected state
You didn't even know my name
Not being recognized by the person
So I walked on pretending that you still belong
Pretending that the connection remains, though it's changed
But it would never be the same no more
Acknowledging that things will never be the same
But we're all happy 'cause the streets they're always there for us
Deriving happiness from the constancy of streets
And it's quite scary when you wake up in the same old clubs
Expressing discomfort in recurring, uninspiring places
It's getting darker and I know this time wasn't meant for us
Recognizing a growing darkness in the situation
So won't you please, please, please come back to me
Reiterating the plea for a return
It's like a picture of a loved one in disguise
Comparing the situation to a disguised image of a loved one
Or it's like finding something pretty in a jar of flies
Drawing a parallel to finding beauty in an unpleasant context
And if you want just hide your eyes behind your hair
Suggesting hiding behind something, perhaps to avoid reality
But you can't see me then, no, you can't find me anywhere
Emphasizing invisibility and untraceability
But we're all happy 'cause the streets they're always there for us
Finding comfort in the constant presence of streets (repeated)
And it's quite scary when you wake up in the same old clubs
Feeling uneasy waking up in familiar, unfulfilling places (repeated)
It's getting darker and I know this time wasn't meant for us
Noting the deepening negativity in the situation (repeated)
So won't you please, please, please come back to me
Repeating the plea for a return
Come back to me
Reiterating the request for a comeback
Please please please
Multiple pleas for a return (repeated)
Please please please
Continuation of the repeated plea for a return
