Before
Discovering Life's Symphony Through Love
Lyrics
I never knew I was existing
I was unaware of my existence.
Getting by from sun to sun
Living day by day, from sunrise to sunset.
Missing out on what my life
Missed out on the potential of my life.
Someday would become.
Acknowledging that my life would eventually unfold.
There were friends and there
Had both friends and lovers in my life.
Were lovers
Various relationships and connections.
There were times I really cared
There were moments when I genuinely cared.
And every now and then someone
Occasionally, someone I thought I wanted was there.
I thought I always wanted there
Reflecting on desired companionship.
I laughed and dreamed, I moved
Laughed, dreamed, moved, and experienced a beating heart.
And my heart beat...but
A pause, suggesting a realization or change.
I never lived before, never felt before
Expressing a lack of true living and feeling in the past.
Never breathed until I breathed
A metaphorical breath, emphasizing a newfound vitality.
The same air as you
Breathing the same air as the significant other.
I never gave before, always wanted
Prior lack of selflessness in giving.
More
Always desiring more in relationships.
And with one touch I knew I'd
A profound realization of love with a single touch.
Never loved before you
Confirming that true love is experienced with this person.
It's like I never saw a sunrise
Comparing life experiences to seeing a sunrise with a loved one.
Till I woke up by your side
Highlighting the transformative impact of waking up beside someone special.
Like I didn't see the moon until I
Discovering the beauty of the moon through the eyes of a lover.
Saw it in your eyes
Realizing the significance of a kiss through the beloved's eyes.
And never kissed until your lips
First experiences of kissing with the beloved.
Touched mine
I never lived before, never felt before
Reiterating the theme of newfound living and feeling.
Never breathed until I breathed
Emphasizing the transformative breath shared with the loved one.
The same air as you
Recurrence of the metaphor of breathing the same air.
I never gave before, always wanted
Continued desire for more in relationships.
More
Reiteration of the profound impact of a single touch.
And with one touch I knew I'd
Confirmation of never experiencing true love before this person.
Never loved before you
Before you there was no music
Life was devoid of music and rhythm before the significant other.
No rhythm and no rhyme
Expressing a lack of harmony and order in life.
Now life is like a symphony
Life now resembles a symphony with the loved one.
And my heart is alive
Affirming the vitality and liveliness of the heart.
I never lived before, never felt before
Reiteration of the transformative nature of newfound living and feeling.
Never breathed until I breathed
Emphasizing the shared breath with the significant other.
The same air as you
Continued desire for more in the context of love.
I never gave before, always wanted
Confirmation of the profound impact of a single touch in love.
More
And with one touch I knew I'd
-Never loved before you
Affirming that true love was never experienced before this person.
