Whoa Now

In 'Whoa Now,' Louque delves into the timeless theme of searching for love and the emotional turmoil that accompanies it. The song opens with the phrase 'Everlasting day,' suggesting a sense of timelessness and an ongoing journey. The protagonist is in a state of longing, searching for a connection that seems elusive. The lyrics 'I'm alone today, but the waiting here is not' convey a sense of solitude, yet also a hope that this loneliness is temporary. The repeated plea to 'tell me the way' underscores the desperation and willingness to follow any path that leads to love.

The chorus, with its poignant 'Woah now, have you seen a pretty love she's far away,' captures the essence of distance and separation. The protagonist's love is far away, both physically and emotionally, and there's a palpable hope that she is alright. This distance amplifies the sense of yearning and the fear of losing this love forever. The line 'I love my baby cause she's alright' is a simple yet profound declaration of affection, emphasizing that the love is worth the wait and the pain.

As the song progresses, the lyrics 'From the blind I'm dreaming in, let me relay all your light that leads me in' introduce a metaphor of light and darkness. The protagonist is in a state of blindness, perhaps lost in his own emotions, and seeks the guiding light of his love to find his way. The repeated assurance 'I won't betray, if you won't have me I'll be lost' highlights the depth of his commitment and the fear of being lost without this love. The song concludes with a sense of permanence and dedication, 'My heart is gone, I'm here to stay, forever, forever,' signifying an eternal bond and an unwavering resolve to wait for this love, no matter how long it takes.
