Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play

Dear Prudence open up your eyes
Dear Prudence see the sunny skies
The wind is low the birds will sing
That you are part of everything
Dear Prudence won't you open up your eyes?

Look around round
Look around round round
Look around

Dear Prudence let me see you smile
Dear Prudence like a little child
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again
Dear Prudence won't you let me see you smile?

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue




It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play

Overall Meaning

The song "Dear Prudence" is a touching and uplifting tribute to the spirit of someone who may be feeling down or isolated. The singer, who addresses Prudence directly throughout the song, urges her to "come out to play" and enjoy the beauty of the world around her. The lyrics are filled with descriptions of nature - the blue sky, the singing birds, the daisy chain of clouds - and the singer implies that Prudence is a necessary and beautiful part of that world.


The song's chorus, "Look around, round / Look around, round, round / Look around," seems to suggest that by simply taking in her surroundings and experiencing the present moment fully, Prudence can find joy and connection. And the final verse, where the singer asks Prudence to smile like a little child, reinforces the idea that even in difficult times, it's possible to find wonder and happiness in simple things.
