Hover
Ephemeral Moments: The Districts' 'Hover' Unveils Love's Transience
Lyrics
I crack the code
I decipher a hidden message or solve a mystery
Only for a second
This understanding only lasts briefly
And then it's gone
The revelation disappears or is fleeting
Out from your eyes
It becomes apparent from your gaze
Pouring just water
Tears are shed
You never know
Uncertainty about what can be recalled
What you can remember
Memory is elusive, questioning its accuracy
Or if it's right
Uncertain if the recollection is correct
Filled in the gaps
Filling in the gaps of understanding
Fooled by an illusion
Deceived by a false perception
Cause nothing lasts
Because nothing endures indefinitely
Forever
Everything has a finite existence
Stay right beside me
Stay close to me until our departure
Until we go
Remain with me until we leave
Fall right back
Return to a previous state
To fall right back
Regress to a prior condition
Tomorrow
Referencing the future
Hover
Hovering or lingering
I never said
Denial of needing another person
I need another
Rejecting the necessity for another
Lover, nothing more
Desire for a lover and nothing more
Hovering overhead
Being watched from above
A helicopter
Comparing to a hovering helicopter
Spotlight
An intense focus or attention
I'm as good as dead
Feeling emotionally dead or numb
Hover
Continuation of hovering
Flash bulb
An intense burst of light
You're blind
Being unable to see temporarily
Glass refracts and shatters
Glass distorts and breaks
In the light
Occurs in bright illumination
Frozen in time
Fixed in a moment in the past
Held up and captured
Held and trapped in time
What were these lost days
Reflecting on days that are lost
But a series of holograms
Memories as holographic images
Across the cinema of my mind
The mental cinema of memories
And where does that leave room for you
A question about the place for someone special
Love of my whole life
Expressing deep love for someone
What were these lost days
Reflection on days to be remembered
But a series of forget me nots
Memories as enduring and unforgettable
Sand between your fingers
Feelings slipping away like sand
Under blood red skies
An intense emotional experience
Flash bulb you're blind
Blinded by a sudden burst of light
Hover
Continuation of hovering or lingering
I never said
Denial of needing another person
I need another
Rejecting the necessity for another
Lover, nothing more
Desire for a lover and nothing more
Hovering overhead
Being watched from above
A helicopter
Comparing to a hovering helicopter
Spotlight
An intense focus or attention
I'm as good as dead
Feeling emotionally dead or numb
Hover
Continuation of hovering
