We
England Dan/John Ford Coley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We'll play it way down low.
There's a tear in your eye that's reflecting the fire's glow.
And I wish that this night would never end.
The sun ain't gonna be my friend.
Lying here awaiting here and wishing I knew when
We'll never have to say goodbye again.
We'll never have to say goodbye again.
You must leave, I know you will.
I won't let you go until you show me the secret.
For making this time stand still.
And somewhere sometime from now together again somehow.
All of the waiting will seem like a moment and then
The whole night afraid to see the light.
And the whole day crying.
Wishing I knew when
The lyrics to this song tell the story of two lovers who are spending a night together and desperately wish that they could stay together forever. They turn on the radio and play it low as they lie down together, gazing into the flickering fire. The singer acknowledges that his love will have to leave soon but pleads with her to show him the secret of making time stand still, so that they can stay together forever. He dreams of a future where they will be together again, and all the waiting will seem like just a fleeting moment.
The line "the sun ain't gonna be my friend" expresses the sadness and hopelessness that the singer feels at the thought of his love leaving. He is lying there, waiting for her to go, but wishing that he didn't have to. The repetition of the chorus "We'll never have to say goodbye again" emphasizes the singer’s desire to stay together with his lover forever.
