Miranda

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I missed the rainbow when my umbrella was on
We passed the tunnel with all happiness and sorrow
Now waiting here for you seems like a fairy to be told
We cycle through the woods where used to have squirrels
Slipping onto water, getting into trouble as usual
I am here to stay, I choose to face the hollow
Miranda Miranda
Walking down the road with great grandpapa
Miranda Miranda
You're leaving cos you wanna be more easier
Miranda Miranda
Someone is calling and I wanna answer
Miranda Miranda
Staring at the roof, the world is getting closer
The field was full of clowns, they're hunting for master
But no one hears a thing while I was screaming
I feel my tears when looking at your fear
Miranda Miranda
Walking down the road with great grandpapa
Miranda Miranda
You're leaving cos you wanna be more easier
Miranda Miranda
Someone is calling and I wanna answer
Miranda Miranda
The name stay here forever.
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo......
The lyrics to "Miranda" by Monkey's song convey a sense of longing, nostalgia, and the bittersweet nature of love. The singer reflects on a past relationship, expressing that the road they traveled together was long and that their love eventually faded away. The imagery of missing a rainbow while having an umbrella up symbolizes missed opportunities and how sometimes we unintentionally block ourselves from experiencing joy. The lyrics also mention passing through a tunnel that held both happiness and sorrow, indicating that their relationship had its ups and downs.
The second verse describes the singer and their loved one cycling through woods that were once inhabited by squirrels. This symbolizes their playful and mischievous nature, always getting into trouble together. Despite facing emptiness and hollowness, the singer chooses to stay and confront their feelings. However, they acknowledge that their love for the other person will eventually fade in the shadow, suggesting that their relationship has come to an end.
The chorus of the song addresses Miranda directly, emphasizing her importance in the singer's life. The repetition of her name and the mention of walking with great grandpapa imply a strong familial bond. The lyrics suggest that Miranda is leaving because she wants an easier life, and someone is calling out to her, possibly representing a new opportunity or a different love interest. The singer expresses a desire to answer that call and move forward, despite the pain they feel when seeing Miranda's fear and the realization that their love story may be over.
Overall, "Miranda" explores themes of lost love, the passing of time, and the complexities of relationships.

The road is too long and my blue bird had gone
The journey ahead seems endless and I have lost my source of happiness
I missed the rainbow when my umbrella was on
I overlooked the beauty and joy around me when I was too focused on protecting myself
We passed the tunnel with all happiness and sorrow
We experienced both joy and sadness as we journeyed through life together
Now waiting here for you seems like a fairy to be told
Waiting for your return feels like an unbelievable fantasy
We cycle through the woods where used to have squirrels
We used to explore the forest where squirrels used to roam
Slipping onto water, getting into trouble as usual
We often find ourselves in trouble while engaging in adventurous activities
I am here to stay, I choose to face the hollow
I am committed to staying strong and confronting the emptiness
Oh my love for you will fade in shadow
My love for you will gradually diminish over time
Miranda Miranda
Walking down the road with great grandpapa
Miranda, walking alongside my beloved great grandpapa along life's journey
You're leaving cos you wanna be more easier
You are leaving because you desire a simpler existence
Someone is calling and I wanna answer
There is someone calling out to me and I wish to respond
Staring at the roof, the world is getting closer
As I gaze at the ceiling, the world feels increasingly near and tangible
The field was full of clowns, they're hunting for master
The field was filled with people putting on a facade, searching for a leader
But no one hears a thing while I was screaming
Despite my cries for help, nobody seems to hear me
I feel my tears when looking at your fear
I can't help but shed tears when I see the fear in your eyes
The name stay here forever
The memory and presence of our love will remain here eternally
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo......
