May The Song Be Sung
Lonesome Echoes: A Journey Through Love's Melody
Lyrics
Just a smoke and a kiss on a night like this
Expressing a moment of intimacy with a kiss and a shared smoke on a special night.
The harp blowin' that low and muddy tone
Describing the atmosphere with the harp playing a deep, soulful tone.
And the strings were keepin' time and you were by my side
Highlighting the presence of a significant person, keeping time with the music.
The one night I weren't alone
Reflecting on a rare night of not feeling lonely.
Now night is into day and there's nothing left to say
Transitioning to a time when the relationship has ended, and silence prevails.
You turned your back and dropped me on my knees
Describing a moment of betrayal where the person turned away, causing emotional distress.
I can't eat and I can't sleep for your heart I'll never keep
Expressing the impact of the heartbreak on basic functions like eating and sleeping.
But I'll stand up lest your good gal should see
Committing to stand strong, possibly to maintain dignity in front of others.
May the song be sung for the words unsaid
Wishing for the unspoken words to be acknowledged through a song.
And the tune raise my soul to the sky
Desiring the music to elevate the spirit, possibly providing solace or catharsis.
Well I'll walk my lonesome road ahead
Acknowledging a solitary journey ahead, walking alone.
Till I'm carried to my home on high
Expressing a hope or belief in being transported to a higher, spiritual home.
Next time I catch your eye I'll wave my last goodbye
Anticipating a final farewell with a wave when eye contact is made again.
And walk into the Mighty Su to die
Contemplating a dramatic act, walking into the Mighty Su (possibly a river) to meet one's end.
When I take my last breath your name will leave my chest
Imagining that the last breath will release the memory of the person's name.
And I'll wait for us to meet by and by
Waiting for a reunion in the afterlife, suggesting a belief in an afterlife or spiritual meeting.
May the song be sung for the words unsaid
Reiterating the desire for a song to convey unspoken emotions.
And the tune raise my soul to the sky
Re-emphasizing the wish for the music to lift the soul toward the sky.
Well I'll walk my lonesome road ahead
Restating the theme of a solitary journey ahead.
Till I'm carried to my home on high
Repeating the aspiration to be carried to a higher, spiritual home.
Till I'm carried to my home on high
Reiterating the hope for a spiritual destination in the afterlife.
