Lyrics
If you see me speak without words
Communication without words
Know that I am speaking of the wind
Reference to the wind as a metaphor
And if you see my words like wind
Words possessing the characteristics of wind
Know that soft tongues cut through stone
Gentle words have immense power
And if you see my tongue like stone
Speech carrying the weight of wisdom
Know it's wisdom lies in silence
Wisdom found in silence
And if you see my wisdom in silence
Wisdom is evident in silence
Then with you I will always be
Connection assured through understanding silence
And if you doubt my true love is true
Assertion of true love despite doubts
Just see how you have no chains upon your hands
Freedom symbolized by absence of chains
And if you see you wear no chains
Realization of being unbound
You are free like poor men
Freedom akin to that of the less fortunate
And if you see your freedom in being poor
Contentment in the simplicity of freedom
Pleased you'll be with the treasure of your mind
Contentment found in mental richness
And if you're pleased with the treasure of your mind
Appreciation of inner wealth
Then with you I will always be
Connection assured through inner satisfaction
So come closer my love, to me
Invitation to intimacy
You are closer than you can ever see
Presence felt beyond mere sight
You live in my heart
Existence within the heart
That's where you'll always be
Permanence within the heart
And if you wonder how it is that I love
Explanation of love through sunset
Just watch the sun set slip away
Observation of the transient nature of life
And as you watch that sun slip away
Acceptance of unseen aspects
Know some things are better left unseen
Recognition of hidden truths
And if you know some things go unseen
Acknowledgment of the unknown
Then night shall carry you in her arms
Night symbolizing comfort and solace
And if you feel I carry you in my arms
Feeling of protection and care
Then with you I will always be
Assurance of constant presence through care
With you I will always be.
Repeated assurance of continuous presence
