Run to Me
Embrace Tomorrow's Light: A Song of Healing by Clay Aiken
Lyrics
Don't, you don't have to save my life
Expressing that there's no obligation to rescue or protect.
No, you're not ready I can feel it
Sensing that the person is not emotionally prepared for something.
Outside its raining but I'll just go home
Despite the external rain, choosing to return home.
Someday your heart will just let him go
Anticipating a future where the heart will let go of someone.
As soon as you get that feeling
Referring to a specific emotional sensation.
You can start to live again
Encouraging the person to start living again when feeling a positive emotion.
As soon as the worst is over
After overcoming difficulties, life improves.
You can make it all make sense
When everything becomes clear and meaningful.
Right now I can't give you want you need
Acknowledging the inability to provide current needs.
As soon as you get that feeling
Reiterating the idea of running to the speaker when experiencing a specific feeling.
Run to me
Emphasizing the invitation to seek support and refuge.
Hush, you don't have to say a word
Advising silence, implying understanding without words.
Trust, I'm not going to hate you for it
Assuring that there won't be resentment for a certain action.
Feels like my touch only brings back the pain
Suggesting that the speaker's touch may trigger painful memories.
Someday those memories will fade away
Believing that memories of pain will diminish over time.
As soon as you get that feeling
Encouraging the person to embrace positive emotions for a fresh start.
You can start to live again
After overcoming challenges, one can begin to truly live.
As soon as the worst is over
When the worst is behind, life's complexities become clear.
You can make it all make sense
Finding meaning and coherence in everything.
Right now I can't give you want you need
Acknowledging the current inability to fulfill desires.
As soon as you get that feeling
Repeating the idea of seeking comfort when experiencing a particular feeling.
Run to me
Reiterating the invitation to run to the speaker in times of need.
