I wonder if the name Elijah is a reference to the Biblical prophet who hid in the desert for three years, or is the actual name of a man she is hoping to see; perhaps both?
Maybe I'm pushing it but perhaps the reference to sharks is a vague reference to King Ahab, which sounds like Captain Ahab who sought Moby Dick, or maybe they are just the money pushers behind her recording career.
The line "you're like a party I heard through a wall" -that I suspect may be a direct reference to the Del Amitri song "Heard through a wall". The song of an eager lover who promises to burst into the life of his love and make her heart swoon. As a live performer I'm sure she spends lots of time touring and likely may overhear other lovers through the doors and walls of hotel rooms.
During the seder holiday a special goblet of wine is filled for the prophet Elijah, then the door is opened to allow him to enter and drink; and at every bris a chair is set aside for him. This song is a song of invitation and waiting, of her longing to be with her own personal Elijah.
