Night Gallery

Written by S. Nicks
 

Well, every day I search to find a new way
Some new thing to say, something to make you stay
Something that might mean something to you
Something...

Within my weariless search
Oh, there is no company
Down the road, I move by myself
Say you stood in her gallery

Night gallery
You stood in her gallery
In the night gallery
In the night gallery
What did you find
In the night gallery
An answer to me?

And the paintings on the wall, she says "There it is...
If you look hard enough"
Nothing more that I can really say to you
Nothing but the way I love you so much

Night gallery
So much...
In the night gallery
Say to me
Just tell me to go home
Night gallery
Maybe really know
Night gallery
Something in my heart
Night gallery

 

WEBMISTRESS speculates:

This song is interesting in its analogy of love as an art gallery - how the answers are revealed like paintings on the wall, because words themselves cannot convey them. And what does she mean by paintings on the wall? I think she's talking about them like the expression "the writing on the wall" - something that's obvious even if unspoken.
