The husband doesn't want things to change, he just wants to be with the woman he loves without her worrying about things that they can't control.
I CAN T WAIT TO SEE YOU AGAIN SONG LYRICS FULL
We used to play outside when we were young,Īnd full of live and full of love (Husband)" Soon it will all be over, buried with our past (Wife) Tell her that I miss our little talks (Husband) "There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back (Wife) The husband is trying to tell her to remember the good times so that he can be around the woman he loves again. In the next verse it is the wife who is again letting the thought of old age scare her. But their love (the ship) will lead them to an eternity of being together. The chorus shows the overlying message that with their old age they can't always trust where their minds are at. The husband likely feels the same way, but he holds his wife's hand and tries to comfort her anyway. I think they are both aware of how old they are getting and the wife is showing that sometimes she doesn't want to sleep for fear of not waking up. It's the house telling you to close your eyes (Husband)" The stairs creak as I sleep, it's keeping me awake (Wife) So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear (Husband) "I don't like walking around this old and empty house (Wife) You can picture them in laying in bed while the wife talks to her husband how she is scared of falling asleep. The husband tries to comfort his wife, as it is just the two of them in the house. The music from the start has a kind of old-timey feel almost like they are remembering their past and trying to comfort each other in their confusing present. When people get older they don't always know why they feel the way the do or why they say the things they say, but the constant in this couple is the love they have for each other. They both know that the other isn't in the same place mentally as they once were so they just cling to each other for comfort. I think it's about an old couple that have been so in love for so many years. General CommentTo me this song, just the way it sounds, is way too beautiful to be about a failing marriage or just sleeping. Now wait, wait, wait for me, please hang around Your mind is playing tricks on you, my dear Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right We used to play outside when we were young Soon it will all be over, and buried with our past Well, tell her that I miss our little talks This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore It's the house telling you to close your eyes So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear I don't like walking around this old and empty house
