I Love You
Unspoken Love: Sarah McLachlan's Melodic Embrace
Lyrics
I have a smile
I am expressing joy or happiness.
Stretched from ear to ear
My happiness is evident and extends broadly.
To see you walking down the road
Observing your presence as you walk along the road.
We meet at the lights
We come together at the traffic lights.
I stare for a while
I gaze at you for an extended period.
The world around us disappears
The world around us fades away, leaving just us.
It's just you and me
Our connection creates a sense of isolation and optimism.
On my island of hope
Metaphorical reference to a hopeful place shared by both.
A breath between us could be miles
A small distance between us feels significant.
Let me surround you
Expressing a desire to envelop and protect you.
My sea to your shore
Comparing the depth of emotions to the vastness of the sea.
Let me be the calm you seek
Wishing to bring tranquility and peace to your life.
Oh, and every time I'm close to you
When in close proximity, words become insufficient.
There's too much I can't say
Feeling overwhelmed with unspoken emotions.
And you just walk away
You walk away despite my inability to express myself.
And I forgot to tell you I love you
Realizing the failure to convey love in the moment.
And the night's too long
Nights feel prolonged and lonely without you.
And cold here without you
Expressing the emotional coldness in your absence.
I grieve in my condition
Experiencing sadness given the circumstances.
For I cannot find the words to say, "I need you so"
Struggling to articulate the depth of my need for you.
Oh, and every time I'm close to you
Similar to line 17, expressing difficulty in communication.
There's too much I can't say
Feeling the weight of unexpressed sentiments.
And you just walk away
You walk away, possibly due to the unspoken complexity.
And I forgot to tell you
Realizing the omission of expressing love.
I love you
Conveying the belated expression of love.
And the night's too long
Nights are extended and cold in your absence.
And cold here without you
Reiterating the loneliness without you.
I grieve in my condition
Expressing sadness given the circumstances (repeated).
For I cannot find the words to say, "I need you so"
Struggling to articulate the depth of my need for you (repeated).
