Our Song
Emotional Journey in 'Our Song': Love, Longing, and Heartache
Lyrics
It's been a while that I felt this way for you
Expressing that it's been a considerable amount of time since the singer felt this particular way towards the person addressed in the song.
The feelings that I have I bury them inside to protect you
The emotions the singer feels are kept hidden or suppressed internally to safeguard the person they care about.
You pull me up and you draw me out and pull me in again
Describing the way the addressed person influences the singer, alternately drawing them in and pushing them away.
And as it goes, when we get so close, she's here again
When the connection becomes intense or intimate, someone else (possibly an ex-partner) reappears or affects the current relationship.
Baby, I love you
Expressing love directly to the person addressed in the song.
I really do
Reaffirming the sincerity of the love expressed in the previous line.
Do you remember being in my arms
Recalling a moment of intimacy when both were together and singing a shared song.
We were singing along to our song
Reflecting on a shared memory of singing a song together, signifying a bonding experience.
And I didn't want to let you go
Expressing reluctance to let go of the addressed person during a moment that felt special and owned.
Cause for a moment in time it felt like you were mine
The singer felt a temporary possession of the addressed person during that special moment.
And once I did she was back on your mind
However, that feeling faded when the person started thinking or being reminded of someone else.
Baby, I love you
Reiterating the declaration of love to the person addressed in the song.
I really do
Reaffirming the sincerity of the love expressed in the previous line.
Then she started singing our song
The mentioned person starts singing the song that was shared, indicating a possibly shared sentimental attachment.
La la la la la
Repetitive lyrics ("La la la") suggesting the continuation or repetition of the song.
La la la la la
-La la la la la

-Why why why why why
Expressing confusion or questioning regarding a situation or feelings.
I've learned so much
The singer has gained experience or knowledge but feels emotionally drained.
But I've had enough
Despite learning, the singer feels a saturation point or emotional exhaustion.
And everyone's telling me don't give up
Others are advising not to give up on the relationship.
You know that I love you
Reiterating love for the addressed person.
I know you love me too
Belief in reciprocation of love from the addressed person.
So hear me now
Repeated plea to be heard and understood by the addressed person.
Hear me now
-Hear me now
-Hear me now
-Hear me
Continued plea to be heard and understood by the addressed person.
Hear me
-Hear me
-Hear me
-You know that I love you
Reiterating love for the addressed person.
I know you love me too

So hear me now through our song
Expressing a desire for the addressed person to listen and understand through the shared song.
