Stars
Embrace Vulnerability, Become Stars
Lyrics
Knock on my door, boy come home
Inviting someone to come home with a knock on the door.
You stay in my head
Expressing that the person is always on the singer's mind.
Lay in my arms, why won't you?
Desire for physical closeness and intimacy.
It's been way too long, what you waiting on?
Questioning the delay and urging the person to take action.
'Cause I've been here, learning what the memories won't do
Reflecting on past experiences and what memories can't fulfill.
See, I need you and baby I need to
Expressing a need for the person and a desire for vulnerability.
Let down my guard and give you my scars
Willingness to be open and share emotional scars.
Open up my heart
Offering to open up emotionally and be vulnerable.
We could be stars
Repetition of the idea that they could achieve greatness together.
We could be stars
-We could be stars
-Rap on my window, come home
Asking someone to come home with a rap on the window.
It's been a while, so stick around, why don't you?
Expressing the longing for the person to stay around.
Till the end of time, say that you'll be mine
Expressing commitment and the desire for a lasting relationship.
An uphill climb, fighting what the heart really wants to do
Acknowledging the challenges in following one's heart.
See, I need you and sometimes we need to
Reiterating the need for the person and the necessity of authenticity.
Shed our facade and be just who we are
Advocating for dropping pretenses and being true to oneself.
All broken and torn, then we could be stars
Embracing imperfections, suggesting they could achieve greatness.
Oh, we could be stars
Repetition emphasizing the potential for greatness together.
We could be stars
-We could be stars
-Piercing lights in the dark make the galaxy ours
Describing a shared experience of conquering challenges.
Kingdom right where we are
Expressing a sense of ownership over a shared kingdom.
Shining bright as a morning, you'll never be lonely
Describing a bright and positive future together.
Just promise you'll love me, I'm never too far
Requesting a promise of love and closeness.
And we'll never part
Emphasizing the commitment to stay together.
And we could be stars
Reiterating the potential for greatness as a couple.
Oh, we could be stars
Repetition reinforcing the idea of achieving greatness together.
We could be stars
-Oh, we could be stars, just find way to get home
Expressing a desire for the person to find a way back home.
There's space in my heart, open arms for you to run to
Offering emotional space and openness for the person.
Baby, close your eyes and take the leap to make-believe in fairytales
Encouraging a leap into a world of imagination and fairytales.
I'll meet you there, oh yeah, I'll fall too
Expressing a willingness to take the same leap for love.
See I've wanted you here, all along but my fear
Admitting a long-standing desire for the person despite fear.
Just keeps haunting, me won't let me go
Acknowledging persistent fear hindering the expression of love.
So it's hard to say I love you
Expressing difficulty in saying "I love you" due to fear.
We could be stars
Repetition of the idea that they could achieve greatness together.
Oh, we could be stars
-We could be stars
-We could be stars
Reiteration of the potential to achieve greatness as a couple.
