Lyrics
And if I say to you tomorrow
Expressing a future scenario or proposition
Take my hand, child, come with me
Inviting someone to join for an adventure
It's to a castle I will take you
Describing a destination, perhaps metaphorical
Where what's to be, they say will be
Referencing fate and destiny
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away, leave today, way up high in the sky
Imagining a carefree, elevated journey
But the wind won't blow, you really shouldn't go, it only goes to show
Warning against proceeding, facing obstacles
That you will be mine, by takin' our time
Emphasizing the importance of taking time in a relationship
And if you say to me tomorrow
Considering a future scenario proposed by the other person
Oh what fun it all would be
Highlighting the potential enjoyment of the suggested future
Then what's to stop us, pretty baby
Raising the question of obstacles or challenges
But what is and what should never be
Reflecting on the contrast between reality and ideal
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away, leave today, way up high in the sky
Repeating the imagery of a whimsical journey
But the wind won't blow, you really shouldn't go, it only goes to show
Reiterating the warning against proceeding
That you will be mine, by takin' our time
Reaffirming the significance of taking time in a relationship
So if you wake up with the sunrise
Introducing a new scenario—waking up with optimism
And all your dreams are still as new
Describing the persistence of dreams
And happiness is what you need so bad
Identifying happiness as a crucial need
Girl, the answer lies with you
Empowering the listener to find solutions within themselves
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away, leave today, way up high in the sky
Recalling the earlier imagery of a fanciful journey
But the wind won't blow, you really shouldn't go, it only goes to show
Reiterating the caution against proceeding impulsively
That you will be mine, by takin' our time
Emphasizing the importance of patience in the relationship
Oh the wind wont blow and we really shouldn't go and it only goes to show
Repeating the warning against proceeding, underscoring the challenges
Catch the wind, we're gonna see it spin, we're gonna sail, leave today
Expressing determination to embark on the journey
Do do do, bop bop a do-oh, my my my my my my yeah
Introducing a musical, rhythmic interlude
Everybody I know seems to know me well
Observing a contrast between public perception and personal reality
But they're never gonna know that I move like hell
Hinting at a hidden, energetic aspect of oneself
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, oh lord
Expressing a sense of reverence or awe
Baby, baby, babe, huh, oh
Concluding with a vocal expression, adding emotional depth
