| A-Ha – Stay On These Roads Lyrics | 5 years ago |
|
Pal wrote many of A-ha’s older songs based on his feelings when his wife Lauren (then his girlfriend) had moved overseas to study. This song is basically about a long distance relationship, he’s saying “stay on these roads” as in don’t give up on the relationship, and we shall meet again. “Old man feels the cold” meaning he feels old and cold without her by his side, “oh baby don’t” probably means don’t cry, “cause I’ve been told stay on these roads” meaning she’s also told him not to give up. “Feel so weak be strong” means have patience. “Winters calling on my home” means winter is coming and it’s cold without her. “Cold has a voice and it talks to me” meaning his loneliness is talking to him. “Stillborn by choice” meaning their relationship has been put on hold by choice. “And it has no need to hold” meaning It won’t be like that forever. “Where joy should reign, these skies restrain” meaning where they should be feeling joy the distance between them is restraining their happiness. “Shadow your love, the voice trails off again” meaning don’t let your love fade and his loneliness will subside. |
