There You Are
Journey of Redemption: Embracing Love and Healing in 'There You Are'
Lyrics
Do you remember the time
Reflecting on a past moment
Oh you were young, you were young
Recalling a youthful period
How you would open your eyes
Remembering opening eyes with anticipation
And sing hallelujah
Expressing joy and gratitude
You'd say, this is the day, I will rejoice
Anticipating a positive day with rejoicing
Oh how you loved me then
Recalling a time of affection
Do you remember the end
Reflecting on a past ending
Oh you were young, you were young
Recalling a youthful period (repeated)
When you were taught how to hide
Learning to conceal emotions
And they turned you against me
Experiencing betrayal and manipulation
How you measured in fear of being betrayed
Fearing betrayal and measuring trust
Oh how I missed you
Expressing longing for a missed connection
I was there at the beginning
Being present at the start
I'll be there at the end
Commitment to be there until the end
Do you remember the scars
Recalling emotional wounds
All the control, the control
Addressing issues of control
Girl, let me look at your arms
Expressing a desire to comfort and hold
I just wanna hold you
Yearning to provide support
You keep fighting with me
Acknowledging ongoing conflicts
And I know you're sad
Acknowledging sadness but promising not to leave
I'm not gonna leave you
Commitment to be there from the beginning to the end (repeated)
I was there at the beginning
Being present at the start (repeated)
I'll be there at the end
Commitment to be there until the end (repeated)
You keep running, but I'm running with you
Continuing to run alongside despite challenges
Holding your hand
Physically supporting and guiding
Do you remember the swell
Recalling growth and shared experiences
Oh, how we grew, how we grew
Reflecting on personal and shared development
When you broke open the world
Breaking open perspectives and understanding
And learned how to hear me
Learning to listen and understand
Blood and water flowed down
Symbolic imagery of shared experiences
And into the earth
Symbolic representation of shared connection with the earth
Oh how I love you
Expressing deep love
And I forgive you
Offering forgiveness
I was there at the beginning
Being present at the start (repeated)
I'll be there at the end
Commitment to be there until the end (repeated)
You keep running, but I'm running with you
Continuing to run alongside despite challenges (repeated)
Holding your hand
Physically supporting and guiding (repeated)
There you are
Direct acknowledgment of the person's presence
There you are
Reiteration of the person's presence
I was there at the beginning, I'll be there at the end
Commitment to be there from the beginning to the end (repeated)
You keep running, running over again
Repeating the theme of running together
There you are
Direct acknowledgment of the person's presence (repeated)
There you are
Reiteration of the person's presence (repeated)
There you are
-I was there at the beginning, I'll be there at the end
Commitment to be there from the beginning to the end (repeated)
