Marco Polo
Blueboy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You profound
Closer the teacher answers clearly now
Like my son yeah
Seize the day
Never and nevermore
You are with me
Well we should try
Climb the stairs unwrap the moon
Don't let go so soon
Climb the stairs unwrap the moon
Don't let go so soon
Could it be these symbols symbolize
Cut up technique throw it all away
Without you I would rather be on my own
No more days scared of being alone
Climb the stairs unwrap the moon
Don't let go so soon
Climb the stairs unwrap the moon
Don't let go so soon
The lyrics to Blueboy's song Marco Polo are in essence an exhortation to seize the moment, and make the most of life. The opening lines suggest that the deeper the division or challenge, the more significant the resulting insight, and the more profound the answers that can be found. It could be interpreted as a message to persevere in the face of adversity, as the more difficult the problem to solve, the more valuable the eventual solution may be.
The reference to a teacher appearing to answer more clearly is an intriguing one, as it suggests the presence of a wise and all-knowing figure offering guidance and clarity. The final lines suggest that we should take risks and try new things in order to fully engage with life, and that there may be beauty and wonder to be found in the most unexpected places.
The repeated refrain to climb the stairs and unwrap the moon is a poetic invitation to embrace life's mysteries and to strive to achieve great things. The final plea to "Don't let go so soon" could be interpreted as a warning not to let fear or doubt hold us back from living life to the fullest.

Seize the day
Take advantage of today
Never and nevermore
Never again
You are with me
You are by my side

We alternate between showing love and arguing
Well we should try
We should make an effort
Climb the stairs unwrap the moon
Push yourself hard, reach for the impossible
Don't let go so soon
Don't give up too quickly

Forget everything you've learned and start anew
Without you I would rather be on my own

I am not afraid to be alone anymore
