Fisherman's Delight
Fisherman's Delight: A Melodic Dive into Love's Endless Sea
Lyrics
I will lay beside you
I will be with you.
On this long and lonely night
During this extended and solitary night.
'Cause the flood that drowns the sailor
The flood that overwhelms the sailor is a source of joy for the fisherman.
Is the fisherman's delight
Expressing the paradoxical delight in challenges that others find difficult.
Love is a super power
Love is a powerful force.
Like an endless sea
Comparing love to an infinite sea.
I will swim to you
Committing to reaching out to the loved one.
If you will swim to me
A reciprocal desire for the loved one to approach.
I can drink your song
Enjoying the essence of the loved one's expression.
I'm drunken from your sound
Feeling intoxicated by the sounds of the loved one.
If this is love then let me drown
If this overwhelming feeling is love, then embracing it fully, even if it feels like drowning.
Let me drown
Repetition of the desire to drown in love.
What a perfect night
An ideal night to forget pain and embrace enlightenment.
To forget your pain
Encouraging detachment from suffering.
And finally see the light
Hopeful about seeing the positive side after enduring difficulties.
After forty nights of rain
Referencing a prolonged period of challenges (forty nights of rain).
Little boy blue come blow your horn
Alluding to a nursery rhyme, suggesting the anticipation of something new.
A melody yet to be born
Expecting a yet-to-be-born melody.
I will lay beside you
Reiteration of the commitment to be with the loved one.
On this long and lonely night
Emphasizing the companionship during a lengthy and solitary night.
'Cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Repeating the metaphor of the flood, portraying challenges as delights for the fisherman.
Is the fisherman's delight...
Restating the joy found in challenges.
The fisherman's delight
Reiteration of the fisherman's delight.
Once I was on the hill
Reflecting on a past state of being on top, now in a challenging situation.
Now I am in the hole
Describing a shift from a high point to a difficult situation.
But there's a hope that prances
Finding hope in the spotlight of the soul.
In the footlights of my soul
Expressing optimism amid challenges.
In a sea of sadness
Using a sea of sadness metaphor to emphasize a small source of joy.
Find a drop of gladness
Searching for moments of happiness.
Just to fill my bowl
Metaphorically filling one's emotional bowl with positivity.
I will lay beside you
Repeating the commitment to companionship.
On this long and lonely night
Emphasizing the enduring nature of the night.
'Cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Recalling the flood metaphor, depicting challenges as the fisherman's delight.
Is the fisherman's delight...
Reiterating the joy derived from challenges.
The fisherman's delight
Restating the fisherman's delight.
Lovers fill the streets
Observing lovers in the streets and their burdensome steps.
And drag there leaden feet
Noting a tendency for lovers to express their emotions through tears.
Somehow they always seem to cry
Commenting on the emotional complexity of love.
Bombs and blessings
Highlighting the uncertainty of what will happen in the future.
Everybody's guessing
Everyone speculating on whether the next event will be positive or negative.
What will next fall from the sky
Alluding to unpredictable events falling from the sky.
I will lay beside you
Reaffirming the commitment to be with the loved one.
On this long and lonely night
Stressing the enduring nature of the night.
'Cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Recalling the flood metaphor and the joy found in challenges.
Is the fisherman's delight...
Reiterating the fisherman's delight.
The fisherman's delight
Concluding with the repetition of the fisherman's delight.
