Four Loves
Unraveling Love's Mystery: Charlie Bruber's 'Four Loves' Exploration
Lyrics
Before doubt
Anticipating uncertainty or hesitation
Sets in
Before hesitation takes hold
My mind craves
Expressing a strong desire to move forward
To step
Wishing to go beyond established limits
Out of bounds
Yearning to break free from constraints
See through this day
Reflecting on the current moment
To other places
Desiring to explore other places
You may be
Considering the possibility of the presence of someone
We cope with problems
Dealing with personal challenges
Of our own
Acknowledging individual struggles
Easy to push aside
Acknowledging the ease of avoiding problems
It always returns
Recognition that challenges persist despite avoidance
To you I am
Describing a perception of oneself to someone else
Nothing more
Acknowledging a limited role in someone's life
Than a moments envy
Being only a fleeting source of admiration
Maybe I'm just blue
Possibly feeling melancholic or sad
No time allows
No specific time allows for certain experiences
Four loves
Reference to four different types of love
Not a time
No specific time for understanding or realization
You can see now
Clarity or comprehension not yet achieved
And then I crumble
Feeling emotionally vulnerable
As you reveal yourself
Reacting to the revelation of someone's true self
Do we ever know
Questioning the depth of self-awareness
The signs besides inside us?
Uncertainty about recognizing internal signs
What is this cycle?
Pondering the repetitive nature of a cycle
Where is our place?
Searching for one's place or purpose
Can it just be nothing?
Contemplating the possibility of insignificance
In the clouds
Imagining a state of confusion or disarray
I fall apart
Experiencing emotional breakdown or disintegration
Do I ride with you
Deciding whether to go along with someone
Or ride at all?
Questioning the choice to engage in a journey
Accept the thought
Acknowledging a particular thought or idea
I'll never know you
Accepting the impossibility of truly understanding someone
Our place is
Specifying a location or state after death
Somewhere after death
Reiterating the ease of ignoring challenges
Easy to push aside
Recognition that challenges persist despite avoidance
It always returns
Challenges returning to the forefront of consciousness
To you I am
Describing a perception of oneself to someone else
Nothing more
Acknowledging a limited role in someone's life
Than a moment in time
Being a fleeting moment in the grander scheme of time
Maybe I'm still blue
Possibly still feeling melancholic or sad
No time allows
No specific time allows for certain experiences
Four loves
Reference to four different types of love
Not a time
No specific time for understanding or realization
You can see now
Clarity or comprehension not yet achieved
