Meditation
Laura & Anton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I run all the way there
I guess I’m running out of things to say
My last poems were not really there
When will it come back
Answer me
The one you say is like home
Last night you told me a story
It seemed like lies, I’m so sorry
I couldn't say it on the phone
But when will it come back
When will it come back
Oh
These lyrics seem to express a sense of restlessness and feeling unsure of oneself. The mention of running towards the ocean suggests a desire for escape or a need to find clarity. The singer then admits to running out of things to say, possibly indicating a creative block or a lack of inspiration. The mention of "last poems were not really there" further emphasizes this.
The following lines shift to a conversation with someone, possibly a partner or close friend, who mentions a different house that is described as feeling like home. The singer expresses a desire to go there and mentions a story that was heard but couldn't be conveyed over the phone. This could suggest a longing for connection or a need for a change of environment.
The repeated phrase "When will it come back" speaks to a sense of anticipation for something, perhaps inspiration or a feeling of belonging. Overall, the lyrics seem to touch on themes of uncertainty, longing, and seeking connection.

In my loneliness
When you're gone and I'm all by myself
And I need your caress
I just think of you
And the thought of you holding me near
Makes my loneliness soon disappear
Though you're far away
I have only to close my eyes
And you are back to stay
I just close my eyes
And the sadness that missing you brings
Soon is gone and this heart of mine sings
Yes I love you so
And that for me is all I need to know
I will wait for you
Til the sun falls from out of the sky
For what else can I do
I will wait for you meditating
How sweet life will be
When you come back to me

In my loneliness, when you're gone and I'm all by myself and I need your caress
I just think of you, and the thought of you holding me near
Makes my loneliness soon disappear.
Though you're far away, I have only to close my eyes and you are back to stay
I just close my eyes and the sadness that missing you brings
Soon is gone and this heart of mine sings
Yes I love you so, and that for me is all I need to know
I will wait for you till the sun falls from out of the sky, for what else can I do
I will wait for you, meditating how sweet life will be when you come back to me
