Lyrics

You brought me out to the desert

You led me into a challenging situation or environment

I wandered the cactus and sand

I navigated through difficulties represented by cacti and sand

You carried a bucket of water in Your hand

You provided essential support or sustenance

You knew my intentions were noble

You were aware of my good intentions

But I have not read the map for a long, long time

I haven't understood the situation correctly for a long time

You kept up the pace and You waited

You maintained the speed and waited patiently

For me to take a look behind

You expected me to reflect on my situation

Why did I have to get so dry before I said...

I regret waiting until I was in a difficult situation before realizing


Don't keep a safe distance away

Expressing a desire for closeness, urging not to keep a distance

I sure don't need personal space when it comes to You

Emphasizing the lack of need for personal space in the relationship

I'm desperately needing a meeting with You

Expressing a strong longing for a meeting or connection


You give me the room to be stupid

Acknowledging the freedom to make mistakes in the relationship

You give me the freedom to run

Granting the freedom to make choices and decisions

You show me the easy way and watch me pick the hard one

Observing guidance provided but opting for a more challenging path

I am tired of the distance between us

Expressing weariness due to emotional or physical distance

Cause I know that it keeps me from intimacy

Recognizing that distance hinders intimacy in the relationship

Its really a matter of physics

Stating that the distance is a result of physical laws

The power of the gravity depends on the proximity and so I say...

Referencing the influence of proximity on gravitational force


Don't keep a safe distance from me

Reiterating the plea for close connection, advising against distance

I sure don't need room to be free from the love of my life

Emphasizing the lack of need for freedom from the significant other

I'm desperately needing a meeting with you

Expressing a strong longing for a meeting or connection (repeated)
