Gemini
sponge-cola Lyrics

The song "Gemini" by Sponge Cola revolves around being enamored with someone and wanting to get closer to them. The opening lines "Come a little closer, Flicker in flight, We'll have about an inch's space" shows a desire to be near that person, even if it's just a little bit. The singer then talks about how he can feel the other person breathe and wants to know if he's doing everything right or if he's holding onto her too tightly. He also asks if his dreams of being with her forever and making them come true are something that's mutual.

The song then explores the idea of the Gemini, the astrological symbol of twins, and dreams that people can have under the night sky. The lyrics "The vacuous night, Steps aside to give meaning, To Gemini's dreaming" alludes to how the vastness of the night sky can create a sense of purpose and possibility. The singer continues to look for confirmation from the other person in their relationship, wondering if this dream is something that they share, and feels the presence of the other person right next to him as they stand under a starlit sky.

The entire song has a dreamy quality to it that fits with the idea of two people exploring the hazy boundaries between dreams and reality. The chorus is a plea for clarity and confirmation, as both people try to figure out if they're on the same page in this possible relationship. The verses paint a vivid picture of the surroundings, the presence of the other person, and the emotions that come with being so close to someone. The song beautifully blends the themes of longing, love, and the mystical symbolism of the Gemini.
