I Said
Embracing Uncertainty: A Journey of Love and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Summer, lake, peninsula
Reference to a specific time and place – Summer at a lake on a peninsula.
We laid out on the lawn
Describes a shared moment of lying on the lawn.
I was drunk and buried in your arms, your arms
Expresses a feeling of being intoxicated and emotionally connected.
You were staring at the sky
Describes the partner looking at the sky, possibly lost in thought.
I asked you if we're home
Asking the partner about their sense of home.
Said you've never had one that you've known
Partner's response indicating a lack of a known home.
I said, let me know if you think this is enough
Main speaker expressing a desire for clarity in the relationship.
I said, everything doesn't always have to cut
Stating that not everything has to be difficult or painful.
You've been drowning in your own head
Indicating the partner's struggle with inner thoughts.
Always been the one to doubt it
Acknowledging a history of doubt in the partner.
This time you know I'll prove you...
Committing to proving the partner wrong this time.
Summer, lake, peninsula

We'll miss you in the fall
Expressing a sense of loss or separation in the fall.
Wondered if we'd get passed it all
Questioning the possibility of overcoming challenges.
At night we'd stare up at the sky
Reflecting on shared moments of contemplating the sky at night.
And wonder if we're home
Repeating the inquiry about the sense of home.
Said you never had one that you've known
Reiteration of not having a known home.
That you've know
Emphasizing the partner's lack of a defined home.
I said, let me know if you think this is enough
Repeating the desire for clarity in the relationship.
I said, everything doesn't always have to cut
Reaffirming that not everything needs to be painful.
You've been drowning in your own head

Recalling the partner's tendency to doubt.
This time you know I'll prove you wrong
Promising to prove the partner wrong this time.
