Lyrics
I was helpless
I felt powerless and unable to change my situation.
I was hopeless
I was without hope, lacking optimism about the future.
I thought I’d live my life alone
I believed that I would spend my life in solitude.
I was selfish
I acted selfishly, perhaps focused on my own desires.
I was joyless
I experienced a lack of joy or happiness.
Saw my future written in stone
I foresaw a predetermined and unchangeable future.
* But when I met you
Introduction to a positive turning point in the narrative.
It’s like a light turned on
Meeting you had a transformative effect, bringing brightness.
I could see the world in colour
My perspective expanded, and I began to see life vividly.
Are these feelings true
Questioning the authenticity of newfound emotions.
That beautiful smile
Expressing admiration for a beautiful and impactful smile.
I never want to have another
Commitment to cherishing the current relationship.
** You lift me up so high
Highlighting the uplifting effect of the relationship.
When I’m with you I fly
Feeling a sense of elevated joy and freedom in your presence.
You lift me so high
Reiterating the positive impact of the relationship.
You’re like bubbles in that sweet champagne
Comparing the partner to the joyous effervescence of champagne.
Sometimes, I don’t know what to say
Expressing occasional speechlessness due to overwhelming emotions.
It’s all good baby
A general affirmation that everything is going well.
You make me feel some type of way
Describing the partner's unique and special impact on feelings.
Repeat (*, **)
Repetition for emphasis on the positive transformation (**).
