Here You Are
Discovering Meaning: Embracing the World Within
Lyrics
Here you are
Expressing the presence of the listener.
Wishing the world was yours
Desiring to possess the world.
Not even knowing
Unawareness of the reality that the world is already within reach.
That it is
Highlighting the irony of the previous wish, indicating the listener may already have what they desire.
If I could show you what you mean to me
Expressing a desire to reveal the listener's significance.
If I could show you what I see
Expressing a wish to reveal the speaker's perspective to the listener.
Then you'd know just what the world could be
Suggesting that understanding the listener's value could transform the world.
And you'd see the love from me
Assuring that recognizing the speaker's love would be part of this transformation.
There you are
Acknowledging the listener's significance to the speaker.
Meaning the world to me
Expressing the listener's importance to the speaker.
Not even knowing
Unawareness of the depth of what the listener means to the speaker.
What it means
Acknowledging a lack of understanding regarding the listener's importance.
If I could show you what the world can see
Expressing a desire to reveal the listener's impact on the world.
If you could see the light you shine
Highlighting the listener's positive influence.
Then you'd know why I'm in love with you
Explaining that the listener's radiance is the reason for the speaker's love.
And why I don't know what to do
Expressing a sense of confusion or uncertainty stemming from the intense feelings for the listener.
All my life I've been searching
Reflecting on a lifelong quest or journey.
All my life I've been so lost
Expressing a prolonged period of feeling adrift or without direction.
But there's a light I had to follow
Introducing a metaphorical "light" guiding the speaker.
And that light led me to you
Revealing that the metaphorical light led the speaker to the listener.
And I know I finally found myself
Asserting a newfound self-awareness upon meeting the listener.
The day that I found you
Marking the specific day the speaker discovered themselves through the listener.
Here you are
Reiteration of the listener's desire for ownership of the world.
Wishing the world was your
Repeating the earlier wish with a sense of unawareness.
Not even knowing
Reiterating the lack of awareness regarding the listener's already significant position in the world.
That it is
Reemphasizing the irony of the listener's wish considering their existing importance.
