Daylight
Embracing Love's Resilience: Jacob Bellens' Daylight Revealed
Lyrics
The shades that cover me in mystery and secrecy
The mysterious and secretive aspects that cover the speaker
The ring upon my hand
A symbolic ring on the speaker's hand
The leather boots that walk the dark and narrow snowy streets
Leather boots worn while navigating dark snowy streets
I wear because I can
The speaker wears them simply because they can
I have promised to deliver or at least to try my best
A promise to deliver or try the best without giving up easily
Not give up without a fight
A commitment to not surrender without a fight
But I know that soon the heart that's buried deep inside my chest
A realization that the speaker's hidden heart will eventually end the internal struggle
Will bid the war goodbye
The heart will bid farewell to the war
Like an ocean or a flood of silent teardrops
Comparison of emotions to an ocean or a flood of silent teardrops
The rain will come and wash it all away
An anticipation that rain will come to wash away emotions
The sun will shine upon the hills and treetops
Hope expressed through the metaphor of the sun shining on hills and treetops
But my love will stay the same
Assurance that love will remain unchanged
I will give you everything
A pledge to give everything to a significant other
And stay beside you until the end
A commitment to stay beside the loved one until the end
So often when I find myself in dreams of times to come
Reflections on finding oneself in dreams of the future
I gaze up at the clouds
Gazing at clouds and contemplating the future
It makes me think of where I'll be when all of this is done
Wondering about the speaker's location and purpose after everything is completed
And what it's all about
Questioning the meaning of it all
It mostly makes me break out into laughter
Laughter when no one understands the speaker's words
When no-one understands a word I say
Singing a song for those who want to seize the day
I sing a song that will forever after
The song persists as a legacy for future generations
Be for the ones who want to seize the day
Encouraging others to make the most of their opportunities
Like an ocean or a flood of silent teardrops
Reiteration of emotions as an ocean or a flood of silent teardrops
The rain will come and wash it all away
An expectation that rain will cleanse and purify
The sun will shine upon the hills and treetops
Hope for a bright future, symbolized by the sun on hills and treetops
But my love will stay the same
Reassurance that love remains constant
I will give you everything
A promise to give everything to a loved one
And stay beside you until the end
A commitment to stand by the loved one until the end
Like an ocean or a flood of silent teardrops
Repetition of emotions likened to an ocean or silent teardrops
The rain will come and wash it all away
An acknowledgment that rain will come to wash away troubles
The sun will shine upon the hills and treetops
The anticipation of the sun shining on hills and treetops
But my love will stay the same
Reiteration that love remains unchanged
I will give you everything
A pledge to give everything to a significant other
And stay beside you until the end
A commitment to stay beside the loved one until the end
