Lyrics
Hey
Expression of greeting or attention
Only when I'm with you
Feeling fearless only in the presence of the addressed person
Do I feel no fear
Highlighting a sense of security and comfort when with the addressed person
Xbox, late night
Mention of spending late nights playing Xbox together
Like we're never gonna sleep
Emphasizing an extended period of wakefulness as a couple
That's us alright here
Confirmation of the relationship's characteristics
Oh, oh, oh
Repetition for emphasis or emotional expression
Only when I'm with you
Reiteration of feeling clear only in the presence of the addressed person
Do I feel so clear
Acknowledgment of emotional stability provided by the addressed person
You stabilise
Attributing the ability to navigate through challenges to the addressed person
Steady choppy water
Mention of navigating through turbulent times together
Woah, I know
Expressing awareness of the challenges faced
It's a lot of pressure to give you
Acknowledging the difficulty of meeting expectations
Know I wouldn't ask
Assuring sincerity in requests due to desperation
If I wasn't desperate
Stating the urgency of the situation
It's a natural thing
Reflection on the inevitability of challenges
No one controls the wind
Emphasizing the lack of control over external factors
So I'd never blame you
Expressing understanding and absence of blame
Sailing away just like you always
Reference to the partner sailing away, possibly metaphorical
Always
Repetition for emphasis or emotional expression
Sailing away from me
Reiteration of the partner moving away
Maybe in time we'll meet again
Hope for a future reunion after a challenging period
When the ice we dance on
Metaphor of dancing on thin ice, signifying a precarious situation
Ain't so thin
Anticipation of improved circumstances
Once the flora brings back fauna
Reference to the return of life and balance
When we're stabilised
Hope for stability in the relationship
Stabilised
Repetition for emphasis or emotional expression
On this choppy water
Emphasis on stability amid challenges
Only you do that thing I like
Unique quality or action appreciated in the partner
With my name
Reference to the partner saying the speaker's name in a special way
Spoke so soft then cut
Transition from softness to intensity in communication
To the rage
Confrontation leading to emotional intensity
Adrenaline's, your best friend
Highlighting adrenaline as a response to challenges
Oh
Expression of intensity or emotion
Maybe in time we'll meet again
Reiteration of hope for a future reunion
When the ice we dance on
Metaphor of dancing on ice, suggesting a challenging situation
Ain't so thin
Anticipation of improved circumstances
Once the flora brings back fauna
Reference to the return of life and balance
When we're stabilised
Hope for stability in the relationship
Stabilised
Repetition for emphasis or emotional expression
On this choppy water
Conclusion on the challenges faced in the relationship
