Never Got Away
Unveiling Hearts: A Love that Endures
Lyrics
If I open the door to my homeless heart
Expressing vulnerability by opening up emotionally.
Would you stay for a night?
Asking if the person would commit to spending a night together.
Or maybe 10,000 more in a row or the rest of your life?
Questioning if the commitment could extend to a long-term relationship or a lifetime.
If I plant you a field of every flower I know
Metaphorically asking if the person would nurture and support her efforts.
Would you help them to grow?
Seeking assurance that the person would contribute positively to her life.
Would you be like the sunshine after the rain or the bitter cold?
Questioning if the person would be consistently supportive or bring hardship.
Oh, baby, say you'll stay
Requesting a commitment to staying in the relationship.
Cause I ain't got anymore love left to waste
Expressing that there's no more love to waste due to past experiences.
If you stay, maybe you could be the one that never got away
Hoping the person could be the one for a lasting relationship.
Would you open your world like a window to me?
Asking if the person would share their life and experiences.
I've been missing the view
Expressing a longing to see things differently through the other person's perspective.
I've been careless before, so be careful with me
Requesting caution due to previous experiences.
I've got too much to lose
Stating that there's much at stake in this relationship.
Oh, baby, say you'll stay
Reiterating the desire for commitment in the relationship.
Cause I ain't got anymore love left to waste
Reinforcing the lack of leftover love due to past hardships.
If you stay, maybe you could be the one that never got away
Hope that the person might become the enduring love.
I need your love like the desert needs water
Expressing a deep need for the person's love akin to a vital necessity.
Thunder and lightning and white hurricanes
Using powerful natural metaphors to emphasize the intensity of this need.
Say you'll stay cause I ain't got anymore love left to waste
Reiterating the plea for commitment due to depleted emotional resources.
If you stay, maybe you could be the one that never got away
Expressing hope that the person will stay and become a lasting love.
