Here and Somewhere Else
Journey Through Memory: Here and Somewhere Else
Lyrics
There's a warmth in your eyes, so far away.
Expressing the perceived warmth in the person's eyes, though physically distant.
There's a place in my mind for you today.
Mentally reserving a space or importance for the person in the speaker's thoughts today.
If you follow me down to the shore tonight
Inviting the person to join the speaker near the shore during the night.
I'll show you a town, this town was right.
Promising to reveal a town that holds significance or meaning.
There's a place in my mind, like a bridge for shoes,
Describing a mental space comparable to a bridge, suggesting accessibility and connection.
I can cross anytime just to be with you;
Expressing the ease with which the speaker can be with the person at any time.
And it feels like I only got here yesterday;
Conveying a sense of recent arrival or newness.
And it feels like I'll never see the sun again.
Contrasting the initial warmth with a feeling of potential eternal darkness.
There's a road up ahead that I think I'll take.
Contemplating a future path and decision to be made.
It's a light by some dread; it's the road he made.
Referring to a road with a source of light, possibly associated with anxiety or fear.
If I follow you down this way again,
Considering a repeated journey, urging belief in a significant sound or message.
Believe in that sound, it's awakened them.
Attributing importance to a certain sound and its impact.
And it feels like we all just got here yesterday,
Expressing a shared sense of recent arrival and being in a transitional state.
In between here and somewhere else.
Describing the space between the current moment and an unspecified elsewhere.
Rain on the world down there, I can only smile.
Expressing the speaker's ability to smile despite rain in the world below.
Rain anywhere just not here, just not here.
Preferring rain anywhere but the current location.
There's a warmth in your eyes, so far away.
Reiterating the perception of warmth in the person's eyes from a distance.
There's a place in my mind for you today.
Repeating the idea of reserving mental space or significance for the person today.
