Lighthouse
Guided by Love: A Journey through Nature and Trust
Lyrics
Through the trees, we walk
Walking through the trees, creating our own path.
Make our own path, we talk
Engaging in conversation while walking.
Of things we thought we believed
Discussing beliefs and thoughts we once held.
Oh the bugs, how they bite
Noting the discomfort of bugs biting.
Oh the leaves, how they might
Acknowledging the potential harm from leaves, possibly poison ivy.
Poison us with ivy
A metaphorical reference to the toxicity of certain thoughts.
In our minds resides not a single doubt
Confident in the absence of doubt in our minds.
That you can see our love
Believing that our love is visible to others.
From the top of the lighthouse
Highlighting the visibility of love from a high vantage point, like a lighthouse.
I was told by the man
Referring to advice received from a person near the speaker's bed.
Who sits at the foot of my bed
The person provides coordinates, possibly guidance in life.
Coordinates to which he led
The speaker feels reassured and free from fears.
He touched my arm, made it clear
A physical touch emphasizing clarity and comfort.
Dissolving all my fears
Overcoming fears and uncertainties through connection.
This is what we need
Expressing a need for the discussed reassurance and connection.
I can only imagine what you think of me
Acknowledging uncertainty about the other person's opinion.
But I'm willing to trust you
Expressing willingness to trust the other person despite uncertainties.
I don't have to imagine what I think of you
Confident in positive feelings towards the other person.
But trusting love is what good lovers do
Highlighting the importance of trust in a loving relationship.
We ascend up the stairs
Moving upwards, possibly symbolizing progress in the relationship.
Spiral up, the light glares
The light becomes intense, possibly representing clarity or revelation.
And you don't look so sure anymore
The other person appears unsure at this point.
I know what I should see
The speaker knows what should be seen but uncertainty lingers.
I think I see it behind the trees
Perceiving something significant behind metaphorical "trees" or obstacles.
Follow my finger, you disagree
Encouraging the other person to see what the speaker sees.
In my mind resides not a single doubt
Confident in the clarity of the speaker's mind.
That I can see our love
Reiterating the visibility of love from the top of the metaphorical lighthouse.
From the top of the lighthouse
Reaffirming the speaker's perspective on love.
I can see our love
Repeating the assertion of love's visibility.
From the top of the lighthouse
-Can't you see it too?
Inviting the other person to see the love as well.
Can't you see it too?
Repeating the invitation to see the love.
Can't you see it too?
-Can't you see it too?
