Better Way
Navigating Love's Wilderness: Andrew Combs' Better Way
Lyrics
I was wading in the mire, deep in the mud
I was stuck in a difficult situation, deeply immersed in challenges.
It was sticking to my soles, drowning my love
Problems were clinging to me, overwhelming and drowning my love.
Breathing in words of wisdom from fairweather friends
Receiving advice or guidance from unreliable friends during tough times.
I was dreaming of a better way
Despite difficulties, I held onto the dream of finding a better way.
Found myself like a fire finds folly in the flood
Like a fire discovering its folly in a flood, I felt out of place.
Suffocating just to sit where others stood
Struggling and suffocating to be where others were comfortably situated.
Found your eyes, they were drifting up toward mine
Noticed your gaze, indicating a connection and a potential way out.
You were looking for a better way
You were seeking a better way as well, creating a shared aspiration.
Kristina, my believer
Addressing someone named Kristina, described as a believer, perhaps in the possibility of a better life.
You pinned me down and I've carved out your name
Feeling restrained or influenced by Kristina, with her name becoming a significant part of the experience.
Kristina, my believer
Reiterating Kristina's role as a believer, suggesting a mutual commitment or bond.
I found your love like a river finds its way
Finding love with Kristina, likened to the natural flow of a river.
Sleepless nights we rumbled, tumbled in the dark
Describing restless nights filled with emotional turmoil and uncertainty.
Finally lost within knowing how honest love can start
Discovering the genuine and honest beginnings of love.
Touched your body, I made it all my own
Physical intimacy, making a connection that felt unique and unfamiliar.
And you held me in those unfamiliar ways
Being held in ways that were previously unknown, symbolizing a transformative experience.
Kristina, my believer
Repeating the address to Kristina, emphasizing the connection and commitment.
You pinned me down and I carved out your name
Reiterating the influence of Kristina, with the act of carving out a name suggesting a lasting impact.
Kristina, my believer
Restating Kristina's role as a believer and the deep connection forged.
I found your love like a river finds its way
Expressing the discovery of love in a way that is natural and inevitable, like a river finding its path.
Kristina, my believer
Addressing Kristina again, reinforcing the connection and influence.
You pinned me down and I carved out your name
Highlighting the impact of Kristina, with the act of carving out a name signifying a lasting imprint.
Kristina, my believer
Reiterating Kristina's role as a believer and the profound love that has been found.
I found your love like a river finds its way
Affirming the discovery of love, using the metaphor of a river finding its way.
