Lyrics
I want you to lay me down
I desire you to lay me down
I want you to close your eyes and still see me
I wish for you to close your eyes and still visualize me
I want you to hold me close even when you can’t feel me
I long for you to hold me close even when you can't physically sense my presence
welcome every desert storm
I am willing to face and embrace any challenging or difficult situation
I will gladly lock the door for tomorrow
I am ready to shut out the uncertainties of the future by locking the door to tomorrow
we will sleep forevermore
We will rest peacefully and eternally
if I could freeze the warmth of time
If possible, I would preserve the warmth of the present moment
a stone this fragile heart of mine
Describing the vulnerability of the speaker's heart, fragile like a stone
let this be all there is
Expressing a desire for the current state to be the entirety of the experience
let this be all there was
Wishing that the current state is the only reality that existed
let this be all
Hoping that the present is sufficient and complete
you are all I’ll ever know
Affirming that the person addressed is the speaker's entire world
you are all I’ll ever be
Emphasizing the significant role of the addressed person in the speaker's identity
if I could freeze the warmth of time
Reiterating the desire to preserve the warmth of the current moment in time
and stone this fragile heart of mine
Re-emphasizing the fragility of the speaker's heart, using the metaphor of a stone
let this be all there is
Repetition of the desire for the current state to be the entirety of the experience
let this be all there was
Repetition of the wish that the current reality is the only reality that existed
let this be all
Repetition of the hope that the present is sufficient and complete
all there was
Repetition, possibly emphasizing that the current state is all that matters
let this be all there is
Repetition of the desire for the current state to be the entirety of the experience
let this be all
Repetition of the wish that the current reality is the only reality that existed
