Lyrics
I gathered a mountain
The speaker has accumulated a significant amount of emotional burden or experiences.
An ocean of teardrops
Expressing a vast collection of tears shed, indicating immense sadness or pain.
A castle of break-ups
A metaphorical structure built from failed relationships or heartbreaks used as a shield or refuge.
To hide myself in
Seeking solace and protection within this metaphorical construct.
I've waited a lifetime
Implying a prolonged period of waiting for someone to notice or understand the speaker.
For someone to find me
Hoping for recognition or acknowledgment from another person.
For someone to reach me
Desiring someone to connect with emotionally, to initiate a meaningful relationship.
Somewhere to begin
Searching for a starting point or a foundation for a relationship.
Now I'm a woman
Asserting the speaker's maturity or self-realization as an adult.
I can tell by the look in your eyes
Recognizing familiarity or a sense of knowingness in the other person's gaze.
We're no strangers
Feeling a shared history or connection, implying they've encountered each other before.
I can tell by the way that you smile
Observing a comforting or familiar smile, reinforcing the sense of familiarity.
I've painted the sunsets
Metaphorically illustrating creating beauty and memorable moments together.
The dawnings I've missed you
Expressing the sorrow of missing significant events or opportunities together.
The hours I've kissed you
Recalling intimate times spent together, holding onto those memories.
To keep my heart alive
Preserving emotions or passion to sustain the speaker's emotional well-being.
It's the heat of your breathing
Describing the intense intimacy and connection felt through physical sensations.
The way you are whispering
Noting the subtleties of communication and how they affect the speaker deeply.
The urge of your wanting
Feeling the strong desire and longing from the other person.
I can't leave you behind
Expressing the difficulty of moving forward without the other person.
Now I'm a woman
Reaffirming personal growth and maturity in understanding emotions.
I can tell by the look in your eyes
Recognizing the familiarity in the other person's eyes, reinforcing their connection.
We're no strangers
Reiterating the shared history or connection with the other person.
I can tell by the waves in the night
Noticing the emotional turmoil or intensity in the other person's actions or demeanor.
You bring a little hope, bring a little love
Desiring to bring positive emotions and affection into the relationship.
I don't want to own you
Rejecting the idea of possessing or controlling the other person.
I don't want to lead you
Declining to take a leadership role in the relationship, preferring equality.
I just want to love you
Expressing a genuine desire to simply love the other person in their unique way.
In my own way
Emphasizing the sincerity and individuality of the speaker's expression of love.
