I Know
Unlocking Emotions: Henriette Linja's Poetic Revelation
Lyrics
I know, I am not an open door
Expressing awareness that they are not easily accessible or open emotionally.
But I know that there’s a key that you can look for
Recognizing that there's a way for others to connect or understand them.
I know, I speak up infrequently
Acknowledging a tendency to speak up or communicate less frequently.
But I know that I will be at ease eventually
Belief that they will eventually find comfort or peace within themselves.
Cause when you ask me what you think that we should do
When asked for advice or input, deflecting and turning the question back to the other person.
And then I turn around and point it back at you
Desire to avoid attention or scrutiny, wishing to disappear.
I wanna hide away never to be seen again
Expressing a wish to escape and not be visible anymore.
And when you look at me expecting me to speak
Feeling pressured to speak or respond when looked at expectantly.
And then I close my mouth all so quietly
Choosing to stay silent despite the expectation to speak.
I wanna run away never to be seen again
Desire to flee from a situation or connection, wishing to vanish.
I know, that it hasn’t been that long
Acknowledging a recent duration of time, possibly referring to a relationship or connection.
But I know that it is in your arms that I belong
Belief that they belong and find comfort in the arms of the person they're addressing.
I know, that I want to see some more
Expressing a desire for more experiences or moments.
And I know that it is with you I want to explore
Wishing to explore and share experiences specifically with the addressed person.
Cause when we talk about the things you used to do
Discussing past and future activities or experiences.
And then we talk about the things we want to do
Desiring to hold onto the person closely after these conversations.
I wanna hold you close and never let you go again
Yearning to be emotionally close and never let go.
And when you hold my hand and give a little squeeze
Feeling affection when physically connected, wanting to reciprocate.
And then I turn around you’re smiling back at me
Feeling joy when realizing the other person's response.
I wanna kiss your lips and never let you go again
Desire to express affection through a kiss and hold onto the person.
I want to hold you close and never let you go
Reiterating the wish to hold the person closely and never let go.
I want to kiss your lips ‘til we can’t speak no more
Expressing a desire to kiss passionately until speech becomes unnecessary.
I want to have someone to call when I am on the floor
Seeking someone to rely on during difficult times.
I hope your smile will never make me cry
Hope that the person's happiness will never cause pain.
And that you’ll always know that you are on my mind
Assurance that the person will always be on their mind.
I wanna feel you close and never let you go again
Desire to maintain physical closeness and not let go.
