Half the time you do not listen, half the time you have your
Expressing that the listener is not attentive half of the time.
Head in the sand, your heart in your hand and you

Have the time to ask the questions, then you walk out on the answers

But I swear to you that one day you will understand

You will understand

If you have the time to hold the hand of the one who comes from the land

Will begin to see the sunrise, and the light that is in her eyes

And I swear to you that one day, you will understand
Reassuring the listener that understanding will come with time.
You will understand

Half the time I say I love you all I mean is that I want to be the man

That you hold in the hand of your heart
Symbolizing a deep connection by being held in the hand of the listener's heart.
If you carry me forever, if we part we'll be together
