Along the River
Love's Flow: Navigating Life's River of Emotions
Lyrics
Could you be the one who´s there through the tears and through the laughter
Asking if the person can be supportive during both difficult and joyous times
Could you pull me closer at night and see what the morning brings
Requesting for intimacy and willingness to face the uncertainties together
Would you live your life with me just as easily as water
Questioning if the person is willing to live harmoniously and adaptably
Flows down by the mountainside when snow melts away at spring
Comparing commitment to the consistency of water flow during springtime
Life is just like a river running through the times
Life symbolized as a river, flowing through different periods
And I´ve been floating on a wood raft
Metaphorically floating through life's challenges on a fragile raft, waiting for someone
Hoping you would come
Hoping for the presence of a particular person
No one has ever broken through my loneliness
Expressing a history of isolation or difficulty in connecting with others
And no one could have guessed
Highlighting the unexpectedness of finding someone significant
I could be right there for you
Offering support or companionship in a similar way to sunlight
Just as easily as sunshine
Comparing availability and warmth to the consistent return of sunlight in spring
Wakes up all the flowers each year
Symbolizing the renewal and awakening of emotions or love
In springtime and lets them grow
Metaphor for nurturing a relationship and allowing it to flourish
The river rushes mightily forth
Describing the force and energy of the river
When we walk along the shore line
Imagery of walking together by the river, hinting at togetherness
I could be like breeze in the air
Willingness to be a comforting and gentle presence
And gently caress your hair
Symbolic gesture of care and affection
And if I whisper in your ear I´m in love with you
Expressing feelings of love softly and intimately
Would you look back at me and say: You feel the same way too
Asking for reciprocation of affection and emotions
And if I ask you will you always stay with me?"
Seeking reassurance about staying together in the future
What would the answer be?
Prompting for an answer regarding commitment and staying together
