Comfort Me
Eternal Bonds: Finding Comfort in Love's Timeless Embrace
Lyrics
We're gettin' old
We're aging
And time's runnin' out
Time is running out
If you go first I think I'll break down
Fear of emotional breakdown if the partner passes away first
But if you bury me
If the speaker dies, don't grieve excessively
Let your tears dry out
Allow time for mourning but move on
Don't go chasin' me down
Don't relentlessly pursue the memory of the speaker
And I see the sun
The speaker perceives positivity, possibly in the partner's presence
And it's bouncin' off your smile into my eyes
The partner's smile has a profound impact on the speaker
And I can't believe that an angel would comfort me
The speaker feels unworthy of an angel's comfort
Light a fire and take me to the stream
A metaphorical journey with the partner, seeking solace
Dust to dust I'll become one with the sea
Acceptance of mortality, becoming part of nature
Have I done this a thousand times?
Reflecting on life's repetitions and experiences
I'll find you in another life
Belief in a connection with the partner in future lives
Oh I see the sun
Reiteration of the positive impact of the partner's presence
And it's bouncin' off your smile into my eyes
Continued impact of the partner's smile on the speaker
And I can't believe that an angel would comfort me
Reiteration of feeling unworthy of angelic comfort
Pretty soon you'll find
Anticipation of the partner finding peace and unity
Here there's no space or time
Suggesting a transcendent, timeless connection
I can hear you and you're tellin' me
The partner communicates from beyond
Forever in your heart I'll be
The speaker will reside eternally in the partner's heart
Forever in my heart you'll be
The partner will reside eternally in the speaker's heart
Oh I see the sun
Positive perception of the partner continues
And it's bouncin' off your smile into my eyes
Impact of the partner's smile persists
And I can't believe that an angel would comfort me
Reiteration of disbelief in receiving angelic comfort
