Lyrics
So many years
Reflecting on a significant period of time
They have flown right by
Time has passed quickly
Was always searching for the apple of my eye
Always searching for someone special
Never thought the day would come
Didn't anticipate reaching a state of fulfillment
When I would feel so complete
Feeling complete with someone's presence
And now that you've come along
A new person has entered the speaker's life
I've got a reason to believe
Belief and confidence due to the new relationship
Tie me down
Expressing willingness to commit
Tether me to the ground
Desire to be grounded and secure
Keep me here feeling so safe and sound
Feeling safe and protected
All the pain is gone now
Emotional pain has disappeared
Without a trace
No remnants of past suffering
You bring me back to a better place
The new person brings the speaker to a better emotional state
I know that we can stand the test of time
Confidence in the enduring nature of the relationship
I'm a better person when I've got you by my side
Personal improvement with the partner's presence
I used to be a lost cause
Previous state of being lost and incomplete
Drifting around incomplete
Describing a sense of aimlessness
You showed me how to move on
New person guides the speaker to move forward
There's so much that we can achieve
Positive outlook on the potential achievements together
Tie me down
Reiteration of the desire to be anchored
Tether me to the ground
Seeking stability and rootedness
Keep me here feeling so safe and sound
Feeling secure and content
All the pain is gone now
Freedom from emotional pain
Without a trace
No lingering signs of past struggles
You bring me back to a better place
Attributing emotional well-being to the new relationship
Tie me down
Reiteration of the desire to be anchored (repeated theme)
Tether me to the ground
Emphasis on the need for stability (repeated theme)
Keep me here feeling so safe and sound
Contentment and safety in the relationship
Yea all the pain is gone now
Complete absence of emotional pain
Without a trace
Emphasizing the disappearance of past struggles
You bring me back to a better place
Positive impact of the relationship on emotional state
Tie me down
Desire for stability and security (repeated theme)
Tether me to the ground
Reiteration of being grounded and anchored
Keep me here feeling so safe and sound
Continued feeling of safety and contentment
Yea all the pain is gone now
No residual emotional pain
Without a trace
Absence of traces of past difficulties
You bring me back to a better place
Continued positive influence of the relationship
