Sleeper
Embrace the Light: Finding Connection in Spielbergs' "Sleeper
Lyrics
The sun is setting close your eyes
The day is ending; close your eyes.
tomorrow you will realise
Tomorrow, you will understand.
that you are not the only one
A realization that you are not alone.
that wonders where you’re coming from
Others also ponder about your origin.
Every time you’re on your own
When you are by yourself, it's easy to feel abandoned.
it’s easy to feel left alone
Despite that, I am here, observing you.
but I am here I’m watching you
Reassurance that the speaker is present.
I’m here and I will see you through
Commitment to support and guide you.
So please
An appeal to embrace connection.
throw your arms around me
A request to share an intimate embrace.
Everybody needs someone
Highlighting the universal need for companionship.
to be there when things go wrong
The importance of having someone during tough times.
and everyday you walk this earth
An acknowledgment of the challenges in life.
you’ll need somebody when it hurts
Emphasizing the need for support during hardships.
So please
A repeated plea for physical closeness.
throw your arms around me
An urgent request to embrace the speaker.
I beg you
An additional plea for connection.
just please
A reiterated request for physical closeness.
throw your arms around me
Continued urgency for an embrace.
I beg you
A repeated plea for physical closeness.
don’t ever
An appeal to never request separation.
tell me to
A plea not to instruct the speaker to leave.
go
An emphatic request to stay together.
