Starframes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been waiting for this day
for so many years, this was really hard to foretell
Fear just moves in on your world
with no clear signs or words
I could tell you anything but I don't know how long it takes
I used to think that you would have succeeded someday I'm just getting my feelings out
You're even better than the girl I conceived from far away I realize that I've never been so close to you
The lyrics of Starframes's song "Close" convey a sense of hesitation and vulnerability while also expressing a deep longing for connection. The singer apologizes for not having much to say, indicating perhaps a lack of confidence or uncertainty about how to express their feelings. They reveal that they've been waiting for this moment for a long time, but that the fear and uncertainty that come with opening up to someone are ever-present.
The lines "Fear just moves in on your world with no clear signs or words / I could tell you anything but I don't know how long it takes" suggest that the singer is aware that their emotions might be overwhelming or difficult for the other person to process. This creates a sense of tension between the desire for intimacy and the fear of rejection or disappointment. The line "I used to think that you would have succeeded someday" hints at a past relationship that didn't work out as planned, further adding to the singer's trepidation.
Despite all this, the singer reveals that they feel closer to the other person than ever before. The line "You're even better than the girl I conceived from far away" suggests that they might have idealized or imagined the other person prior to meeting them, but that the reality surpasses their expectations. The repeated refrain of "I realize that I've never been so close to you" creates a sense of emotional intimacy and closeness that is rare and precious.

Carissimi! Ma c'è modo di trovare we're all in it? Mi é venuta in mente e non riesco a toglieremela dalla testa. Quella che iniziava con "Jane became a dancer, climbing over fences, she understood the way to go...". Grazie xx
