Lyrics
when you were depressed and
Expressing a past time of the person being depressed
you put your head on my chest
Physical comfort provided by placing the head on the speaker's chest
and you told me that you were tired of being tough
Conveying weariness with the burden of being strong
i took you by the hand and
Speaker takes the depressed person's hand, indicating support
told you i understand
Assuring understanding of the struggles shared
and you told me
Expressing the belief that the speaker's support is insufficient
that could never be enough
Emphasizing the perceived inadequacy of the support provided
but i will walk with you down the avenue though the streets are made of glass
Commitment to accompany the person through challenges
and we will tread lightly on our heavy feet and avoid all of the cracks
Walking cautiously to navigate difficulties in the relationship
it's a fragile place that we've ended in and one wrong move could shatter
Describing the relationship as delicate, with potential for damage
but in the end will it matter
Raising the question of whether the challenges will have lasting significance
when i was depressed and
Reciprocal experience of the speaker being depressed
i put my head on your chest and i told you
Seeking comfort by placing the head on the other person's chest
i could never be enough
Expressing self-doubt and feeling inadequate
you took me by the hand and
The other person takes the speaker's hand, reciprocating support
told me you understand and i told you
Assuring understanding of the speaker's struggles
that my best wasn't enough
Speaker feeling that their best efforts fall short
but i will walk with you down the avenue though the streets are made of glass
Reiterating the commitment to walk together despite challenges
and we will tread lightly on our heavy feet and avoid all of the cracks
Navigating the difficulties cautiously to avoid further issues
it's a fragile place that we've ended in and one wrong move could shatter
Describing the relationship as fragile with potential for breaking
but in the end will it matter
Questioning the long-term impact of the challenges faced
but i will walk with you down the avenue though the streets are made of glass
Repetition of the commitment to accompany despite fragility
and we will tread lightly on our heavy feet and avoid all of the cracks
Continuing to navigate challenges cautiously to avoid harm
it's a fragile place that we've ended in and one wrong move could shatter
Emphasizing the fragility of the relationship and potential consequences
and if you'd asked me then i'd have told you that none of it would matter
Reflecting on the past and the belief that challenges won't matter
but i will walk, i will walk, i will walk
Reiteration of the commitment to walk together despite uncertainties
