This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
My love, I'll wait for you
Will you wait for me?
Mmm-mmm-mmm
For now, I'll make believe
I'm a knight, riding to your castle
Mmm-mmm-mmm
I'm almost there
I went to a hillside
Laid down with the stars
I heard a cricket's love song
But nothing of you
Laid awake countless nights thinking
What you might be like
Out of an ocean of faces
Have I met your eyes?
Will you wait for me?
Mmm-mmm-mmm
For now, I'll make believe
I'm a knight, riding to your castle
Mmm-mmm-mmm
I'm almost there
I went to a hillside
Laid down with the stars
I heard a cricket's love song
But nothing of you
Laid awake countless nights thinking
What you might be like
Out of an ocean of faces
Have I met your eyes?

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
how has no one posted a comment? ive had their album for awhile and ive never listened to this song, but its beautiful.
Seems to me that this song is about someone looking for the love of their life, asking them to wait for him. And in the last line, he wonders if they could be someone he's already met or even just seen in a crowd somewhere without realizing.
Lyrics for the Elementals version:
My love, I'll wait for you Will you wait for me? Mmm-mmm-mmm
For now, I'll make believe I'm a knight, riding to your castle Mmm-mmm-mmm
I'm almost there
I went to a hillside Laid down with the stars I heard a cricket's love song But nothing of you
Laid awake countless nights thinking What you might be like Out of an ocean of faces Have I met your eyes?
[Female singer]: My love, I'll wait for you Will you come for me? Mmm-mmm-mmm
I know a place for us Where the silvery moon meets the meadow Mmm-mmm-mmm
You'll find me there
I went to a hillside (I went through the meadow) Laid down with the stars (Alone in my head) I heard a cricket's love song (In my heart a melody) But nothing of you (Longing to sing)
Laid awake countless nights thinking (I spent my life dreaming) What you might be like (What you might be like) Out of an ocean of faces (When I woke up) I met your eyes (I met your eyes)
I love this song, I only wished it was longer.
To me this song is of a guy, trusting in God and waiting for his future wife, although they may have not even met or maybe they have, he loves her and will forever love her.
To me this is love, and I believe that we should all do this.....is it possible to love someone before you even met them? I believe so.
