How I Need You
Yearning Echoes: Embracing Vulnerability in 'How I Need You'
Lyrics
I’m awake, I can feel the air
I am awake, and I can sense the presence of the surrounding air.
Yes I feel I feel
A confirmation of the intense feelings being experienced.
I stretch through the space between us
I reach out emotionally across the distance that separates us.
Yes I feel I can feel
Reiterating the heightened emotional sensitivity.
Throw my hands up in the air for how I need you
Expressing a strong emotional need by raising hands in the air.
Nothing there to compare to how I need you
No comparison to the profound need felt for the person.
Lost all control, bring my knees to the floor
Admitting a loss of control, dropping to the knees in desperation.
I begged the ghost to bring you
Pleading with an unseen force or entity (ghost) to bring the person closer.
Yes I feel I feel
Reiteration of intense feelings.
Flicker of hope as I brush away the tears
Feeling a glimmer of hope while wiping away tears.
Yes I feel I feel
Confirming the continued emotional experience.
Throw my hands up in the air for how I need you
Expressing the need again through physical gestures.
Nothing there to compare to how I need you
Stating the incomparable nature of the need for the person.
Give into the needing
Yielding to the intense emotional requirement.
Breath into the feeling
Encouraging a deep breath to fully experience the emotion.
I’m awake I’m healing
Acknowledging wakefulness and the process of healing.
Now I admit what I’m feeling
Admitting and expressing the true depth of feelings.
It’s so real.
Affirming the reality of the emotions experienced.
Throw my hands up in the air for how I need you
Repeating the physical gesture to emphasize the ongoing need.
Nothing there to compare to how I need you
Reiterating the incomparable nature of the profound need.
