La chanson évoque la douleur et la solitude que ressent une femme nommée Shirley, qui cache ses larmes alors que le temps passe. Elle fait face à des pertes et des attentes, montrant un besoin profond de soutien et d’amitié. Les paroles parlent d'un désir de sauver les âmes perdues de la souffrance, d’unir ceux qui doutent et d’attendre des temps meilleurs, symbolisés par le printemps. Dans ce contexte, il est question des relations qui se perdent avec les années et des blessures laissées par la guerre ou la vie en général. Le ton est empreint d'espoir, évoquant la lumière que peuvent apporter l'amour et l'amitié, malgré les épreuves.
