Head to Toe
Embracing Imperfection: A Journey of Love and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Take this broken body
Expressing a sense of physical brokenness or vulnerability.
I’ve got scars and I am missing parts
Acknowledging past wounds and the absence of certain aspects.
But I’m not scared for you to see me like this
Being open and unafraid to show imperfections to someone special.
‘Cause I know that you’re safe shores for my shipwrecked heart
Trusting the person to be a safe haven for the emotionally wounded.
Calm this troubled mind
Desiring mental peace and tranquility.
I just want to shut off ‘cause it gets too dark sometimes
Expressing the need for escape when facing emotional darkness.
I’ll let your love be my guiding light
Seeking guidance and support from the person's love.
Peeling back the darkness remind me that you’re not afraid of what you’ll find
Allowing vulnerability to be exposed, trusting in the acceptance of flaws.
So I’ll hold onto you
Committing to the person for emotional support.
Cause it’s you I’m finally coming home to
Declaring the person as the place of comfort and belonging.
It’s taken me longer than it should I know
Acknowledging a delayed realization of the importance of the relationship.
But I’m here now and I want to be yours from head to toe
Expressing a desire to be completely and intimately connected.
Catch me I’m stumbling through
Admitting to personal struggles and seeking assistance.
So many walls I just want to fall into you
Desiring a deep connection and intimacy with the person.
Your steady hand and your sure heart
Valuing the stability and certainty provided by the person.
Are all that I needed I just didn’t know it at the start
Realizing the importance of the person in one's life.
‘Cause I was hollow I was feeling so hollow
Describing a previous emotional emptiness or void.
My hopes were tipping over falling like dominoes
Reflecting on past struggles and challenges.
Life was a game I couldn’t figure out how to play
Portraying life as a confusing and challenging game.
You showed me I didn’t have to I could just be myself and stay
Learning that being oneself is enough in the presence of the person.
So I’ll hold onto you
Reaffirming the commitment to the person for support.
Cause it’s you I’m finally coming home to
Reiterating the person as the place of comfort and belonging.
It’s taken me longer than it should I know
Acknowledging the time taken to fully appreciate the relationship.
But I’m here now and I want to be yours from head to toe
Expressing the desire for complete intimacy with the person.
You find beauty in all of these failures of mine
Recognizing the person's ability to find beauty in flaws and failures.
Told me if I hid them then my past would leave me blind
Advice to confront and accept one's past instead of hiding it.
So I’ll be bold and I’ll stand tall
Choosing courage over fear, opting to face risks and challenges.
‘Cause I’d rather risk and fall than not risk at all
Embracing vulnerability and the possibility of failure in pursuit of love.
So I’ll hold onto you
Reaffirming commitment and trust in the person.
Cause it’s you I’m finally coming home to
Declaring the person as the final destination and source of comfort.
And I am stronger than I thought I know
Realizing personal strength and growth within the relationship.
But I’m here now and I want to be yours from head to toe
Expressing the desire for complete and intimate connection.
I’m here now and I want to be yours from head to toe
Affirming the commitment to be entirely and intimately theirs.
I’m here now and I am yours from head to toe
Reiterating full commitment and belonging from head to toe.
