Lyrics
I spend nearly all of my time listening to sound advice from those who have no lust for life
I dedicate most of my time to heeding advice from those who lack a passion for life.
I remember feeling well at night, kind of God like
I recall feeling content and powerful during the night, almost like a deity.
When days were just a morning with an evening in the way
Reflecting on a time when days were simple, just a morning leading into an evening.
I can see, in a way, who they wanted us to stay
I perceive, to some extent, the expectations imposed on us regarding who they wished us to become.
There was more to you and I and it was summertime in the Cape
There was a deeper connection between us, and it happened during summertime in the Cape.
When our parents spoke of onus, lacking of us and how we had lost our way
Parents discussing responsibility, our absence, and how we deviated from the intended path.
Any day
An unspecified period of time or event – "Any day."
I would get lost again
Expressing a willingness to lose oneself once more.
I would get lost again with you
Expressing a desire to get lost again, specifically with someone.
Ooh la la, in the weeds lie low
An exclamation, possibly suggesting surprise or admiration. Mention of hiding and lying low in the weeds.
Hiding underneath the fray veil of the hay bale row on row
Describing a concealed position beneath the hay bales, expressing a yearning to be young again.
To be young again, how the time flies and leaves behind imagining and knowing what to say
Reflecting on the passage of time, leaving behind both memories and the ability to articulate thoughts.
There once was a day when a swirling Milky Way shone upon the lake creating a mirage of astral glade
Recollection of a day when the Milky Way reflected on a lake, creating a surreal mirage.
I can't recall the year at all, April turns to evening turns to May
A blurred recollection of time passing, transitioning from April to May.
Anyway
Another unspecified time or event – "Anyway."
I would get lost again
Reiteration of the willingness to lose oneself once more.
I would get lost again with you
Reiteration of the desire to get lost again, specifically with someone.
I remember drifting after mornings, now the morning's after me
Remembering a time of drifting after mornings, now feeling as if the morning is pursuing the speaker.
I would get lost again
Reaffirmation of the willingness to get lost again.
I would get lost again with you
Reaffirmation of the desire to get lost again, specifically with someone.
