Close Encounters
Embracing Shadows: Love, Loss, and the Dance of Souls
Lyrics
There's only one thing guaranteed
Expressing a certainty that there is only one assured thing in life.
Nothing in this world is for free
Highlighting the absence of free offerings in the world; everything has a cost.
And you buy and you sell
Describing the process of engaging in transactions, possibly beyond monetary terms.
And you trade with your heart, your body and soul
Trading not just material things but also involving emotions, physicality, and spirituality.
I love it here in the dark
Expressing comfort or satisfaction in obscurity or the unknown.
It makes everything look good
Seeing the positive side of things, finding beauty even in darkness.
My friends all went home
Noticing the departure of friends, potentially creating a sense of isolation.
And I'm dancing on my own
Enjoying solitude and independence while dancing alone.
I love how you move in the lights
Admiring someone's movements in the lights, suggesting attraction.
Oh, man you look so good
Complimenting the person's appearance, possibly expressing desire.
I want to go down on you
Expressing a desire for intimacy through a metaphorical statement.
I want you to take me home
Wanting to be taken to a place of intimacy and vulnerability.
Dance with me
Inviting someone to dance, suggesting a desire for connection.
Dance with me
Repeating the invitation to dance, emphasizing the importance of the act.
Dance with me and I'll give you my soul for free
Promising to give one's soul freely in exchange for dancing together.
And here we lay in the morning sun
Describing a moment of intimacy in the morning sunlight.
As our lives slowly fade away
Reflecting on the gradual fading of life and experiences.
Who we were and what we did
Contemplating the impact of past actions on identity and change.
Will never have made a change
Asserting that past actions may not have altered the course of life.
I pull myself close to you
Seeking emotional closeness in the morning sunlight.
And in the morning sun we make love
Engaging in a physical expression of love in the morning sun.
And then we say our goodbyes
Mentioning the customary farewells after a moment of intimacy.
And we pay with our hearts and our souls
Highlighting the emotional and spiritual cost of parting ways.
Dance with me
Reiterating the invitation to dance, emphasizing its significance.
Dance with me
Repeating the call to dance, reinforcing the importance of the connection.
Dance with me and I'll give you my soul for free
Promising to give one's soul freely in exchange for dancing together.
Come with me
Inviting someone to accompany and join in a journey.
Come with me
Repeating the invitation to come along, offering emotional and spiritual payment.
Come with me and I'll pay you with my heart and my soul
Expressing a willingness to pay with one's heart and soul for companionship.
With my soul
Repeating the commitment to share one's soul with the other person.
With my soul
Reiterating the commitment to share one's soul with the other person.
