For Good
Eternal Love Unveiled: June Rosewell's Melodic TaleLyrics
Cause you had your birthday and two hours later
Celebrating your birthday, shortly after which
I caught a cheap plane ride to see the mountainsides
Took a budget-friendly flight to witness scenic mountains
I love you
Expressing love
And I was afraid then of losing affection
Fearing the potential loss of affection
Like pencil to paper the lead seems to wear thin
Using a metaphor, expressing the vulnerability of emotions
I know you
Understanding and knowing the person deeply
So put me in a box wrap it tightly
Metaphorically suggesting confinement, seeking emotional security
And hold me when I'm weak say you're staying for good
Yearning for emotional support and commitment
I know that we could
Believing in the potential of a lasting relationship
Took you to my favorite tree in the winter
Shared a special place during winter
To show you the knots in the bark
Showcasing the unique features of a favorite tree
How I see myself in them
Identifying oneself with the imperfections represented in the tree's bark
And I was aware then of flaws in creation
Acknowledging flaws in the world
And bore you as witness to those that I cherish
Making the person a witness to cherished aspects of life
To hold them
Emphasizing the importance of holding onto those cherished things
So put me in a box wrap it tightly
Reiterating the desire for emotional security
And hold me when I'm weak say you're staying for good
Seeking assurance and commitment for a lasting relationship
I know that we could
Expressing confidence in the potential of a lasting connection
Cause I feel like a kid
Feeling youthful and joyful
And I'm giddy and warm
Experiencing excitement and warmth
And I don't hate my mouth
Appreciating oneself, especially in the context of love
When you look at my lips
Positive feelings when the person gazes at the speaker's lips
And I still find your hair
Still finding remnants of the person in everyday activities
When I'm making my bed
Connecting with the person's presence even when making the bed
And my cheeks get all red
Blushing, a physical manifestation of strong emotions
Like the shine of the sun
Comparing the intensity of emotions to the shine of the sun
Like the candle is lit
Metaphorically, the warmth and glow of a lit candle
So put me in a box wrap it tightly
Repetition of the desire for emotional security
And look me in the eye like it's last May
Intense eye contact reminiscent of a significant moment in the past
And hold me when I'm weak say you're staying for good
Reiterating the need for emotional support and commitment
Say you're staying for good
Affirmation of a long-term commitment
