What Kind Of World
Exploring Love and Loss: Tom Bailey's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
En qu tipo de mundo vives?
Asking about the type of world one lives in
The land of love and loss, our favourite game
Describes a world characterized by experiences of love and loss
No matter how we play, the score remains the same
Despite different approaches, the outcome or result remains unchanged
We've sung this song before - didn't listen then
Reflects on past experiences of not paying attention or heeding advice
bout making love not war, we'll have to sing again
Expresses the need to emphasize love over conflict and repeat the message
Chorus
Repetition of the main question or theme
What kind of world
Continuation of the inquiry about the nature of the world
Do you think we'll find?
Asks for speculation about the type of world that might be discovered
What kind of memories
Wondering about the memories that have been left behind
we left behind?
Asks about the dreams or aspirations in the vastness of space
What kind of dream
Contemplates the possibility of living and loving in different environments
amongst the stars?
Reflects on the accumulation of various aspirations, some of which couldn't be realized
To live and love on earth, and live and die on Mars?
Due to limitations, some dreams or desires had to be abandoned
We took the hopes and fantasies and dreams of every kind
Describes a journey with an uncertain outcome to a distant place
And what we couldn't fit in, we had to leave behind
Hope for a favorable outcome upon arrival at the destination
A one-way ticket to a place so far away
Symbolic gesture of unity and connection amidst vastness
And now my only hope is: when we get there we can stay
Expresses a feeling of uncertainty about the future despite the current situation
And now we're holding hands across the universe
Comparison between past experiences and the current situation
It couldn't be much better, but it couldn't be much worse
Reflects on the similarity and difference in experiences from previous encounters
We've been this way before, but nothing seems the same
Anticipation of potential realization or revelation upon arrival at the destination
And maybe when we get there, we'll wonder why we came
Speculation about questioning the purpose or reason for the journey upon reaching the destination
