Lyrics
Off a plane, down the narrow halls
Arriving from a plane, navigating through narrow halls
On a train, to a place where it all falls
Traveling by train to a place where everything falls into place
Together
Emphasizing togetherness
Baby boy come laugh with me
Inviting a male companion to share laughter
Baby boy come smile with me
Inviting a male companion to share smiles
You're the sister of my dreams
Describing someone as the ideal sister in dreams
You're the brother who believes in me
Describing someone as a supportive brother who believes in the speaker
And makes me better
Acknowledging that this person makes the speaker better
I came, I saw
Summarizing experiences: came, saw, learned how to be
I learned how to be
Expressing personal growth and learning
I left, I was
Departing and being in a certain state
I took all you taught me
Taking with them all the teachings received
At the dock, it's what I came for
Being at a dock for a specific purpose
Keys to locks, to a place that I'll call home
Obtaining keys to locks, finding a place to call home forever
Forever
Expressing a lasting connection and commitment
Baby boy don't grow so fast
Advising a male companion not to grow too fast
Baby boy please make it last
Requesting to cherish the present moment
On my own I'll soon let go
Indicating a personal journey of letting go and independence
All to you I'll always owe
Acknowledging a perpetual debt to someone
I came, I saw
Summarizing experiences: came, saw, learned how to be
I learned how to be
Reiterating the theme of personal growth and learning
I left, I was
Reflecting on being in a certain state after departing
I took all you taught me
Affirming the retention of acquired knowledge
I hold you so dear
Expressing deep affection for someone
My stars, I keep near
Keeping close the metaphorical stars, symbolizing cherished things
I threw my heart in the lake
Metaphorically throwing one's heart into a lake, taking a risk
Clayton never forsakes me
Mentioning someone named Clayton as a steadfast and reliable presence
Lights me up
Highlighting the positive impact of Clayton in illuminating the speaker's life
Makes me its' wildest dreams
Describing Clayton as the embodiment of the speaker's wildest dreams
Planted my feet in your soil
Symbolizing roots and connection to a place through soil
Made of your sweet love and joy
Creating a metaphor using love and joy as building blocks
Tie my soul up to the trees
Metaphorically tying one's soul to trees, expressing a connection to nature
Fly away with my own voice
Expressing a desire for personal expression and freedom
