Blue Hour
The Babe Rainbow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We could spend our whole life waiting
At the age of innocence
Baby what are you doing to me?
It's a
It's a time of love but the night is still so lonely
Any day any hour now
Looks like you're walking on magic dust
Blu-ueee
Hou-rrrr
You and the blue hour
Twenty page our odyssey
Become a stranger to me
Love is old and love is blue
But love is yellow too
You don't, you don't hesitate
When you reach the moment
Like any colour at the dawn
The enemies of love will fall
Blu-ueeee
Hou-rrrrr
If there be nothing new
The lyrics of The Babe Rainbow's song Blue Hour present a contemplation of love and time. The opening line, "When the sky is blue, time hesitates," creates a sense of suspension, implying that the moment is significant and should not be rushed. The second line, "We could spend our whole life waiting," echoes the sentiment that the moment is precious and that we should not take it for granted. The mention of the "age of innocence" adds a layer of nostalgia to the lyrics, hinting at a yearning for a simpler time. The line "Baby, what are you doing to me?" conveys a sense of vulnerability and desire, indicating that the moment holds great significance for the singer.
As the song progresses, the lyrics continue to touch on the themes of love and time. The line "It's a time of love but the night is still so lonely" juxtaposes the hopeful nature of love with the loneliness that often accompanies it. The lines "Twenty-page our odyssey, become a stranger to me" suggest that the journey of love can be long and complex, and that it may lead to unexpected places. The juxtaposition of "Love is old and love is blue, but love is yellow too" is an interesting one, hinting that love is both classic and timeless (blue), and yet also vibrant and new (yellow).
The final stanza of the lyrics seems to bring the song full circle, with a repetition of the opening line "When the sky is blue, time hesitates," followed by the declaration "If there be nothing new." This line seems to suggest that, while the moment may feel significant, ultimately time moves on, and we must find new ways to experience and appreciate love.
