Keep Me With You
Eternal Love Unveiled: Keep Me With You by Jordan Robertson
Lyrics
Like the leaves of the rootless tree
Comparing the fleeting nature of leaves on a rootless tree to the distance the person has flown away.
You fly too far away from me
Expressing the distance the person has traveled, feeling far from the speaker.
And as fast as puddles turn to streams
Referencing how things change swiftly, like puddles turning into streams, possibly indicating the rapid changes in their relationship.
You'll never know how much you mean to me
The person may never understand the depth of emotion the speaker holds for them.
You'll never know how much you mean to me
Reiterating the sentiment of the person's unawareness of their significance to the speaker.
Though things try and tear us apart
Despite adversities, the bond remains strong.
You're holding more than half of my heart
Highlighting the person's substantial place in the speaker's heart.
So I'll pick up my favorite five stones
Metaphorically gathering stones to create a stable, secure space for the person in the speaker's life.
And build you a place to call home with me
Expressing commitment to providing a home and security for the person.
Yeah I'll build you a place to call home with me

Oh you will never know how much I love you

You will never know

So I will try and find the words to keep you here in my arms

I could never let a thing do you any harm
Commitment to protecting the person from harm.
And from that first day when you used all of your charms to keep me with you
Referencing the person's captivating nature since the beginning of their relationship.
Like the sunshine lights up the moon
Comparing the person's effect on the speaker to the illumination provided by the sunshine to the moon.
You came and lit up the room
Highlighting how the person brings brightness and positivity into the speaker's life.
And with a smile I cannot lose
