Lyrics
When you throw your arms around me
Expressing the comfort and security felt when embraced
You know that I'll be there
Promising reliability and support in times of need
'Till you were lost in the way you found me
Reflecting on the discovery of each other and staying committed
You know that I'll be there
Reiterating the commitment to be there for the other person
We all need someone just to keep hanging on
Highlighting the universal need for someone to rely on
It's enough to hold you here in my arms
Stating that the speaker's presence is enough for comfort
The light that we share gonna light up the sky
Emphasizing the positive impact of their connection
I sit and I stare as if I don't care
Acknowledging a detached demeanor, possibly to protect
It's just the child in me won't go away
Explaining emotional detachment as a defense mechanism
I beg you to stay this is my prayer
Pleading for the other person to stay, revealing vulnerability
When I was young I was selfish darling I wanted my own way
Admitting past selfishness and desire for independence
You were the shock to the system darling
Describing the partner as a catalyst for change
A chance for sudden sway
Highlighting the transformative impact of the relationship
We all make mistakes I'm all over the place
Acknowledging personal flaws but affirming commitment
But you know that I'll be there in the end
Reassuring that support will be provided until the end
The light that we share gonna light up the sky
Reiterating the positive influence of their connection
I sit and I stare and I don't know why
Expressing confusion about personal feelings and actions
It's just the child in me won't go away
Linking emotional struggles to a lingering inner child
I beg you to stay this is my prayer
Pleading again for the other person to stay
The light that we share gonna light up the sky
Repeating the theme of shared positivity and its impact
I sit and I stare and I don't know why
Reiterating confusion and introspection without clear answers
It's just the child in me won't go away
Connecting emotional challenges to an enduring inner child
I beg you to stay this is my prayer
Renewing the plea for the partner to stay, underscoring importance
The light that we share gonna light up the sky
Emphasizing the continued positive impact of their connection
I sit and I stare and I don't know why
Expressing persistent confusion and introspection
It's just the child in me won't go away
Reiterating the influence of an enduring inner child on emotions
