Lyrics
I used to think that I was strong
The singer believed they were emotionally strong.
I realize now I was wrong
Realization that their previous belief about their strength was incorrect.
'Cause every time I see your face
Seeing the person addressed in the song triggers a strong reaction.
My mind becomes an empty space
The presence of the person causes a mental distraction.
And with you lying next to me
Feeling overwhelmed and challenged to breathe normally when together.
Feels like I can hardly breathe
Expressing difficulty in breathing due to the intensity of emotions.
I close my eyes
A metaphorical action indicating an emotional retreat or vulnerability.
The moment I surrender to you
Accepting and giving in to the influence or power of the addressed person.
Let love be blind
Desiring love to overlook flaws or imperfections.
Innocent and tenderly true
Wishing for a pure and sincere love.
So lead me through tonight
Asking to be guided through the situation by the addressed person.
But please turn out the light
Requesting to dim the surroundings due to emotional vulnerability.
'Cause I'm lost every time I look at you
Expressing a feeling of being lost when looking at the addressed person.
And in the morning when you go
Anticipating separation and seeking reassurance for its reality.
Wake me gently so I'll know
Asking to be gently awakened to confirm the presence of the addressed person.
That loving you was not a dream
Acknowledging that loving the addressed person was a reality, not a fantasy.
And whisper softly what it means to be with me
Desiring to hear reassurances about the significance of the relationship.
Then every moment we're apart
Every moment away feels like an eternity due to emotional attachment.
Will be a lifetime to my heart
Expressing the profound impact of separation on emotions.
I close my eyes
A repetition emphasizing emotional vulnerability.
The moment I surrender to you
Reiterating the act of surrendering emotionally to the addressed person.
Let love be blind
Desiring love to ignore faults and be pure and truthful.
Innocent and tenderly true
Seeking sincere and innocent love from the addressed person.
So lead me through tonight
Requesting guidance through the emotional experience.
But please, please turn out the light
Repetition of the request to dim the surroundings due to emotional vulnerability.
'Cause I'm lost every time I look at you
Feeling lost every time the addressed person is looked at.
Lost every time I look at you
Reiteration of the emotional confusion when looking at the addressed person.
