NEVER LAND
Enchanting Love: A Peter Pan Tale of Soaring Emotions
Lyrics
Head over heels
Expressing intense emotions, being deeply infatuated.
So in love with this feeling tonight
Being in love and enjoying the emotions of the moment.
(We're soaring, we're flying, we're dreaming)
Describing a sense of freedom and imagination.
I find myself wondering
Reflecting on the whereabouts of a person in one's life.
Where had he been all my life
Questioning where a significant person has been throughout one's life.
(We're climbing, we're reaching higher and higher)
Emphasizing progress and aspiration.
I never could imagine loving like I love him
Expressing surprise at the depth of love experienced.
I thought that I'd be growing old alone
Initial expectation of growing old without a partner.
But deep in his eyes
Discovering a special quality in the person's eyes.
Was a glimmer and shine
Noticing a sparkle or brightness in the person's eyes.
As he said
Transition to a spoken part of the lyrics.
He said
Repetition for emphasis.
Come on Wendy, take my hand
Invitation to join in an adventure, referencing Peter Pan and Wendy.
You can call me Peter Pan
Identification with Peter Pan, a character associated with eternal youth.
We could fly above a cloudy night
Desire to escape reality and experience a carefree journey.
I swear we'll never land
Pledge to avoid settling down or becoming stagnant.
Then I gave him all my trust
Commitment to the relationship by giving trust.
And a bit of pixie dust
Symbolic reference to magic and enchantment.
Magic waking up in us
Awakening of magical elements within the relationship.
And we're singing just like
Expressing joy and happiness through singing.
Feeling the floor leave my feet
Sensation of floating or flying, suggesting ecstasy.
Got no ceiling tonight
Freedom from constraints and limitations.
(We're soaring, we're flying, we're dreaming)
Reiteration of the theme of freedom and dreams.
I'm learning to lean in
Learning to trust and depend on the partner.
His arms around me so divine
Feeling secure and cherished in the partner's embrace.
(We're climbing, we're reaching higher and)
Continuation of the themes of climbing and reaching for higher goals.
He said
Resumption of the spoken part of the lyrics.
Come on Wendy, take my hand
Reiteration of the invitation to join in an adventure.
You can call me Peter Pan
Reaffirmation of identification with Peter Pan.
We could fly above a cloudy night
Restating the desire to escape reality and never settle down.
I swear we'll never land
Commitment to avoid landing or settling in a routine.
Then I gave him all my trust
Recommitting trust in the relationship.
And a bit of pixie dust
Reference to magical elements sustaining the relationship.
Magic waking up in us
Continuation of the magical awakening within the relationship.
And we're singing just like
Reiteration of the joy expressed through singing.
