Gilgamesh
Gypsy & The Cat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don't have to say I'm wrong
As I float on through this windless orchard
Shadows favor all the dark in sight
I feel the light it cuts my face
I'm staring at the wall
It wont be long till we embrace
I'm knocking on your wall
And maybe we'll drift on through the world
I miss you every day that I'm breathing
I couldn't even say goodbye
I'm dreaming that your face is smiling
It wont be to long till I meet you there
Where have you run to I need to know
Where will I find you I have to go
If I die please don't cry
Ill be there by your side
If I die please don't cry
Ill be there inside your arms.

Searching for an endless moment
I am looking for a moment that will last forever
You don't have to say I'm wrong
You don't need to contradict me
As I float on through this windless orchard
I am moving aimlessly through this still and quiet place
Shadows favor all the dark in sight
The shadows seem to prefer the darkness over the light
I feel the light it cuts my face
The brightness of the light is intense and almost painful on my skin
I'm staring at the wall
I am lost in thought, looking off into space
It wont be long till we embrace
We will be together soon
I'm knocking on your wall
I am trying to connect with you
Lady, take me to the magic wall
Take me to a special place where we can be together
And maybe we'll drift on through the world
Perhaps we can wander freely through the world together
I miss you every day that I'm breathing
I long for you every moment of every day
I couldn't even say goodbye
I did not have the chance to bid you farewell
I'm dreaming that your face is smiling
In my dreams, you are happy and content
It wont be to long till I meet you there
Before too much time has passed, we will be reunited
Where have you run to I need to know
I do not know where you have gone, and it worries me
Where will I find you I have to go
I must go searching for you; I will try to find you wherever you are
If I die please don't cry
If I pass away, please do not mourn me too greatly
Ill be there by your side
I will be with you always, no matter what happens
Ill be there inside your arms.
I will be close to you, and we will embrace each other
