Moonflower
Motel Connection Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eat one tear of your lover
Then recall
That year
The games
The sun
The day
You got the world
All in your hands
To touch and play

It was so many tears ago
A day of Spring you won't forget
Another tear can go by,
Anyway is all so far, Lord.
Now see her, lover, lose her pride
And everything is running wild




A smell of love, a shot, Lord
Know the way, you know the way, Lord

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Motel Connection's "Moonflower" seem to invoke memories of long lost love and a fleeting youth. The first line "Eat one tear of your lover" is a metaphorical representation of holding on to the essence and memory of someone you loved deeply. It is a way of preserving the memory of the love that once was. The next few lines "Then recall, That year, The games, The sun, The day" invite the listener to remember and reminisce about the memories of a time when happiness and love were ever-present.


The second stanza, "It was so many tears ago, A day of Spring you won't forget, Another tear can go by, Anyway is all so far, Lord" suggests that time has passed, and the ephemeral nature of youth and love has slipped away. The mention of a "day of Spring" hints at the coming and going of seasons and time. However, despite the passage of time, the feeling still remains: "A smell of love, a shot, Lord, know the way, you know the way, Lord."


Essentially, "Moonflower" is a song about holding onto memories of lost love, even if the memories start to fade. It's a message to hold onto the essence of love itself and to never forget how it feels or the important role it played in one's life.
