Christmas Day
Waking Up to Christmas Day: Embracing Love Beyond Time
Lyrics
Time’s not what it tells me
Time doesn't reflect the truth to me or doesn't align with my perception.
Tries to overwhelm me
Trying to overpower or dominate me.
I don’t think I’ll get it back
I doubt I will regain something lost or missed.
Begging that tomorrow
Hoping that the future will be easier to accept or endure.
Is easier to swallow
To make things more acceptable or manageable by hiding imperfections.
Paper over all my cracks
Masking or concealing my shortcomings or weaknesses.
If you could come and get me
Requesting someone to rescue or assist me.
Be there if you let me
Willing to be present if given the chance.
Open up a closing door
Opportunity to open a closing or shutting-off aspect of life.
So when we dream of failure
When we envision failure in our minds.
I won’t have to tell you
Anticipating not having to explain failure to someone.
Should have dreamed a little more
Regretting not dreaming or aspiring more.
And I
Personal reflection or contemplation.
I don’t know if I feel the same
Uncertainty about experiencing the same emotions.
And I
Uncertainty about feeling identical feelings.
I don’t know if I feel the same way
Uncertainty about having the same emotional attachment or sentiments.
Christ it’s getting heavy
Feeling a growing burden or weight on oneself.
But all the flaws you carry
The imperfections or weaknesses one carries are compensated for by another person's strengths.
Are making up for what I lack
Someone else's flaws compensate for what I lack or don't possess.
Choking up just hearing
Emotionally affected upon hearing someone cry.
You crying in the kitchen
Observing emotional distress in an everyday setting.
To a Painting of a Panic Attack
Witnessing a representation or depiction of intense anxiety or distress.
But I don’t need a reason
Asserting that no specific justification is needed.
Darling I can tell that the years won’t get in the way
Confident that time won't hinder the relationship.
Like knowing there’s no ceiling
Knowing there are no limits or boundaries to potential growth.
Kind of like the feeling
Similar to the sensation of waking up on Christmas morning.
Of waking up on Christmas Day
Feeling an overwhelming sense of joy, akin to Christmas morning.
And I
Realizing that emotions align similarly.
Now I know that I feel the same
Acknowledging that emotions are in sync.
And I
Confirming that emotions are reciprocated.
Now I know that I feel the same way
Confirming mutual emotional alignment or attachment.
