Postcards from Tiny Islands
Midnight Musings: Postcards from Tiny Islands Unveiled
Lyrics
Many nights, dwindle by
Reflecting on numerous nights passing by.
Midnight moon's on the rise
Observing the moon rising at midnight.
My heavy head's gone light
Feeling a lightness in the head, possibly a sense of relief or clarity.
So, I'll go home and sleep tonight
Deciding to go home and sleep.
I'm walking tonight about as far as I can go
Expressing the act of walking as far as possible at night.
I listen to that song by the Moon-glows
Listening to a song by the Moon-glows, suggesting a reflective mood.
Here's to you and the stars above
Toasting to the person and stars above.
The half-moon in your pretty eyes
Admiring the half-moon reflected in someone's eyes.
And here's to you and the setting sun
Toasting to someone and the setting sun.
The barmen and their sorry songs
Acknowledging the bartender and their melancholic songs.
I'll be drunk before too long
Anticipating getting drunk soon.
And I'll keep up this sappy talk
Committing to continuing sentimental conversation.
This letter does it all
Suggesting that the letter expresses everything.
It's too much to enclose
Implying the contents of the letter are overwhelming.
These postcards from tiny islands
Highlighting the significance of postcards from small islands.
Do more than you know
Indicating the postcards have a profound impact.
So here's to you and the ground below
Offering a toast to someone and the ground below.
The glass ball in the empty sky
Noting a glass ball in the empty sky, possibly a metaphorical image.
I'm walking tonight about as far as I can go
Reiterating the act of walking as far as possible at night.
The marble (were stone in me?)
Unclear line, possibly referring to a change in material or emotional state.
The midnight moon is up
Confirming the midnight moon's presence.
This letter does it all
Repeating the idea that the letter encompasses everything.
It's too much to enclose
Reiterating that the contents of the letter are too much to contain.
I feel so easy now
Expressing a sense of ease.
Everything is working out
Feeling that everything is falling into place.
Oh, holidays are flying by
Acknowledging the passage of time, possibly with a hint of nostalgia.
