Everything I Need
Discovering Love's Clarity: Everything I Need by Joe Little
Lyrics
I don't understand
I am confused or puzzled.
What are we chasing
What are we pursuing or trying to achieve?
Obsessing over feelings that we
Fixating on emotions from the past.
Used to have
Reflecting on emotions that are no longer present.
Standing in the sun
Being in a sunny place.
Staring at the ocean
Gazing at the ocean.
And thinking I could lose it if I
Contemplating the possibility of losing something important.
Lost this
Feeling the fear of losing what is valued.
But when I met you
Referring to the moment of meeting someone.
You made it so clear
The person being addressed clarified something.
I've got everything that I need right here
Expressing contentment with having everything necessary.
I've got everything that I need when I've got you
Reiterating the satisfaction of having everything with the presence of someone special.
Lying in the sand
Being physically close to the person, engaging in intimacy.
Kissing your shoulder
Expressing affection through a kiss on the shoulder.
It's just another day we'll spend in
Describing a day in an ideal place.
Paradise
Referring to the present situation as paradise.
We're taking it slow
Taking things slowly in the relationship.
The nights are so warm here
Describing warm and pleasant nights.
I wonder how we'll ever get down
Wondering how to return to normalcy from this elevated state.
From being so high
Being in an emotionally elevated state.
Cos when I met you
Referring to the clarity gained from meeting someone.
You made it so clear
Reiterating the clarity provided by the person.
I've got everything that I need right here
Expressing contentment with having everything necessary.
I've got everything that I need when I've got you
Reiterating the satisfaction of having everything with the presence of someone special.
All moments in time
Highlighting the importance of all moments in the relationship.
We've nothing to lose here
Emphasizing that there is nothing to lose in the current situation.
And there's no one I'd rather be with
Declaring a preference for being with a specific person.
In my life
Expressing the significance of the person in the speaker's life.
Cos when I met you
Referring to the clarity gained from meeting someone.
You made it so clear
Reiterating the clarity provided by the person.
I've got everything that I need right here
Expressing contentment with having everything necessary.
I've got everything that I need when I've got you
Reiterating the satisfaction of having everything with the presence of someone special.
