Run to You
Chasing Dreams: Yearning to Run Back to Love
Lyrics
As you take a breath
Reflecting on a moment of anticipation as someone takes a breath.
And start to speak
Expressing the start of communication or dialogue.
And say the thing that I've
Anticipation for the disclosure of something awaited.
Been waiting for
Longing for a specific revelation or confession.
I am made aware
Realization of being unaware or inattentive.
I was asleep
Recognition of being in a state of unawareness or complacency.
And it was just a dream
Acknowledging a previous state as a dream, not reality.
It's time to go
Indication that it's time to resume responsibilities or duties.
To work again
Acknowledging the need to return to work.
Oh what I would give
Expressing a willingness to sacrifice for change.
To leave this all behind
Desire to leave behind current circumstances and run towards someone.
And run to you
Specifically mentioning the act of running towards someone.
As if I had nothing
Expressing a selfless attitude, suggesting a lack of personal gain or loss.
To gain or lose
Emphasizing the simplicity and purity of the desire to run to the person.
But you're gone
Acknowledging the absence of the person being sought.
And we've grown up
Recognition that both individuals have matured or changed.
I guess I didn't love you
Admitting a possible lack of love compared to previous beliefs.
As much as I had thought
Questioning the depth of past feelings.
Every day I lose a little more
Every day brings a gradual loss, with uncertainty about what is diminishing.
Of what, I'm not sure
Uncertain about the nature of the losses experienced daily.
But I'll know when it's gone
Confidence in recognizing the loss when it occurs.
Strangely I
Expressing a change in attitude or emotional state.
No longer care if I
Indifference towards the consequences of leaving everything behind.
Leave this all behind
Reiterating the desire to abandon current circumstances for the person.
And run to you
Repeating the theme of running towards someone with no personal gain or loss.
As if I had nothing
Emphasizing the selfless nature of the act of running to the person.
To gain or lose
Reiterating the simplicity and purity of the desire to run to the person.
But you're gone
Acknowledging the absence of the person being sought.
And we've grown up
Recognition that both individuals have matured or changed.
I guess I didn't love you
Admitting a possible lack of love compared to previous beliefs.
As much as I had thought
Questioning the depth of past feelings.
To leave this all behind
Repeating the desire to leave everything behind for the person.
And run to you
Reiterating the theme of running towards someone with no personal gain or loss.
As if I had nothing
Emphasizing the selfless nature of the act of running to the person.
To gain or lose
Reiterating the simplicity and purity of the desire to run to the person.
But you're gone
Acknowledging the absence of the person being sought.
And we've grown up
Recognition that both individuals have matured or changed.
I guess I didn't love you
Admitting a possible lack of love compared to previous beliefs.
As much as I had thought
Questioning the depth of past feelings.
